Ariana Grande & Bowen Yang Kiss To Break “Crazy Tension” In ‘SNL’ Sketch

One of the Saturday Night Live moments that got a roaring reaction this week was Ariana Grande and Bowen Yang kissing.

The moment occurs in a sketch where Grande plays a mother meeting her son’s (Michael Longfellow) new boyfriend (Yang).

The family plays charades in the sketch, and Michael notes that his mom “is a teensy bit competitive.”

“Oh, hush honey, I do not,” Grande says.

As they start the game of charades, Bowen showcases his skill at charades, which shows another side of Grande.

“Heck yeah! In your face, Diane,” Bowen tells Grande’s character, to which she replies, “Well, that wasn’t necessary.”

Bowen tries to clear it up that he was just playing around and Grande’s Diane asks, “You got a tiny pecker or something?”

Grande’s Diane becomes unhinged and says, “Well, you must be compensating for something, you poor, sick loser.”

Bowen and Grande swap more insults until the former has enough and stands up to his boyfriend’s mother by physically fighting her.

Ultimately, Bowen earns Grande’s Diane’s respect, saying, “I need my son to have a man like you who will protect him because my son is so weak.”

Bowen adds, “I’m sorry things got so heated.”

Grande reaches over to Bowen and leans in for a kiss with the live audience erupting in cheers.

“Well, to be fair, they did have crazy tension,” Jane Wickline’s character said.
