Moxie talent and SNL go-to director Chris Werner has contributed two standout spots to the latest episode of the sketch show, directing Lady Gaga in a makeup ad spoof and a skewering of the cast via song.

Chris’ second spot was a comical take on a L’Oreal commercial, in which Lady Gaga advertises a new “easy run” mascara that puts all eyes on you — as she quips, “A funeral is for everybody – why should the widow get all the attention?” Watch the spot below.
