Michelle Wolf: Kim K called me for SNL monologue!

Comedian Michelle Wolf stated that she wrote Kim Kardashian's monologue for her October 9, 2021, appearance on Saturday Night Live. Wolf made this claim during her recent free stand-up special, "For Linda," released on her YouTube channel. She asserted that Amy Schumer later took credit for writing the monologue, a point Wolf highlighted with a sarcastic remark about the quality of the jokes.

Wolf explained that this initial collaboration led to an ongoing professional relationship. Kim Kardashian reportedly now contacts Wolf for various comedy writing tasks, from punch-ups on Skims commercials to material for significant speaking engagements, such as Kardashian's appearance at The Roast of Tom Brady. Wolf shared that Kanye West was upset with her personally, which she found amusing given her background.

This revelation comes amidst public perception, fueled by appearances on shows like "The Kardashians" and "Watch What Happens Live," that Amy Schumer was the primary comedic force behind Kardashian's SNL performance. Schumer's interviews, where she discussed her connection with Kardashian and SNL, did not mention Wolf's involvement, leading to speculation about credit.

Wolf's past work includes hosting the White House Correspondents' Dinner. She noted that as a new mother, she is less concerned with audience opinions, which emboldens her to speak more freely about her professional experiences and clients.
