Watch trailer for Ziwe’s ‘bombshell’ George Santos interview
By George, she got it.
Ziwe Fumudoh has released a teaser for her much-anticipated interview with disgraced former Congressman George Santos, which is scheduled to air at 11 a.m. EST Monday on her YouTube channel.
Fumudoh, 31, posted the minute-long trailer to X on Sunday with the caption, “I asked George Santos all the hard-hitting questions.”
“Oh my god. Legs all for days. Look at you,” the Long Island Republican says upon meeting Fumudoh, who describes their sit-down as “One jokester and a national joke sit across from each other in a bombshell interview.”
In the trailer, a hot mic catches Santos, 35, pleading with Fumudoh to be “mindful with the DOJ stuff” — to which she replies, “What do you mean by mindful?”
The former late-night host also asks, “Are rich people stupid?” and “What could we do to get you to go away?”
The Post reached out to Santos’ reps for comment.
Expelled from the US House of Representatives earlier this month, Santos faces 23 charges for wire fraud, identity theft, money laundering, and lying to Congress.
He has denied any criminal wrongdoing, and a trial date has been set for Sept. 9, 2024.
He faces up to 22 years in federal prison if he is convicted.
Prosecutors said last week they are “presently engaged in plea negotiations with the goal of resolving this matter without the need for a trial.”
In the meantime, Santos has inspired many a meme and has even joined the popular Cameo app, where he charges $500 for a personal video.
Fumudoh, for her part, managed to secure the interview with Santos after tweeting at him earlier this month.
“Would you be interested in a pay-per-view interview?” she wondered. “You’d be an iconic guest.”
Santos responded with a simple, “Let’s do it.”
Fumudoh — whose late-night talk show, “Ziwe,” was canceled by Showtime in April after two seasons — recently posted pictures to X of herself and Santos together on set.
