[Michael] Che, starting to crack,\u201d Davidson said, before he went on to joke about a few different topics related to himself, including taking part in the Riyadh Comedy Festival this year and that he\u2019s about to become a father.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\t\u201cSo yeah, in case you\u2019re wondering why I had to do a show in Saudi Arabia, we\u2019re losing millions on this ferry,\u201d he joked. \u201cI assume that\u2019s what the article says.

We thought the Staten Island Ferry sounded too depressing, so now it\u2019s called the Titanic 2,\u201d <em>The King of Staten Island<\/em> star said. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\t\u201cThat\u2019s right, and it\u2019s actually going very well,\u201d Jost continued. \u201cRecently, we got paid by Nike to put an ad on it for the New York City Marathon.\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tDavidson then took over the bit, poking fun at none other than Lorne Michaels: \u201cExactly. If Lorne Michaels has taught us anything, it\u2019s that you never ever give up, even if everyone says the time has come and Tina Fey is ready to take over.\u201d  <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tEarlier on Saturday, <em>The Pickup<\/em> actor told <em>People<\/em> he\u2019d \u201cdo anything for Lorne,\u201d adding that he would return to show if the <em>SNL<\/em> boss asked him to.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\t\u201cI had a great time hosting last time, and anytime you get that call, it\u2019s an honor and a privilege,\u201d he added. \u201cIt\u2019s always relevant, it\u2019s a hot show.
