We lost Tom Hanks and Rita. Sorry. It wasn’t their fault.” The playful moment quickly went viral, showcasing once again how effortlessly Hanks shines on the SNL stage.
While their comedic exit delighted fans, Rita Wilson’s outfit became the center of an even larger online discussion. The actress and singer wore a striking two-piece denim ensemble adorned with silver embellishments, paired with a silver purse and pumps. Her top featured a deep neckline and a tie-up detail at the waist.

Critics argued that Rita Wilson’s outfit didn’t suit her, with one user stating, “The ill-fitting double denim is a fashion disaster—it looks stiff and uncomfortable.” Another commented, “It’s really aging… like she’s trying too hard to look trendy.” These mixed reactions made Wilson’s fashion choice one of the most discussed moments of the evening.
In contrast, Tom Hanks kept it classic and refined. He wore dark blue jeans, black shoes, a black tuxedo jacket, and a black shirt underneath. His effortlessly stylish look stood in stark contrast to the debate over Wilson’s attire, adding to the buzz surrounding their appearance.
