TL;DR

Chad Smith, Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer, crashed Will Ferrell’s SNL hosting moment by impersonating Ferrell on stage, prompting Ferrell to protest that he’s the host. After Smith is escorted off, Ferrell invites Paul McCartney for a Q&A, with McCartney jokingly telling Smith to get back behind the drums as Ferrell ribbed Beatles-and-pop hits.
