Melissa McCarthy Rolls Down NYC Street Dressed as Sean Spicer Ahead of Hosting 'SNL'

Melissa McCarthy took her message to the streets on Friday.

Dressed as White House press secretary Sean Spicer, the 46-year-old actress was seen riding on a moving podium past CNN's offices in New York City. The bizarre display appeared to be for yet another Saturday Night Live sketch, as McCarthy was also yelling and pointing at people in their vehicles.

The Bridesmaids star will be hosting the second-to-last episode of the season this weekend, along with musical guest Haim, and already shot a promo of herself getting into her Sean "Spicy" Spicer costume.

McCarthy debuted her acclaimed Spicer impression in February, when she made a surprise appearance on SNL when Kristen Stewart was hosting. She's since reprised the role twice, most recently in April, when she played the press secretary making a public address while dressed as the Easter Bunny.

Here's a look at when she first appeared as the press secretary on SNL:
