Is "SNL" hiring a black man?
Stand-up comedian Jay Pharoah — a 22-year-old who can do more than 75 impressions, including  Chris Rock and Orlando Bloom — is expected to become the 4th all-new "SNL" cast member, according to The Comc's Comic. Pharoah's hiring would be significant since "SNL" hasn't added a black cast member in, well, forever. (Keenan Thompson joined the cast in 2003.) In fact, "SNL" was criticized for not having a black man portray Obama — "Community" star Donald Glover was reportedly up for the part.
