Lady Gaga mocks her film 'Joker 2' in SNL monologue

Lady Gaga poked fun at her own acting career during her monologue on Saturday Night Live. She made jokes about her movie, “Joker 2,” which did very poorly at the box office last autumn.

The New York-born pop star pulled double-duty at 30 Rock on Saturday as host and musical guest, and kicked the festivities off with some fiery roasts of her own flick “Joker: Folie a Deux,” which was panned by both critics and fans.

“I’ve been very diligent about selecting films that will showcase my craft as a serious actor,” Gaga said as a set up.

“Films such as ‘Joker 2,’” Gaga said, adding, “Apparently people thought it was awesome.”

The “Abracadabra” singer then joked about both her and the film being nominated for the infamous Golden Raspberry Awards.

“Joaquin [Phoenix] and I even got nominated for a Razzie, which is an award for the worst films of the year,” Gaga said, adding after a beat, “So, we won.”

Gaga played Harley Quinn opposite Phoenix’s the Joker in the film, which was nominated for seven Razzies, with the pair taking home the hardware for “Worst on Screen Duo.” 

“But jokes on them. I love winning things,” Gaga said on Saturday.

“My Razzie brings me one step closer to an ‘EGORT.’ Which is like an ‘EGOT’ but it’s hurtful,” the “Bad Romance” singer joked, referencing wins at the Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony award, which only 21 people have been able to achieve.

The only actor to check all the boxes for ‘EGORT’ is Liza Manelli, who won the Razzie for “Worst Actress” in 1988 for her role in “Arthur 2.”

Composer Alan Menken is also an ‘EGOT’ winner who once received a Razzie for the song “High Times, Hard Times,” from the 1993 musical Newsies, according to CBR.com.

Gaga currently has an Oscar and numerous Grammy awards.
