Ahead of the 95th annual Oscars on Sunday, the Saturday Night Live cold open featured a live red carpet segment and what audiences can expect ahead of the ceremony.

Marcello Hernandez and Heidi Gardner played Mario Lopez and “Maria Menounos or Kit Hoover,” hosts of Access Hollywood‘s Oscars Red Carpet Show. “We are so excited to have been standing outside the Dolby Theatre for almost 153 hours,” Hernandez’s Lopez said. “But it’s all worth it to ask Angela Bassett if she really did the thing.”

Gardner’s host also referenced Will Smith’s infamous smackdown of Chris Rock during last year’s ceremony, saying, “This year, to make sure nothing crazy happens, the Academy hired a new head of security: notoriously calm and sane person, Mike Tyson.”

When asked about what new security measures are in place, Kenan Thompson’s Tyson, said, “This year, all the nominees have been given tasers, all the seat fillers have been given guns and Jimmy Kimmel has been given a flamethrower.” He added that an Apple AirTag was also slipped into Smith’s pocket ahead of the ceremony so “we know exactly where he’ll be at all times unless, of course, he changed his pants and then he could be anywhere.”

Chloe Fineman’s Jamie Lee Curtis was the next star to appear on the red carpet, where she expressed her love for fellow Oscar nominees, including Cate Blanchett, “because these actresses rule.”

Fineman’s Curtis also noted, “What Ariana DeBose did at the BAFTAs was fun. It was by far the best live rap performance I’ve seen all year. It was incredible.”
