Everyone is still talking about Katt Williams’ interview on Shannon Sharpe’s “Club Shay Shay” podcast, including Saturday Night Live.
The NBC sketch show poked fun at the interview, providing an eight-hour “extended cut” with Ego Nwodim posing as the comedian.
“Three things are true about me. I am 5’3, I have never told a lie, and I am 6’3,” she (as Williams) tells Devon Walker’s Sharpe.

“Before me he was saying, ‘Probably. Probably. I think we might,'” he said.
Being met with even more obvious disbelief from Walker’s Sharpe, this Williams pushed back. “How are you gonna challenge me, Shannon? I’m the one who invented fruit…before me, trees wasn’t bringing nothing to the table.”
The promo for the entire, lengthy interview promised much more, including stuff that everyone on the crew is still trying to figure out. Like, how Nwodim’s Williams claims he’s the only man to have ever said every word at once, in a single word. Huh?
