Quinta Brunson Monologue - SNL 

From Buzzfeed to SNL I'm so proud of how far Quinta has come she deserves all the recognition she is getting🎉🎉❤.

I love how she made her monologue about appreciating teachers. She didn't try to end it on a big punchline but a message that everyone agrees with "Pay teachers more"

Quinta is deadass one the most inspirational hosts SNL has had this year. Feels like a genuine success story of a normal person putting in the work and finally getting the recognition she earned.

From Instagram videos to Buzzfeed to Black Lady Sketch Show to Abbott Elementary to here! So proud of you Quinta! SHE GOT MONEY!!! 🎉🎉🎉

Wow! That was so gratifying to this retired 30-year public educator. Thank you, Quinta! And from the SNL stage, no less. I’ve watched, from inception, both SNL and Abbott Elementary.

She has come so far since buzzfeed I’m so proud of her ❤❤❤🎉🎉

I’m not even a teacher and the end of her monologue brought tears to my eyes. Teachers are so under-appreciated smh. God bless them all!

*WOW! Has any host ever included an ASK for fair teacher pay within the monologue in the history of SNL? I'm in LOVE!!! Way to be QUINTA!!! BARACK To The FUTURE!!!*

I'm so proud of her. She deserves every bit of her success.

Quinta’s expression when President Obama was praising her Mom. 😢 Just when I thought I couldn’t love her more!

Abbott Elementary is basically The Office in a school (And that’s why I love it)

Thank you for speaking for us overworked and underpaid teachers. You are amazing. Your mom did a good job with you ❤

Quinta has come a long way since her days at BuzzFeed. Good for her.

I’m a teacher and she made me feel so special!!! ❤ I love Quinta and her show Abbott Elementary!!!

Look at our girl from BuzzFeed doing it big congratulations Quinta, you deserve everything you're getting and even more success sis!!!!

Thank you for standing up for teachers!!! I have to admit it is not only about the pay - to me, it is more about how teaching is the only profession where the more experience you have, the less influence you have in the decisions being made... It is so very insulting.

I can't believe I watched Quinta on Buzzfeed years ago and here she is hosting SNL!

It’s like watching my bestie succeed at her dream and finally getting the recognition she deserves. Go Quinta!!!!

I resigned from my 7 year teaching career this past December. This was a career that had such an intense heaviness and toll that I had to think of my physical and mental well-being and knew that it was time to let it go. I appreciate her appreciation, thank you for seeing what I hoped I was for my kids, a good teacher.

‘Abbott Elementary’ is a ✨CLASSIC✨ perfect cast, great writing, hilarious characters! Quinta is a gem 💎

Quinta is such an inspiration! Love that she is finally on SNL and that she rides for teachers 🫶🏾🥹

what a wholesome monologue for teachers

I haven’t watched a monologue before. I think maybe once. But I knew I couldn’t skip Quinta’s. I just knew it was gonna worthwhile. And now I’m crying. For so many reasons. I’ve been talking my niblings (nephews and nieces) through some of the issues and questions with school and their changing bodies and identities and how other kids use that to hurt them and I wish all our schools had teachers like Abbott. Every teacher there cares so much and has a great relationship with their kids. We need teachers to be as well respected as healthcare workers, PAID, and always appreciated. When I was in high school in the 90’s, my guidance counselor found out I was identifying as bisexual so she called me to her office and gave me ten tickets to the Seattle Gay Men’s choir. She did a lot to make sure I was getting along okay. She was the only adult I talked to about it and she made it so much more okay for me. Years later, I ran into her at a funeral for a fellow classmate and I made sure to tell her how much her being my guidance counselor helped me.

3rd grade teacher reporting for accolades! ...seriously, this will keep me going all winter. I've loved Quinta since Black Lady Sketch Show (watch it) & I didn't think I could love her more, but here we are

Quinta going to be amazing host she killed it hilarious monologue.

One of the best monologues I've seen, Quinta is so dope

It’s been so fun watching Quinta grow and thrive in all of her success!! She deserves all the love!

She was my favorite part of Buzzfeed. She deserves every bit of her success ❤🎉

Love, Love ,Love this monologue! ❤❤❤Being an educator myself, Quinta gave us the recognition we educators deserve!👏🏽 She's the "cousin" in my head as we share the uniquely last name! Go Brunsons!🙌🏽

I work in a school, I'm apart of the school support staff, and trust me, if teachers are grossly underpaid, imagine the support staff! I'm grateful that Quinta mentioned the importance of giving teachers what they're worth! ❤️

OMG - Quinta has come so far since the days of Buzzfeed. The Abbot show is actually quite thoughtful. And her skits on SNL are pretty funny. She's not saying anything we don't already know though - pay teachers more, and give them amazing supplies. I can't tell you how many times teachers ask for classroom supplies in our buy nothing group - that's no ok. No one else has to do that.

Too busy to watch every popular show on the air, so this is my first time checking out this young lady, but she did that monologue like a pro and the jokes were excellently delivered.

quinta did so well! i can honestly say tonight was the most fun i've had watching the show this season. so proud of her

I think this was one of the funniest SNL I've seen in years. I loved it!! Great work Quinta!! 💖🌹

From Buzzfeed to SNL. I’m so incredibly proud of all of her success! She deserves everything she is getting and more!

Watching her growth over the years has been such a beautiful journey!! Dreams do come true when you’re consistent & you work hard. She deserves every bit of this success!! I LOVE QUINTAAAA!!!! 🥰❤️🙏🏾🙌🏾

Love you girl! Abbott Elementary is one of my favorite sitcoms rn! 🤍

Thank you, Quinta! Great opening--and we teachers appreciate it! Love Abbott and loved your episode of SNL.

I really like it when SNL hosts do a sincere monologue. There was Austin Butler talking about his mom being an inspiration, Pedro Pascal tearing up when he praised his family's bravery when they moved to America, and now Quinta Brunson sticking up for fair teachers' pay. I wish hosts would be genuine more often.

I remember watching Quinta on Buzzfeed. During the pandemic, I went back and re- watched those videos. She was there with so many other talented artists

Im so glad to see her host SNL!!!! She's a great impromptu actress and hilarious comedian!!! LOVE HER!!!! THX TEACHERS!!!!

She’s killing it!

I’m crying 😭 man I’ve been watching her since vine

I've never been prouder to be a teacher than in this moment.

This woman is a treasure and she absolutely gets it about teaching. So proud of her, her accomplishments, and how she uses her platform for teachers and black people

I love how she’s so funny and it’s without even trying. Her monologue always came back to her mom and teaching. I love this woman like I know her personally. I pray for all the success, love and peace to continue coming her way.

Quinta Bronson is great! She is so talented!

I'm beaming - love Quinta and I'm so proud of her ugh

The most wholesome monologue I’ve ever heard on snl

One of the better cold opens I’ve seen in a while

This is one of the best monologues I’ve watched. Delivered with such prowess, command, & expert comedic timing

"Damn, Ms. Teagues is out here getting wasted at universal studios" 😂🤣

Love 👏🏽 Love 👏🏽 Love 👏🏽 Quinta!!! She can do no wrong in my eyes. So happy for her success. Keep shining Queen 👑!!!

Love Quinta and teachers!!!

🎉 I had to watch that twice it was so good! Thanks Quinta for bringing me to tears with your monologue. It’s just an emotional day😢

I've never been more prouder for anyone on SNL before, watched her since BuzzFeed

I’m sooooo proud of her 🥲 like she’s my big sis 🥹 👏🏽 ❤

LOVE HER! So proud of Quinta; have been a fan forever! Give her her flowers!

Yessssss Quinta! So proud of and happy for you, I have tears in my eyes because from Buzzfeed days to now all over everywhere and getting her mf flowers 💐! Keep flourishing and shining queen, we love to see it and you have the support and love of the village mama! Much love 💜💐

Quinta Brunson is so amazing on so many levels and I love love love that she seems to be doing so well handling her success. The video of her and Barack Obama made me cry with pride for both of them and her amazing mother who not only helped educate people but who also did a fantastic job of raising such a beautiful person and a proud daughter. Cheers to you Momma Brunson!

That monologue made my heart happy. ❤❤❤

So crazy to see someone I grew up watching on Buzzfeed hit it so big, kinda feel like a proud mom seeing where she is now even though I’m younger than her lol

Love her! Great message about teachers! Thank you!

Oh Quinta, you are bodying life❤I love it

I LOVE WATCHING HER GROW! what a monologue! 10/10

Teaching is so much like SNL except you can't make them laugh too much. You have to come up with a new live show more than once a week. The audience is forced to be there and often not very happy about it and they are suppose to be better off when they leave. All this and they say you teach because you can't do.

If there EVER was someone who Deserves the Fame & Recognition that they have, it is Quinta! She has Organically Worked her way Up to this! Let's give her, her Flowers now! 💐

I Just Love Her Omg!!! So Beautiful, Inspirational & Talented, Congratulations🎉🎊, Praying & Sending Love, Peace & Light Your Way, Continued Blessings & Peace To All💞🙏🏾🤎

PHENOMENAL EPISODE! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Excellent monologue!!!

She is just glowing with joy. Such a lovely woman.

I was just looking at a commercial with Quinta in it and I am genuinely happy for her, I remember seeing her on Buzzfeed videos, and look at her now! Speaking life into your life and dreams The "l will see myself on tv shows, movies", etc.: Follow your dreams, everyone! 🎉👍🏾🙏🏽

She's absolutely right about teachers needing to be paid but I'm a little shocked whomever helped her write her monologue had never heard of Living Single which is where Friends came from

I love her so much! I haven't seen the show yet but I'm gonna watch it

Quinta did a great job! Natural on the show.

She’s so amazing!!!

Love her and the show friends
