Not only will Michael "Size 14" Phelps be appearing on SNL this weekend -- he'll be wearing a Speedo. So, ya know, SNL's ratings will see a huge bump, much like that Speedo.
Phelps, who won a record eight gold medals, began reading through skits with the cast Wednesday night, and it's already clear his wardrobe will be kept to a minimum, with parodies of his Olympics moments, his skimpy Speedos, his emotional mom in the stands – and even Phelps as Aquaman.
"There's some really, really funny skits – anything you can imagine, they nailed just about every topic," Phelps says.
And Michael Phelps knows all about nailing things.
I'll be out of town this weekend, but you'd better believe I'll be DVRing this. Yes, all the good skits will be on YouTube anyway, but I don't want to miss a second of Phelpsy's hot body. SNL's gonna see ratings like they haven't seen since the '80s.
