SNL illustrates what Sochi Olympics would look like without gay men

New York – Saturday Night Live opened their most recent episode with a rather controversial clip showing what the Sochi Olympics would look like if Vladimir Putin's anti-gay stance caused massive boycotts.

Arriving virtually on the eve of the Sochi Olympics, Russia's gay propaganda law has been condemned by Western governments.

The International Olympic Committee has said that it has Putin's assurances there will be no discrimination during the Games based on sexual orientation.

SNL decided to put a humorous spin on the drama by imagining what men's heterosexual figure skating would look like.
