Maya rudolph nude5/26/2023 ![]() VERSACE: I think I should teach you a few things about being a diva. “I can’t wear these fake jewels-I’m allergic.” RUDOLPH: I’m going to start saying that on set. I can tell from a mile away that your jewelry is fake. Maya, the diamonds you wear when you imitate me on Saturday Night Live are nothing compared to mine. But forgive me if I immediately start to bitch a little bit. ![]() Welcome to Diva 101.ĭONATELLA VERSACE: Hi, Ingrid. So, with Ingrid Sischy moving the conversation along from her office in New York, Rudolph sat pen in hand at the Covent Garden Hotel in London, while Versace reclined in her suite at the Ritz hotel in Paris, surrounded by her communications director, two assistants, a hair stylist, makeup artist, and assorted bodyguards. La Versace has seen her imitator and approves, although she believes the 30-year-old could use a few lessons in how to be a diva. ![]() ![]() But it is her impersonation of Donatella Versace that is fast becoming Rudolph’s trademark. In 2000 she joined the cast of Saturday Night Live and found a way to combine both of her talents with her hilarious parodies of singers including Nelly Furtado and Destiny’s Child. Although she followed them into a music career, Rudolph soon turned to her first love, comedy, joining the Groundlings, LA’s renowned theater group. Her mother was singer Minnie Riperton and her father is songwriter and producer Richard Rudolph, and Rudolph spent her early years standing backstage watching her parents perform. Self-described California girl and Lakers fan Maya Rudolph grew up in an LA showbiz family. We first met Rudolph two years into her SNL run in October of 2002, when we asked Donatella Versace, the subject of one of her most famous skits, to give Rudolph some lessons in how to be a diva. Pregnant or not, next month Rudolph will take the stage at Carngie Hall with her Prince cover band, Princess, for a “Music of Prince” benefit concert alongside Elvis Costello, Talib Kweli, The Roots, and Sandra Bernhard. The former SNL star and actress Rudolph is reportedly pregnant with her fourth child with director Paul Thomas Anderson.
