Key and Peele’s New Sketch Reveals the World’s Most Reluctant Ambassador for Gay Marriage

In Key & Peele’s newest sketch, a white-haired politician (Keegan-Michael Key) addresses his Michigan constituency to send a simple message: Government should work for everyone, whether they’re young, old, Asian, Hispanic, straight, or gay. As the camera finds an example of each constituent in the crowd, Jordan Peele is surprised to find himself mistakenly pinned as a member of the latter category. Amid an effusive speech about the importance of the gay community, he tries to evade the relentless gaze of the cameraman. Needless to say, he fails.
