Al Sharpton to Host 'Saturday Night Live'
33 minutes ago
WASHINGTON - Democrat Al Sharpton, whose one-liners and pointed rhetoric have added laughs to the presidential campaign, will host "Saturday Night Live (news - Y! TV)" next month.
Sharpton will host the Dec. 6 show, which also will feature Pink as the musical guest. It could be a natural fit for the preacher, who often uses humor to promote his long-shot candidacy and is known to crack up his rivals during debates.
"He said he was actually — for the first time — nervous," said Sharpton spokeswoman Rachel Noerdlinger.
Other political figures who have appeared on the show include Arizona Republican Sen. John McCain, Jesse Jackson and former Vice President Al Gore (news - web sites).
Although none of Sharpton's rivals for the Democratic nomination have been on, at least three have been depicted. Actors playing John Kerry (news - web sites), John Edwards and Joe Lieberman (news - web sites) courted a real Gore for the vice presidency during Gore's appearance on the show last year.
