Seth Meyers and Kristen Wiig have known each other for a decade, and Meyers thought it was about time they forgave each other for past problems they’ve had.
“Sometimes when you have such a long and close relationship with someone, there are moments when feelings get hurt,” said Meyers. “So I thought with the time we have together right now, we would make amends for any past indiscretions we’ve committed against once another.”
Meyers apologized for not responding to Wiig’s emails right away. “It took me a couple of days because I was on vacation.”
Wiig’s apology jokingly revealed that she had always thought Meyers spelled his last name “Miyerrhzzz.” She added, “Also I didn’t know that your first name is Seth,” adding that she had always thought his name was Beth.
As they continued to ask each other for forgiveness, Wiig revealed she had sold Meyers’ name to a Japanese energy drink that cures male impotence. If Meyers ever goes to Japan, he will be known as Impotence Man, she told him. That’s not all. Wiig once dosed Meyers with LSD.
“I thought sending you on a psychedelic journey would be really funny,” she said. “My son’s face transformed into Larry King’s face,” said Meyers. “Do you think that’s funny?”
“A baby with old man face wearing suspenders? I actually don’t think there’s anything funnier,” said Wiig. As their conversation unfolded, things briefly spiraled out of control. Water guns and headphone court were involved, watch below.
