\n\tA Vanity Fair<\/a> clip featuring the cast of Saturday Night Live<\/a> has gone viral after it was edited to remove specific details and some awkward cast reactions to Chloe Fineman<\/a>\u2019s shocking tale of being fired as a camp counselor in her youth. <\/p>\n

\n\tVanity Fair\u2019s video features Fineman alongside Mikey Day<\/a>, Sarah Sherman, Ashley Padilla, Jane Wickline and James Austin Johnson as they test one another in an episode of the mag\u2019s game show series, this one titled \u201cSNL Cast Test How Well They Know Each Other.\u201d One segment finds Fineman polling her colleagues to guess the job she got fired from and later rehired by with a bonus question of \u201cWhy was I fired?\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tDay jokes it was for \u201cracially insensitive comments\u201d while Sherman guesses that Fineman was sacked from a restaurant for a bad attitude. Padilla asks how old she was at the time, and Fineman offers that she was 16. Then she tells the tale. \u201cI was fired as a camp counselor,\u201d Fineman says. \u201cI pantsed a boy. He would lift my shirt all the time. It was a different time. He would be like, \u2018Hey, could I have a hug?\u2019 And then I\u2019d go to hug him and he\u2019d lift my shirt, like a dick. And then I was like, \u2018I\u2019m going to get back at you.\u2019 And so we were on a hike and I was like, \u2018Hey, Ollie, go look over there. It\u2019s a hawk.\u2019 He looked and then I yanked his pants down, and then I was fired.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThat\u2019s how the clip currently plays out on Vanity Fair\u2019s YouTube channel. However, eagle-eyed viewers noted that it\u2019s not the same clip that was originally posted as that version has Fineman detailing that the young camper was 6 years old and when she pulled his pants down, his \u201clittle ding-a-ling was out.\u201d Her colleagues appear floored by the story and in response, Padilla, who looks especially shocked, responds by saying, \u201cOh, honey, I think you\u2019re on a list somewhere.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tIt\u2019s unclear if Vanity Fair responded to online backlash or a publicist\u2019s request to remove the more salacious parts of the story or the awkward cast reactions. The Hollywood Reporter has reached out to a rep for the magazine for comment. Meanwhile, TikTok users were quick to post the before and after clips, one of which can be seen below.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A Vanity Fair clip featuring the cast of Saturday Night Live has gone viral after it was edited…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":589875,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[64,63,288102,134,136283,33892,427,38891],"class_list":{"0":"post-589874","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-chloe-fineman","11":"tag-entertainment","12":"tag-mikey-day","13":"tag-saturday-night-live","14":"tag-tv","15":"tag-vanity-fair"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/589874","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=589874"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/589874\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/589875"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=589874"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=589874"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=589874"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
