Vice President Kamala Harris made an unexpected appearance on Saturday Night Live (SNL) on November 2, 2024, just days before the presidential election.

A Humorous Start with a "Mirror Image" Moment
The sketch opened like a CNN segment, featuring different candidates. Soon after, Maya Rudolph as Harris stepped in, humorously wishing to speak with someone who could relate to her experience. This set the stage for the real Harris to join, appearing as her "mirror image" and surprising the audience.
