Ryan Reynolds Spoofs Kanye West on SNL

The 39-year-old plays the anti-hero in Marvel’s latest cinema release, and following its success fans have been campaigning for the character to host the popular late night show.

In a new video on Saturday (20Feb16), Ryan explained to fans why Deadpool would not be able to present SNL by mimicking leaked audio which reportedly featured the Bound 2 rapper.

“Listen up, Lorne Michaels,” he said, addressing the show’s creator. “SNL took my fucking Life of Pablo album without asking. Now I’m bummed. That and Rip Taylor. Fake ass! I’ve got the biggest opening rated-R movie of all time. Are they fucking crazy? I’m 50 percent more influential than MC Hammer, Apostle Judas Iscariot, the KIA Sorento. 10 percent more influential than Barbara Bush, the Muppets, Bob Newhart. Sixty percent more influential than the iPhone 5, shredded cheese and Dr. Ruth. Seven percent less influential than the Urban Dictionary!”

Ryan/Deadpool’s speech echoed the tape which leaked on Thursday (18Feb16), highlighting the 38-year-old’s alleged meltdown backstage at the show when he was the musical guest over the weekend (13-14Feb16).

Sources claimed Kanye threatened to walk off the stage during the live broadcast, but he eventually went on as scheduled, and performed two new songs from his T.L.O.P. (The Life of Pablo) album.

In the clip, a man who sounds like Kanye raged, “Look at that shit. They took my fucking stage off of SNL without asking me… Now I’m bummed. That and Taylor Swift, fake ass.”

The voice can also be heard saying he was “50 percent (more influential than) Stanley Kubrick, Picasso, Apostle Paul, fucking Picasso and Escobar” before adding “Don’t fuck with me” numerous times, which Deadpool also mimicked in his audio.

Kanye is yet to comment on the leaked audio to confirm or deny if its him.
