'SNL' mocks Peloton ad in cold open featuring Fallon, Rudd, McKinnon
"I'd like to tell you about Peloton," first lady Melania Trump says in the sketch.
Peloton got the "Saturday Night Live" treatment in this week's cold open sketch.
In it, first lady Melania Trump, played by Cecily Strong, appears to be a Peloton spokeswoman.
"I'd like to tell you about Peloton," she said. "Are you scared woman who's trapped inside a mansion? Why not imagine biking away from it all on Peloton? Merry Christmas to me."
Peloton shares slumped after the home exercise company released a commercial that some called "sexist," leaving the company on track for the second-worst weekly performance in their history.
