Rihanna was the guest musician on the latest episode of 'Saturday Night Live,' and while her hilarious appearance in a digital short with Andy Samberg was a highlight of our week, it was another sketch that gave us pause. Host Blake Lively played Elin Nordegren Woods in a segment lampooning the model's marriage to scandalized golfer Tiger Woods. The skit focused on allegations that Elin beat her husband with a golf club after learning of his infidelity. We think, had the genders been reversed, 'SNL' wouldn't make light of the potentially violent situation - and with Rihanna on board, we wonder if a domestic violence gag was in especially poor taste. Watch the video below.

I'm with you algonquin, SNL hasn't deserved my time and attention for a long time but I just happened to have the tv on that station at the time and my hands were too busy to use the remote. I did find the skit entertaining though it would have been a different story if the sexes had been reversed.

The problem is that Woods, like many Republican politicians, get support from segments of the public that are attracted to their "squeaky clean" images.
If making bucks off that false image is part of a cynical financial strategy, then their "adventures" are more than fair game.

He's a Democrat. He's black, remember?
Hey HuMP, LIBS SOCK. -o +u
Tiger woods is a republican politician? I always thought he was a golfer. On top of that he most likely voted for Obamba. Why are you bringing politics into tiger woods cheating on his wife? Maybe its a JFK, Bill Clinton,...... thing to cheat on their wives.

I'm surprised that after all the hoopla R. made over her abuse from her ex, the writers would use Tiger's dilemma to promote the violence played out on their show. SNL has hit a new low!!!! And R., Get on with your life. It happened, you recovered and have done all you can to help other women going through an abusive relationship! Forever, when I see your name or hear your music, I'll think of the abuse, not the artist. Not a good way to travel through your career.

I think what they were lampooning was not the possible domestic violence but the absurd explanations (like breaking back window to get him out of a car that didn't have any damage to the doors). The absurdity of the attempts to explain ARE funny!

Who really cares one way or another. The skit was truly funny, made me laugh.

it would have been funnier to have played what actually happened.. him told to get out while he's in his shorts, and down soundly sleeping in the front seat of his SUV when she smashes the window with a golf club sending him in a panic which resulted with him driving over the water hydrone, the crash ending in the tree.
