The #FlipTheSwitch Challenge made its Saturday Night Live debut this past weekend when former presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren and SNL star Kate McKinnon teamed up for their comical rendition. Not only did the video go viral, but it also caught the attention of the meme’s originator: Drake.
“Wow I need to come home,” Drake commented in response to Warren and McKinnon’s video on SNL‘s Instagram, seemingly referring to his repeat stints as host and musical guest on the late-night sketch show.
Drake’s 2018 Scorpion standout “Nonstop” has been the challenge’s go-to record because of the song’s catchy one-liner “I just flip the switch.” To kick things off, participants film the other person dancing. Once Drake’s “switch” lyric passes through, the lights go back on and whoever was originally shooting swaps positions and sometimes even clothes with the dancer, continuing the lively challenge.
On Sunday, Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez threw their hats into the ring by joining in on the fun and delivering a funny gender-swap version.
