As a dedicated follower of David Spade‘s illustrious career, I find it fascinating to delve into his experiences and insights about his time on Saturday Night Live (SNL). The way he handled the misconceptions about his characters being gay is truly commendable. It’s intriguing to see how people could interpret his aloof and languorous character as a sign of homosexuality, when in reality, it was simply a portrayal of a certain personality.
In a conversation on the Fly on the Wall podcast, David Spade discussed his time at Saturday Night Live and disclosed that many viewers thought all of his SNL characters were portrayed as gay. He divulged that people often approached him to inquire about the sexual orientation of the characters he portrayed during the show.
During the podcast interview, Spade mentioned a role he played as a Receptionist, where he was deliberately distant towards people. He explained, “I’d ask questions like, ‘And may I know who you are…? This is in reference to…?’ Often, people would wonder about the gay character I portrayed.
In a subsequent conversation, the actor-comedian responded, “I said, ‘I’m not sure about that.’ To which they replied, ‘You are gay, and everything you do on stage represents a gay character.’
Additionally, the actor admitted that even his mother assumed Spade was gay outside the show’s characters. The host inquired as to why she would think this, and the comedian humorously replied, “She thought I was coming out. Looking back, I can understand why.
Moving on to discuss his other characters, the actor noted that there were some roles where he didn’t immediately recognize famous figures like MC Hammer. In the skit, Hammer says, “Tell him it’s Hammer,” and Spade replies, “And he would know you because…
In a recent episode, Dana Carvey – the show’s host, a well-known comedian from SNL who has recently impersonated President Joe Biden, clarified to listeners that the character of Spade’s receptionist wasn’t about emphasizing sexuality, but rather showcasing personality.
Carvey added in the conversation by saying, “It’s just languorous, not any sexual orientation.”
Beyond just being recognized as a receptionist, the actor is well-known for his iconic portrayal of Dennis Finch, a former executive assistant who surprisingly became a collegiate cheerleader. Rumors also circulated that his father believed him to be gay.
Before his role on Just Shoot Me!, Spade was part of Saturday Night Live from 1990 to 1996. Afterward, he worked on several films with his comedy co-stars from SNL, such as Tommy Boy featuring Chris Farley, Joe Dirt starring Dennis Miller, and the Hotel Transylvania series alongside Adam Sandler.
