Original “Saturday Night Live” star Garrett Morris, 89, went viral after appearing in the Broadway show “Joe Turner’s Come and Gone” starring his friend Taraji P. Henson.
The cartoon featured in the 55-year-old actress’s Instagram carousel on Tuesday, where viewers could see what appeared to be a large bulge in his pants.
Henson and Morris posed next to each other, with the latter leaning on his walker.
“Unc junior got that pocket money down there,” one person wrote, referring to Morris’ character, Uncle Junior, on “The Jamie Foxx Show.”
“I wasn’t trying to see Stan that way,” said another social media user, referring to the actor’s role in “Martin.”
Whoopi Goldberg, Angela Bassett and Anthony Mackie were also in the post, but fans were too distracted by the “Cooley High” star to comment on the other A-listers in attendance.
The “Empire” alum eventually deleted the shot. However, that didn’t stop the comedian from responding to the chat online.
“I seem to have caused quite a stir due to a recent photo of what appears to be a baby boa constrictor between my legs,” Morris said in an Instagram video.
“Now I don’t mind putting up with these stereotypes that are usually given to black men. But ladies and gentlemen, I’m more than a body. I’m also a brain,” he teased.
The actor took the time to encourage his followers to purchase a copy of his upcoming book, “Ain’t That a Bitch.”
“Which is what I thought when I saw the picture of me and Taraji Henson,” Morris joked.
“Look, I’ve been (photographed) with Emmy winners, Oscar winners, Tony winners, and I never thought I’d be surprised by my penis,” he added.
The funnyman then asked his fans for a serious “favor”.
“I want you to vote, okay?” Morris encouraged the viewers. “I was here during that civil rights movement. I actually saw Martin Luther King preach that we were fighting for our rights… vote and buy my book!”
Morris was a founding cast member of “Saturday Night Live” from 1975 to 1980.
He served as the sketch comedy show’s first black cast member.
Over the decades, Morris has appeared in a number of popular television shows, including “Married… with Children,” “Shameless,” “Psych” and “Scandal.”
He was a regular on “The Jamie Foxx Show,” starring in 100 episodes from 1996 to 2000.
Morris also had a starring role on “2 Broke Girls,” which ran for 138 episodes from 2011 to 2017.
