You Won’t Believe How ‘SNL’s’ Mockery Broke White Lotus Star Aimee Lou Wood

Aimee Lou Wood isn’t laughing at “Saturday Night Live.”

The 31-year-old “White Lotus” actress called out the sketch comedy show on Sunday for how she was depicted in Saturday’s “The White Potus” skit.

In the sketch, Sarah Sherman portrayed an exaggerated version of Wood’s character from the HBO show, Chelsea, by putting on a British accent and wearing prosthetic teeth.

In another slide, Wood said, “Such a shame cuz I had such a great time watching it a couple weeks ago. Yes, take the piss for sure — that’s what the show is about — but there must be a cleverer, more nuanced, less cheap way?”

She added: “On a positive note, everyone is agreeing with me about it so I’m glad I said something instead of going in on myself.”

The “Sex Education” star then shared several screenshots of fans’ DMs that supported her stance against the sketch.

Alongside one fan DM, Wood wrote, “At least get the accent right, seriously. I respect accuracy even if it’s mean.”

“Omg I’ve got THOUSANDS of messages in agreement with me since posting that,” she wrote in another post. “Thanks guys. Glad I said something.”

Two hours after her initial posts, Wood wrote, “I’ve had apologies from SNL.”

A rep for “SNL” did not get back to The Post.

The “SNL” sketch poked fun at Donald Trump and his tariffs by parodying the characters from the third season of “The White Lotus.” It starred James Austin Johnson as Trump, Chloe Fineman as Melania Trump, Mikey Day as Donald Trump Jr., Alex Moffat as Eric Trump, Scarlett Johansson as Ivanka Trump, Jon Hamm as Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Beck Bennett as Putin.

Wood has said before that she doesn’t enjoy the viral chatter about her teeth.

“It makes me really happy that it’s symbolizing rebellion and freedom, but there’s a limit,” the British star told GQ earlier this month. “The whole conversation is just about my teeth, and it makes me a bit sad because I’m not getting to talk about my work.”

“They think it’s nice because they’re not criticizing,” Wood continued. “And, I have to go there … I don’t know if it was a man would we be talking about it this much? It’s still going on about a woman’s appearance.”

She previously opened up more about how her teeth have shaped her self-confidence since she was a kid in a March 3 Instagram video.

“A big thing for me growing up was my mouth,” Wood said, “because it was the thing that everyone pointed out, and it was the thing that made me different.

“Playing loads of different characters has really helped with my self-confidence surrounding beauty. I’ve had to surrender control a lot,” she added. “The more that you can surrender, the more beautiful you feel.”
