Update: Rudolph returning to ''SNL'' after all

Okay, honestly, Maya Rudolph has got to stop toying with our emotions. After telling NBC on Sunday (Sept. 23) that she would not be returning to Saturday Night Live — which was a sudden change of heart, as all involved expected her to return — the woman behind the best Oprah impression on earth has now decided she will be back after all. Seriously. For real.

In a statement released to NBC, the fickle comedianne tells her now completely flummoxed — but no doubt relieved — fans: ”It was an agonizing decision, but ultimately, I feel I made the best choice both as a mother and as an actress. I couldn?t be happier to be returning to SNL.”

Great news. See you this Saturday, Maya. Now, we?re going to go lie down.
