Mashable 101 creator Grace Reiter joins ‘Saturday Night Live’

Grace Reiter has built a following by committing to the bit.

Now she’s taking that energy to Studio 8H.

The comedian, whom we named one of our Mashable 101 creators earlier this year, is joining Saturday Night Live as as a featured player for Season 52.

If you’ve seen Reiter on TikTok , you've likely laughed at the way she takes a weird thought and runs with it.

In one video, she gives her last clean pair of underwear a hope-core edit.

In another, she pretends she’s on Love Island , trying to sleep next to two Islanders who are "getting freaky." Across her videos, Reiter uses physical stunts , body humor , and candid confessions accompanied by a jarringly icy stare .

As Haley Henschel wrote in Mashable’s profile, "'Grace videos' have practically become their own genre on TikTok" (where she has 3.9 million followers).

Reiter told Mashable back in June that her comedy comes from wanting to know whether other people share her strange thoughts and habits.

"[My comedy] comes from a place of connection or reassurance," she said.

"Like, 'Is this OK? … Do you guys think like this?' And usually the answer is, yeah, I think like that.

And yeah, I do that gross thing too." That willingness to say the strange part out loud has helped her build an audience of millions across TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram.

Last year, she channeled that same creative spirit into The Hunger Games (but Better) , a feature-length parody she made with friends.

The project took off, racking up 13 million views on YouTube.

Reiter’s career has grown beyond her own channels, too.
