    Vanessa is Jewish and even has a character called ‘bar mitzvah boy’ that has become very popular. She is still actively Jewish today and attends Temple when she can.



    Vanessa Bayer Political Views

    Although not confirmed, it would appear that she holds views that align more with the Democratic party. She has roasted Donald Trump’s wife and daughters in skits on SNL so it would seem likely that she doesn’t support him. However, she does make fun of democrats too, so this might just part of her job.
