He credited Stone for being “such a good sport,” before admitting that if the same sketch aired today it wouldn’t have been received well.

Acknowledging the sketch was “so offensive,” he also apologised for his particular role and character in the scene.
“I want to apologise publicly for the security check sketch where I played an Indian man and we’re convincing Sharon, her character, or whatever, to take her clothes off to go through the security thing,” he said.
The Saturday Night Live alum continued, “It’s so 1992, you know, it’s from another era.”
Stone says she wasn’t fazed by the sketch, before agreeing that it was created in a different era.
“I know the difference between a misdemeanour and a felony,” she said.Â

“And I think that we were all committing misdemeanours [back then] because we didn’t think there was something wrong then. We didn’t have this sense.
“I had much bigger problems than that, you know what I mean? That was funny to me, I didn’t care. I was fine being the butt of the joke.”
“Now we’re in such a weird and precious time. People have spent too much time alone. People don’t know how to be funny and intimate and any of these things with each other,” Stone continued.
“Everyone is so afraid and are putting up such barriers around everything that people can’t be normal with each other anymore. It’s lost all sense of reason.”
“When I was doing the Indian character… there was no malice in it,” Carvey responded.Â
“It was really me rhythmically trying to get laughs. So I just want to say that watching it – comedy needs a straight person and you were perfect in it. You were completely sincere and you made us funny.”
