As a seasoned gamer who’s been around the block a few times, let me tell you, watching Marcello Hernández rise to fame with his Domingo character has been nothing short of a rollercoaster ride. It’s not every day that we witness an SNL cast member become a viral sensation overnight!
On Saturday nights, “Saturday Night Live” serves as a key pillar for NBC. This upcoming season in 2024’s television lineup is particularly significant because the hosts for “SNL” are part of its historic Season 50. Recently, Ariana Grande hosted for her second time, and one sketch featuring a group of bridesmaids’ revealing speech has become incredibly popular, with its star, Marcello Hernández, experiencing a significant boost in recognition as a result.
For Season 50, Marcello Hernández – who had been an underestimated supporting actor for the previous two seasons – was moved up to the main cast. In a recent “Bridesmaid Speech” skit, he made a significant appearance, portraying a character named Domingo. The scene revolves around a group of bridesmaids singing their speech to newlyweds, set to Sabrina Carpenter’s “Espresso,” but they casually reveal that the bride had an encounter with Domingo during her bachelorette party. In a funny turn of events, Domingo unexpectedly joins their performance at the end of the skit, adding a memorable moment to the show.
Recently, Hernández took the stage for a standup act in Minnesota. A TikTok video highlights how he’s navigating his newfound fame from Domingo. Give it a watch!

During his stand-up performance on Saturday Night Live, the cast member casually referenced the bridesmaids sketch, implying its popularity by saying “it’s become a thing.” Lately, Marcello Hernández seems to have been frequently asked about this sketch due to its popularity, as he felt the audience was eager for him to quote it. In his own words on stage:
How about this: Here’s a proposal. Let’s execute this once, after which we both agree to set our phones aside. In return, I’ll share the jokes I’ve prepared for the show with you. I need to do it at the start because it’s become a regular thing, believe me. The response has been quite extraordinary, it’s amazing!
Despite appearing reluctant, he seemed eager to complete the task so he could share his prepared jokes with the audience and express his feelings about his life through the phrase “this is what my life has become.” As soon as he took on the character, the crowd erupted in enthusiasm, echoing his lines.
He added an exciting touch by passing the microphone to one of the audience members, encouraging him to repeat whatever the groom said before everyone shouted in unison “direct from Domingo.” This was a lively, rock-star style moment for the Saturday Night Live (SNL) star, showcasing just how quickly the sketch has gained popularity.
After the success of the sketch, it’s intriguing to ponder when Domingo will make his next appearance! Hernández, one of the youngest cast members, joined SNL at 25 and quickly became a featured player. It’s exciting to witness him gaining prominence as part of the show.
On this coming Saturday, don’t miss the upcoming episode of SNL, featuring John Mulaney as host and Chappell Roan as the musical guest. The announcement of this duo has left fans excitedly anticipating the show!
