Donald Trump<\/a> called ‘White Potus’ on Saturday (12.04.25), with Sarah Sherman sporting prosthetic teeth to mimic the British actress, and Aimee – who played Chelsea in the latest series of the anthology satire – was less than impressed.<\/p>\nShe wrote on her Instagram Story on Sunday (13.04.25): “I did find the SNL thing mean and unfunny.<\/p>\n
“Such a shame cuz I had such a great time watching it a couple weeks ago.<\/p>\n
“Yes, take the p*** for sure \u2014 that’s what the show is about \u2014 but there must be a cleverer, more nuanced, less cheap way?”<\/p>\n
\nAimee made her comments while also clarifying her own recent remarks about being worried HBO didn’t “want” her for ‘The White Lotus’ because of her “ugly” looks.<\/p>\n
\nShe wrote: “Nobody at HBO called me ugly!! Jeez, as if! I clearly say that was my own paranoid thought.<\/p>\n
\n“Nobody at HBO would say that. My point in the article was how our [brains] play tricks on us. Please read carefully before getting angry at me.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cWhen someone (not a producer) told me Mike fought for me it was said in a nice way. I just spiralled about it because of my own imposer syndrome. That was my point.<\/p>\n
\n“Just want to clear that up because HBO have been nothing but super supportive.<\/p>\n
\n“So to conclude today\u2019s rant @hbo kind and supportive and never wronged me so leave them alone [cry laughing emoji] @nbcsnl \u2013 mean.(sic)”<\/p>\n
\nAimee then thanked her followers for sending her messages of support.<\/p>\n
\nShe wrote: “On a positive note everyone is agreeing with me about it so I\u2019m glad I said something instead of going in on myself.”<\/p>\n
\nThe 31-year-old star shared a number of the comments she’d received that criticised ‘SNL’s depiction of her.<\/p>\n
\nShe added: “Omg I\u2019ve got THOUSANDS of messages in agreement with me since posting that. Thanks guys. Glad I said something.(sic)”<\/p>\n
\nAnd Aimee later revealed ‘Saturday Night Live’ had been in contact with her, though she didn’t specify who from the show.<\/p>\n
\nShe wrote: “I’ve had apologies from \u2018SNL\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nThe ‘Sex Education’ star recently expressed her frustration at how much focus the prominent gap in her teeth has received.<\/p>\n
\nShe told GQ Hype: “It makes me really happy that it\u2019s symbolising rebellion and freedom, but there\u2019s a limit.<\/p>\n
\n“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\u2019s nice because they\u2019re not criticising.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cAnd, I have to go there\u2026 I don\u2019t know if it was a man would we be talking about it this much? It\u2019s still going on about a woman\u2019s appearance.\u201d<\/p>\n
