Watch ‘SNL’s Michael Che and Colin Jost Almost Get Stiffed By a Taylor Swift Question on ‘Who Wants to Be A Millionaire’

The "Weekend Update" hosts were saved by Jost's twisted logic about the shortest track on The Life of a Showgirl .

Co-anchors Michael Che and Colin Jost of "Weekend Update" on Saturday Night Live found themselves facing a challenging question during an appearance on the TV show "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire." The question posed was: "Ironically, what innuendo-laden song is the shortest track on Taylor Swift's album The Life of a Showgirl?" The possible answers included "Wood," "Anti-Hero," "Cruel Summer," and "Karma."

As host Jimmy Kimmel encouraged the pair, Jost, who is indeed a Swiftie, began explaining the length of each track, providing his own freestyle answers. Che initially reacted with an "uh-oh," but Jost persisted, eventually revealing that "Cruel Summer" was 3:23 and "Karma" was 4:24. When Jost mentioned "Wood" as the shortest track, Che chimed in, agreeing with the fact and jokingly saying, "Oh!"

The duo ultimately won $250,000 for the charities Answer the Call and Food Bank for NYC, showcasing their knowledge and swift instincts.
