Alec Baldwin poked fun at his being kicked off a plane with an appearance as American Airlines Cpt. Steve Rogers on Saturday Night Live’s ”Weekend Update.”

As the pilot, Baldwin tells “Weekend Update” anchor Seth Meyers that the whole incident was “awful,” and that “on behalf of everyone at American Airlines,” he was on “Saturday Night Live” to “issue an apology to Mr. Alec Baldwin.”

“Rogers” further noted that Baldwin is “an American treasure, and I am ashamed at the way he was treated!”

“City Correspondent” Stefon (Bill Hader) once again visited “Weekend Update” to offer anchor Seth Meyers and viewers a number of supposedly family-friendly “Autumn in New York” activities and, as usual, they included a slew of outrageous attractions.

But the big surprise was the appearance of Ben Stiller‘s vapid model character, Derek Zoolander, who came on to promote his upcoming VIP Halloween party.

Zoolander, known for his “Blue Steel” pose unveiled a new look — “Cold Coffee.”

Generally, we only laugh at ridiculously inaccurate reports, but SNL’s recurring segment about wildly wrong news makes us laugh for all the right reasons.

In the “Weekend Update” bit called “Second-Hand News,” funnyman Bobby Moynihan plays a guy named Anthony Crispino, who delivers what he thinks are scoops, but are really hilariously off-base rumors.

The clip (below) features Crispino’s take on Oprah Winfrey launching the OWN network, John Boehner becoming the new Speaker of the House, and Brett Favre retiring from the NFL.

The ESPY Awards will be live this year for the first time since 2003, so why not have a veteran of live TV host the ceremony?

And that’s exactly what’s going to happen when ”Saturday Night Live” star Seth Meyers hosts the 18th annual ESPY Awards from the Nokia Theatre in L.A. on July 14.

Meyers, a fervent sports fan who has guested several times on ESPN’s podcast, “The B.S. Report,” was a presenter at last year’s awards.

Gossip Cop hopes Meyers, who has taken some good shots at Tiger Woods, sticks to his no-holds-barred brand of humor, which is a staple of his “Weekend Update” segments.

There has been tremendous speculation ever since last year’s finale of “Saturday Night Live” that the incredibly talented Darrell Hammond was leaving the show. His absence in the opening credits this season and SNL’s silence on the matter has only added fuel to the rumors.

Well, Gossip Cop can give you the exclusive scoop. When we reached out to Hammond today – on his birthday – the veteran comedian told us that he “retired from the show last year.” That’s right, he officially left the show.

But hold on… Hammond, who did a hysterical impersonation of Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger on “Weekend Update” last Saturday, is going to occasionally do “spots” on the late-night sketch show. He told Gossip Cop that he’s “going on a case by case basis.” He’s already done four guest gigs on SNL, including the Thursday primetime shows, and says, “I expect to do a lot more.”

Hammond told Gossip Cop SNL has “been a home to me.”
