She continued, “It’s hard. It’s hard to be constantly scrutinized for things that you have said. It’s hard for your words to be taken out of context and then really kind of feel that you just can’t defend yourself because that would open a whole other can of worms.”

When he was announced as host on Sept. 18, Mulaney, 42, jokingly captionedan Instagram post, “This is the first I’m hearing of this.”
