Kim Kardashian hosted the latest episode of Saturday Night Live, kicking off the show by delivering a monologue that included jokes about OJ Simpson, her family and Kanye West. Later, she appeared in spoof sketches of Disney’s Aladdin, and reality television shows The Bachelorette and The People’s Court.

Another sketch on the show which was well-received by many viewers online saw Kardashian joke about her shape-wear company, Skims.

Appearing in front of her company’s logo, Kardashian said: “Introducing new Skims shape wear for thick dogs,” while a dog appeared next to her wearing a Skims item. Later, other dogs in the sketch were brought in wearing a variety of the items.

Kardashian went on to joke that her line would be available for all dogs, “no matter how big their butt is.”
