Fans go crazy as Maya Rudolph delivers the 'best SNL opening monologue of all time' : 'I love her so much!'

Comedian Maya Rudolph amazed fans during her opening monologue of Saturday Night Live. 

Rudolph, 51, took to the stage on Saturday night and delivered an awe-inspiring Mother's Day-themed performance more than a decade after leaving the late-night sketch show as a full-time cast member. 

The mother-of-four made fans go crazy as she stunned in a black and chrome bodysuit for what was dubbed the 'best SNL opening monologue of all time.' 

Rudolph, who was called 'mother of the house of Rockefeller' by Keenan Thompson, danced and sang as she made comments about motherhood and even referenced her iconic movie and sketch scenes. 

Before she took the stage, Rudolph joined cast members, Bowen Yang and Sarah Sherman, who wished her a happy Mother's Day and branded her 'mother.' 

The performance started as Rudolph sang: 'I'm your mother, I'm your mother, I'm your- oops I made you dance, remember in that movie when I pooped my pants?'

'When you were a baby you pooped your pants and I changed your diaper, I'm your mother,' she added. 

Rudolph and her team of dancers vogued and made their way backstage as she continued on. 

The performance itself was a nod to the 1980s New York ballroom culture, a popular underground LGBTQ+ subculture that led voguing, and coined the phrases 'it's giving' and 'it's serving.' 

In the community, there were 'houses' that were led by 'mothers' who were experienced members of the ball culture scene. Those typically included drag queens, gay men or transgender women who helped guide their 'house children.'  

Much of the culture was seen in the TV show Pose and the documentary film Paris is Burning. 

Pose premiered in 2018 and followed people involved in New York ball culture around the city. Bill Porter, Indya Moore and Dominique Jackson starred in the series. 

'It's Mother's Day y'all, today we celebrate all kinds of mother's. Stepmother's, Godmother's, mother's from another brother, dance moms, octomoms,' Rudolph sang as she was interrupted by comedian Chloe Fineman. 

Finemen stepped in front of Rudolph with a dog dressed in a blue tutu and said: 'What about dog mom's?'

'What about them? And honey, that's not a dog, that's a bi***,' Rudolph said as she continued. 

'Bow down children, I'm your mama. Giving queen, giving drama, this place gave you coneheads, it's 11:30, go to bed,' Rudolph sang. 

She poked fun at the times she played Vice President Kamala Harris and said: 'It's me, Kamala Hunty.' 

'I will also turn this car around if you don't stop hitting your sister,' she added before other cast members chimed in and rated her iconic performance. 

As the mother was 'mothering,' one cast member said that Rudolph was giving 'body-ody-ody,' while Thompson stepped back in and revealed her ratings.

Throughout her impressive performance, she referenced motherly duties and even some of her most iconic movie and skit scenes 

SNL cast member, Chloe Fineman, interrupted Rudolph mid-song and asked the comedian if dog mom's were included in the holiday 

'Yes mother, the results are in,' Thompson said as the camera pointed to three cast members, two of which gave her a 10, while another said 'I'm gagged.' 

Scorecards were used frequently in ballroom culture as judges watched and rated performers in competitions.  

Rudolph made her way back on stage as she referenced other well-known SNL skits. 

'Giving gorgeous, serving pretty, they did it live from New York City.' 

'I'm your mother, I'm your mother, I'm your.... mother,' Rudolph sang as she opened a giant fan and ended her performance. 

Fans flocked to social media to comment on her impressive monologue. 

'Maya Rudolph just did the best SNL opening monologue of all time. Mother truly was mothering,' one said. 

Another wrote: 'The Recording Academy better start engraving Maya Rudolph's Grammy.' 

'15/10, absolutely ZERO notes,' another said. 

Earlier last week, Rudolph teased her return to Saturday Night Live in a promo as Andrew Dismukes and Chloe Troast discovered the actress hiding in a closet after hearing strange laughter behind a door as they walked down the halls of 30 Rock.

After seeing the pair's startled expressions, in response to seeing her sitting alone in a dimly lit room holding a bowl of porridge, Rudolph said: 'Oh, hello there. I wasn't expecting visitors.' 

When asked how long she had been in there, the mother-of-four revealed she 'never left.'

'Maya Rudolph just did the best SNL opening monologue of all time. Mother truly was mothering,' a fan said online 

During her performance, three cast members rated her. Two gave her a 10 while the third rated her 'I'm gagged'

'Why would I leave? I have everything I need here. My books, my porridge, and my dear friend Kenny,' she explained.

To Dismukes and Troast's horror, her friend Kenny, turned out to be a mop with googly eyes.

Troast reminded Rudolph of her upcoming hosting duties, which prompted her to ask the duo to close the door so she could 'freshen up.'

By the time Dismukes and Troast turn around, Rudolph is fully dressed and ready on the other side of the door.

'Hey guys! See you Saturday,' Rudolph tells the SNL stars after catching them off guard.

Previously, Rudolph served as a Saturday Night Live cast member from 2000-2007. Saturday night was her third time hosting the show, following her last appearance in 2021.
