Live from Studio 8H, it's Ana de Armas!
The Ghosted star, 34, hosted Saturday Night Live for the first time over the weekend, where she was joined by Karol G as the musical guest.
During her opening monologue, de Armas began by speaking in Spanish, before she explained that she was born in Cuba and learned English when she moved to the United States at age 26 "the way everyone who comes to this country does — watching Friends."
"Who would've thought that the best English tutor would be Chandler Bing? I mean, look at me now. Could I be any better at English?" she added, imitating Matthew Perry's character's sarcastic tone.
The star then spoke about her "magical year," highlighting how she was nominated for an Oscar, before revealing that she will become an American citizen in three weeks. "I am proud to become a citizen because when I moved here, everyone was so welcoming," de Armas said.During the show, de Armas took part in various sketches, including one where she played a singer tasked with creating an iconic producer tag, and another where she portrayed a fluent Spanish speaker in a Spanish class.
One other moment from the show saw the actress parody the upcoming Barbie film, instead centered on American Girl Dolls.
