It's hard to forget the nights when Hollywood's A-listers take the stage at Saturday Night Live. But when Kristen Stewart made her debut in 2017, she gave us a moment that still echoes in SNL's corridors. It all started with a strong monologue. Kristen addressed President Trump's tweets about her relationship with Robert Pattinson and made a bold statement, expressing that she is so gay. And then, in true unscripted fashion, the Personal Shopper actress dropped the one word that no host ever wants to say live on network TV: the F-bomb.
Recollecting the evening, Stewart shared, “I got through every single dress rehearsal without ever swearing in a scene... and, of course, I did in like the first five minutes." Immediately feeling the weight of her slip, she confessed, "I felt so bad about it. I just came offstage apologizing profusely... And they were really nice about it. They were like, 'We still have an entire show to do, don't think about it.' "

A night of laughter and triumph
While the F-bomb was the talk of the town for a brief moment, the episode offered so much more. Stewart played the lesbian lover to Vanessa Bayer in a humorous Totino's pizza rolls fake Super Bowl ad. Explaining the concept behind the sketch, she mused, “There's no better time than right now to do a skit about a completely unimportant woman in the environment of a completely male-dominated testosterone show."

The SNL night remains iconic not only for the accidental F-bomb but also for showcasing Stewart's adaptability and versatility as an actress. Whether she's making us laugh in a comedy sketch or moving us in dramatic films, Stewart's presence in Hollywood is undeniable. Today, as we look back at that night in 2017, it serves as a gentle reminder of how unpredictable live TV can be and how an unscripted moment can become a timeless piece of entertainment history.
