Marcello Hernández’s ‘SNL’ Character Domingo Arrested at Sabrina Carpenter Concert
Marcello Hernández’s beloved and viral Saturday Night Live character Domingo was arrested by Sabrina Carpenter this weekend. The charge? He’s far too hot.
Carpenter “arrests” a fan for being “too hot” at each of her Short n’ Sweet tour concert stops. The bit occurs just before she performs “Juno.” The singer arrested Millie Bobby Brown at an Atlanta show last month, and did the same to Rachel Sennott and Margaret Qualley earlier this weekend in Los Angeles.

Hernández’s Domingo character originated during Ariana Grande’s Oct. 12 episode of SNL, when the Wicked star joined the show’s cast as a group of bridesmaids singing a parodied version of Carpenter’s “Espresso,” accidentally revealing to the groom that the bride was unfaithful to her fiancée during their bachelorette trip, where she hit it off with a man named Domingo.
“Sabrina, I’m here!” Hernández can be heard shouting in video footage from Sunday’s concert in Inglewood. He goes on to introduce himself as Domingo from “Miami, baby.”
From the stage, Carpenter responded: “Miami? I wish you were from my bedroom. What are you doing later tonight?”
Hernández then referenced Carpenter’s song “Bed Chem,” saying, “I’m the cute boy with blue jacket and the thick accent.”
The singer went on to say she was “so flustered and overwhelmed” and asked, “Is there anything you want to say before I arrest you, Domingo?”
“Domingo” responded in song: “Came all this way / Had to explain / Direct from Domingo / Sabrina’s a friend / She’s like my sis / But I would hook up though.”
“Like, now?” Carpenter responded, and then handed him a pair of fuzzy pink handcuffs.
It wasn’t Domingo’s first appearance this weekend. Hernández reprised the role on Saturday’s SNL — hosted by Charli XCX — where the group of gals reunited for a baby shower and sang again about Domingo’s charm, this time to the tune of Chappell Roan’s “HOT TO GO!”
The original “Bridesmaind Speech” sketch has garnered more than 11 million views on YouTube. The “Babymoon” follow-up has nearly 2 million.
