SNL comedian Marcello Hernández had the internet in stitches after he turned a major televised awards ceremony into what fans described as the most relatable dinner invitation in Hollywood history.

During the Emmy Awards, filmed indoors at a ceremony broadcast on NBC, Hernández took to the stage and did something no one expected: he personally invited Hollywood legends to his house for a meal, right there in front of a live audience.

Hernández's unforgettable Emmys moment

First in his sights was veteran actor Harrison Ford, whom Hernández greeted warmly before telling him:

"You are a legend, man, and a real inspiration to me, and I would like to invite you to have dinner at my house. Yes, no pressure."

He then turned his attention to Zendaya, gushing over her talent before admitting he had tried and failed to keep his cool.

"I saw you, and I wanted to play it cool, and I've decided I can do that. I would like to invite you and Spider-Man to have dinner at my house."

The reference to Zendaya's real-life partner Tom Holland by his Marvel character name sent the crowd into a frenzy, as did his pronunciation of the superhero's name in a Spanish-accented "Espiderman." Marcello Hernández invited celebrities over to his house and credited courtesy of the Television Academy and NBC; the moment spread rapidly online, with fans losing it over the comedian's natural charm and unfiltered energy.
