Dream do come true! <\/p>\n

Earlier this month, Dr. Anthony F<\/strong>auci<\/strong> said he’d want Brad Pitt<\/a><\/strong> to portray him<\/a> on Saturday Night Live<\/a><\/em>. Fast forward to last night (April 25), and the health expert got his wish.<\/p>\n

The late-night comedy sketch show once again showed its cast members collaborating with various celebrities in their respective homes<\/a> amid the Coronavirus<\/a><\/strong> pandemic.<\/p>\n

Kicking things off, the Oscar winner dropped jaws during the cold open with his monologue about President Donald Trump<\/a><\/strong>‘s recent (and concerning) comments about COVID-19.<\/p>\n

“Good evening, I’m Dr. Anthony Fauci,” Pitt began his monologue and looked nearly identical to the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.<\/p>\n

He continued, “Now, there’s been a lot of misinformation out there about the virus. Yes, the president has taken some liberties with our guidelines. So tonight, I would like to explain what the president was trying to say.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Pitt perfectly blended humor with facts during his segment, as he portrayed Dr. Fauci.<\/p>\n

In the cold open, snippets of Trump’s interviews were shown and then the actor would clarify those comments in his own way.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“Anybody that needs a test, gets a test… they’re there. We have the tests. And the tests are beautiful,” Trump can be seen saying in a previous interview. <\/p>\n

Fauci’s (aka Pitt’s response)? “Okay, couple of things: I don’t know that I would describe the test as beautiful… unless, your idea of beauty is having a cotton swab tickle your brain.”<\/p>\n

“Also, when he said everyone can get a test, what he meant was almost no one,” Pitt added.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Those weren’t the only funny tidbits, either. To see the full 3-minute video in all its hilarity, watch the video above!<\/p>\n
