She's just so cute. She has a very unique and hard to pronounce name and I liked the jokes they made about it. Her tips were helpful especially the tip about her name sounding like inertia.
If you don't know her, she is a two-time Oscar-nominated actress. Her first nomination was for Atonement, where she was only 13 years old. Her credits include Hanna, Brooklyn, and The Grand Budapest Hotel.
Saoirse name lyrics: It's Saoirse with an er Not Saoirse with an or 'Cause Saoirse with an or Goes or not er It's sh instead of ss And er instead of ee Simple as can be It's Saoirse. See.
Anyone who attended a Catholic high school in the United States can relate to this wonderful film, just like anyone who is Irish-American and/or Italian-American can relate to the superb film, “Brooklyn.”
Why is everyone hating on this girl and her monologue. Pretty much every monologue is something the host experiences or is personal to them. This monologues no different. Leave her alone. Make yourselves useful and go troll trump or some white nationalists
Depends where you're from. Someone might know more than me but I think the difference in pronunciation historically (that happens with a lot of Irish names) has to do with differences in accent.
I dunno if I'd consider 'Meath' to be the Pale: that's more Dublin, Kildare, north Wicklow, and the bits of eastern Meath and south Louth that contain Dublin tendrils. OTOH, she's from Dublin, and that's *definitely* the Pale.
@Rusty Shackleford right! Mine is Fitzpatrick, very Irish. How hard can it be? I get Fitzgerald, Fitsimmons, Fitzwilly, Titspatrick, Pitspatrick...no lie...either called one or got one on a bill, statement.
I am a huge appreciator of saoirse but jen law is also a great actress i just don't understand why she gets so much of hate. Both of these women have shone in their respective choice of movies that they have worked in so far. I don't think one can replace the other.
It’s Saoirse with an “er” Not Saoirse with an “R” Because Saoirse with an “R” goes “arr” not “er” It’s “shh” instead of “sss” “Uh” instead of “E” Simple as can be See, Saoirse!
not gonna lie made me kind of mad how they made her say that her name is "spelled wrong" when it's really just spelled differently than how vowels and consonances work in American English. I think her name is beautiful and she's just so talented, I wish the whole skit wasn't only about her being Irish and her name
I completely agree. The name isn’t English, it’s Gaeilge, and it makes me so upset that an Irish person would say such a thing about a beautiful Irish name. It’s not “too Irish” & it’s not “spelled wrong”. Maybe she’s just trying to please her American colleagues because literally no Irish person would say it’s too Irish or spelled wrong or hard to pronounce
@@serene3175yes, it is. That’s why it makes no sense for her to say it’s spelled wrong etc. it’s an Irish name, so you obviously don’t pronounce it how English pronounce words/letters/etc. Some find this video funny but I actually find it offensive, she’s talking down on her own culture. Non-Irish people might see the name “Siobhán” for example and think it’s pronounced “see-ob-han”, but it’s not, it’s “Shiv-on”, because Si in gaeilge is a “sh” sound, bh is a “v” sound etc. You don’t pronounce Irish letters the same as English letters, why? Because it’s NOT English. If people can’t pronounce it, then that’s their problem. I find her making fun of Irish names in front of Americans so sad, especially given the history
The funny thing is, she’s not even pronouncing her own name right. “Aoi” in gaeilge is pronounced “ee”, so Saoirse is pronounced “seer-sha”, I don’t know why she’s saying “sir sha”
To be honest it annoys me when she said her name is spelt wrong. Like I’m aware it’s hard for her because foreigners can’t pronounce her name but her name is spelt right and it makes absolute sense in Irish!
She will be a force as an actress, probably winning multiple academy awards. She fit right in with the cast in this episode, she could make it as a cast member although she's a serious actress.
Shame Kristen Wiig wasn't in this episode, since Saoirse never shuts up about her. It would've been awesome if they both did a sketch where Saoirse played Kristen's insane number one fan, and she won't leave her alone.
I stg I get more and more respect for her with every movie I see her in. From Lovely Bones to Ammonite. She’s so versatile in the strangest way, to where she should be a character actor perfect for the slightly innocent and completely out-of-your-league love interest in a bad romcom and she basically just went “fuck that” and is really living her best life. Love her.
Easy guys. She's not a comedian or a comedic actress. She also likely had little to do with the writing of this monologue. The writers fully handle it, if the host isn't a comedian. At most she made a suggestion. Maybe not even that. For those of you asking who she is, she's an exceptional dramatic actress. She was in Atonement, The Lovely Bones, The Grand Budapest Hotel and many other quality films. Those are likely the ones most known in the states. Was she the best host for SNL? No. Will she be asked back? No. Did she do her best? Yes. Think of yourselves in her shoes. Most of us would've peed ourselves or vomied and ran off stage if we had to do this.
Yep... confirmed everything I assumed... that she wouldn’t have a single joke that isn’t about how quirky her name is. That’s.... pretty much her whole thing, isn’t it
She is wonderful. I just saw Little Women and she was fantastic. She is quickly becoming one of my favorite actresses.
Try watching Lady Bird 😃
Same😍
I love her, and some day I’m going to tell her

Korcsmaros and The lovely bones. Such a good movie

the song Liza with a Z
In Ireland, saying “goodbye” is actually saying goodbye to everyone at a party for over an hour after you said you were leaving.
Lol Indians are like that too 🤣😂
Germans do that too
Whereas the english goodbye is slapping your knees and going: "Right!"
Enda Farrell Bruh Indians do that
@@mahimakalla1861 dots or feathers..?
She’s so talented and all she gets to talk about is her name. It isn’t even that hard to pronounce once you hear it
Okay the song was really catchy though!
It's a play on Liza Minelli's "Liza with a Z" it goes "Liza with a Z not Lisa with an S cause Liza with a Z goes zzz not sss"
It's Veronique with a V not with a B la laa laaaaa...ok I need to work on that...
Oh... I've been enjoying it way too much... watching it and trying to sing along!

Karen Too bad I couldn’t sing along
Saoirse is such a great talent. Her performance in Ladybird blew me away.
American Pancake I hope she gets an Oscar nomination
@@austinpearce5442 She got one at 13, so all the rest will probably not make much of a difference.
I just saw her in little women and she was incredible !
Saoirse has been nominated for four Oscars and to this day the only joke people can think of is how to say her name
Thats one joke. Im pretty sure people know more jokes than that.
I just saw her in Lady Bird. Its a fucking incredible movie!
@Cockney John yep completely overrated and the mum in it is really annoying.
anz10 that was kind of a point of the mom
Anyone who attended a Catholic high school in the United States can relate to this wonderful film, just like anyone who is Irish-American and/or Italian-American can relate to the superb film, “Brooklyn.”
Saoirse Ronan at 70 years of age: It's difficult to pronounce.. You can just call me cerise
Cersie😂
I love her Irish accent! It made "Brooklyn" all the more delightful.
Saoirse is absolutely adorable - I really enjoy watching her in every show, video, and movie she does - she's always on point and so happy!
"Hey, sore cheese" :)
This was the cutest SNL monologue 😂
She is seriously the most adorable and attractive person ever
ikr she’s perfect
I can never get used to professionals staring at the cue cards. I really like Saoirse films. Hannah was incredible.
Anyone remember her from City of Ember? I'm sure it wasn't that popular of a movie but it was the first movie I saw her in.
Yeah I knew her from that too
How old was she in that? ... I think the first movie I saw her In was atonement , when she was about 8 or 9
Same
That was the first movie I ever saw her in. We actually went on a field trip to see City of Ember at school.
ShifTy 15 OMG THAT WAS HER??? WHATTTT
"Oh, lovely bones, I can't say no to you" hahahaha

Rick Trump is a great man and this was a great monologue
Did anyone come back here after the Liza Minelli "Liza with a z" part in Halston?
I wish her monologue was longer.
*She's cute when singing*
And yet most Irish people would pronounce her name- seersha ....
Karie Reilly, she's from the Pale, and the Pale is... different.
Keith Gaughan I’m from the Pale too !
Depends where you're from. Someone might know more than me but I think the difference in pronunciation historically (that happens with a lot of Irish names) has to do with differences in accent.
itsonlysound interesting! I’m from Meath
I dunno if I'd consider 'Meath' to be the Pale: that's more Dublin, Kildare, north Wicklow, and the bits of eastern Meath and south Louth that contain Dublin tendrils. OTOH, she's from Dublin, and that's *definitely* the Pale.
It's hard to keep my eyes off Saoirse. She's magical.
Ngl, every time she pronounces her name I hear something different
I have a niece named Saoirse, who is 4 today and, like every other Irish person (except Saoirse Ronan), she pronounces it "Seer-sheh", not "Sur-sheh".
@Rusty Shackleford right! Mine is Fitzpatrick, very Irish. How hard can it be? I get Fitzgerald, Fitsimmons, Fitzwilly, Titspatrick, Pitspatrick...no lie...either called one or got one on a bill, statement.
Love how the announcer hesitated a little bit before saying her name.

it was so sad i couldn't even finish it :') it was making me feel sick haha
I'm an Irishman working in the USA.
When I hear Saoirse's voice I long for my homeland.
You should go back then and stay there.

My girl has come so far 😭 I'm so proud of her
I love her voice so adorable.

SHE CALLED HER “LOVELY BONES” bye
I’m kinda noticing that Beck is a lowkey Himbo
I think "Saoirse like inertia" is more helpful than this entire song just sayin'
She is 100 times more talented than Jennifer Lawrence
@@mrsandlerthegreat8003 im not sure which one u mean, but saoirse would never do that.
She is very good but you can't compare with jenifer

I don't think we should always compare artists ,both are incredible women and there is no need to criticize any of them in such way
I love her personality she is so amazing I wish that I could meet her someday, she is my favorite actress!
saoirse ronan is an icon
It’s Saoirse with an “er”
Not Saoirse with an “R”
Because Saoirse with an “R” goes “arr” not “er”
It’s “shh” instead of “sss”
“Uh” instead of “E”
Simple as can be
See, Saoirse!
Hey joy
NGL after hearing the song I'm more confused than ever..
She is such a talented young actress,since she was very little she has done great parts like Atonement ,and she keeps getting better and better !
Her voice is amazing.
The dress is gorgeous.
she's so pure and adorable
man her cheekbones. have been in love with her for over 4 years now
Now Liza with a z is stuck in my head
Lola Bolarianista Liza with a 'z', not Liza with a 's', because Liza with a 's' goes *snuh* .. My mom loves that song.
"little brown girl! "
It's not a hat it's her hair as Liza would say lol
wrong liza sweetie lol
