Guess who’s back to grace your screens with her signature awkward charm? That’s right, Kristen Wiig is dusting off her Target Lady persona and making a comeback that’s more on point than a perfectly aimed clearance sticker!
Remember when Wiig first unleashed the Target Lady onto the world in 2005? Oh, the nostalgia! She gave us nine glorious doses of her Target-tastic antics over the years, including a memorable stint when she hosted SNL in 2013.
But hold onto your shopping carts, because this time it’s not just for laughs—Target is actually shelling out cash to have Wiig reprise her role in a shiny new ad! It’s like Christmas morning in the bargain aisle!
And when is this retail magic happening? Well, it’s perfectly timed for Target’s Circle Week, of course! Because who needs national holidays when you’ve got discounts and deals at everyone’s favorite red bullseye emporium?
“I’m on the clock and ready to rock!” proclaims the Target Lady in the ad, her enthusiasm matching the excitement of a Black Friday doorbuster.
But wait, there’s more! Kristen Wiig is also gracing the hallowed halls of Studio 8H this weekend as the host of Saturday Night Live. Can we get a drumroll, please? We’re crossing our fingers, toes, and maybe even our noses, hoping that Wiig dusts off her khaki vest and iconic bangs for another live sketch appearance. Because let’s face it, the only thing better than one dose of Target Lady is two doses!
So, mark your calendars, set your DVRs, and don’t forget to bring your reusable bags—because when Kristen Wiig and Target Lady team up, it’s retail therapy at its finest!
