AceShowbiz - Kenan Thompson, the longest-running cast member in "Saturday Night Live" history, left a whopping $1,500 tip on a $1,400 bill at the show's afterparty held at Zuma New York City over the weekend, Page Six exclusively reports.
The afterparty, following the episode hosted by Chris Rock, was attended by several celebrity guests, including Adam Sandler and Paul Mescal. Thompson ordered the bone-in ribeye with truffles while Sandler opted for the restaurant's tuna nigiri.
Sandler, who made a surprise appearance on "SNL," was reportedly the first to arrive at the star-studded soirée. Sandler later joined Rock at his VIP table with "SNL" creator Lorne Michaels, and fellow stand-up comedians Dave Chappelle and Aziz Ansari.
Gracie Abrams, who was the musical guest on "SNL," attended the afterparty as well with her rumored boyfriend, Mescal, who hosted the show a week prior. They were also spotted at the premiere afterparty for "Gladiator II" in Los Angeles in November.
Other guests in attendance included "SNL" stars Marcello Hernandez, J.J. Abrams, Jackson Mahomes, Simu Liu, and Devon Walker.
