Sir Mick made a surprise entry during a spoof of Telenovelas, a form of soap operas in Latin America which are known for their outlandish plots, as dramatic music played.

Calling for respect, he comically hit SNL comedian Marcello Hernandez and Bad Bunny as well as manically laughing during the sketch.

Elsewhere, the rock star made another appearance as a man pretending to be a nun called Sister Kevin before admitting being part of a deception.
