Watch: SNL's Kate McKinnon Shines as Ellen DeGeneres, Jodie Foster and Ecce Homo Restorer Cecilia Giminez

But this weekend, McKinnon, who joined SNL late last season, really got to shine portraying Ellen DeGeneres and Jodie Foster as “Lesser Known Bond Girls” in one sketch and the Spanish woman who lovingly defaced a portrait of Jesus in another.
