Helen Mirren's 'SNL' Kiss With Abby Elliot In 'The Roosevelts' (VIDEO)


First Posted: 04/10/11 02:18 PM ET Updated: 06/10/11 06:12 AM ET

Helen Mirren is known for being much saucier and fun in person than the her most well-known characters, such as the queen. So it's no surprise that 'SNL' mined that dichotomy for all it was worth in several sketches.

We thought they'd done all they could with the topic when Nasim Pedrad and Kristen Wiig groped Mirren's bosom in the digital short. But another opportunity to witness Mirren's playful sexuality came during a parody of "The Kennedy's" mini-series, "The Roosevelts." As historical inaccuracies piled up in the sketch, Marilyn Monroe finally entered the oval office to serenade FDR (even though she would have been only 5 at the time), just before getting some serious face time from Mirren's Eleanor Roosevelt.

When she was younger, she had no inhibitions of complete frontal nudity in front of the film. This lady has never been a _prude.

1 out of 2000 people are hermaphrodites, but they never get any play.

Surprising, isn't it? :)

That was pretty funny, given what I've read about "The Kennedys." And that was some g-on-g action! :)

I'd sell my conservative neighbors easily to cannibals to be able to lay one on Helen.

Surnow also did that Bin Laden movie where they had Osama trapped and were just about to take them out, and Clinton changes his mind at the last second.

That would be history according to Fixed News.

Although I gotta admit. Getting smooched by both Helen Mirren and Abby Elliot at the same time wouldn't be bad.
