Ariana Grande Turned Mom Joan's 'Insane' Game Night Comment About 'Tiny D— Syndrome' Into Saturday Night Live Sketch

Ariana Grande turns her personal experiences into comedy gold!

In a recent episode Las Culturistas podcast, the Wicked star, 31, gave fans a glimpse of how her viral skit “Charades with Mom” Saturday night live arose.

Over Labor Day weekend, Grande recalled bringing her family over for a night out when her brother-in-law Hale got a little too competitive.

“We’re playing charades and Hale’s brother, my brother-in-law’s brother … he was like, ‘Haha, we’re winning,'” she told co-hosts Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers. “That was the extent of it was like, ‘Woo-hoo! We’re ahead,’ and my mom says, ‘Little d—- syndrome, huh?'”

Shocked by her mother’s remark, she exclaimed, “Mom, wait. That’s not funny. I thought, ‘Mom, that’s intense and hurtful. That’s so intense!'”

“We all laughed and, of course, [Hale’s brother] laughed,” Grande laughed. “But she said, ‘Well, that’s a sign of what it is.’ And I said, ‘Mom! This is crazy!’ And then I started doing it for Jesse, Hale’s other brother, and he was crying all day. So I said, ‘Bowen, we have to do something about this, please.’ ”

The “Eternal Sunshine” singer admitted to being part of an “aggressive gaming family.” While the win may be important to some of her loved ones, Grande said she “doesn’t care” about any outcome.

“I just want to have fun and I want to be out there and I’m here to have a good time,” she explained, but added of her brother, “Frankie can’t lose a game. Mom can’t lose a game. They can’t lose a game. They don’t like him. ”

The sketch in question features Yang as the boyfriend of the son of Grande’s character, played by Michael Longfellow. After Yang innocently teases Grande in charades, things end up going a little too far when game night turns physical. When Yang retorts, Grande welcomes him with open arms and the two even share a passionate kiss.

Elsewhere on the podcast, Yang took the time to express regret for a moment in that skit.

“I really have to apologize to you personally. I opened my mouth too wide when we continued kissing SNL,” Yang said to which Grande replied, “Absolutely you are. I was shaking after that.”

“Not in a bad way! Just in a disarming way,” she added, laughing.

“We got boxed in,” Grande told Yang on his podcast. “It felt like what these people needed at the time. It felt like what these characters required. And I’m all for it.”
