SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE Says Goodbye to Kristen Wiig [Video]

Last night SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE said farewell to one of the most talented ladies to every be part of the show (and that’s saying a lot given its alumni).  After seven years with the show, Kristen Wiig said goodbye to the late night sketch comedy show.

Her final moments were incredibly touching as she shared a small dance with each of the cast members as they all tearfully said their goodbyes. The full SNL ensemble, and many notable alums including Amy Poehler, Rachel Dratch and Chris Kattan joined host Mick Jaggar in a chorus of Ruby Tuesday as the credits started to roll.

I’m sure that I’m not the only one who was a crying mess last night.

If you missed Kristen Wiig’s goodbye, watch the extended version here.

So what’s next for Wiig?  Building on the mega-success of “Bridesmaids”, Kristen is slated for a whole slew of movies coming out this year and 2013.  Later this year Wiig will be seen in “Imogene” alongside Annette Bening and GLEE’s Darren Criss.  Other upcoming co-stars include Ben Stiller, Sean Penn, Shirley MacLaine, Adam Scott, Paul Rudd, Robert DeNiro and countless others. Pretty sure Wiig isn’t going to be an SNL alum that quietly fades away. We can’t wait to see what she’s up to next.

Congratulations Kristen and thank you!
