Some standout auditions featured in the sketch included Sarah Sherman embodying comedian John Mulaney, injecting humor into references to his latest stand-up special and his past drug struggles. Molly Kearney didn't exactly read from Spears' memoir as actor Kevin James, opting instead to reenact a popular meme of James. James Austin Johnson landed on a Werner Herzog impression, expressing fascination with Spears' writing style after reading a passage, while Ego Nwodim opted to deliver lines from her own book instead of Spears', in character as Jada Pinkett Smith, concluding with a humorous note on Tupac's alopecia.

The sketch was also graced by the likes of Allison Janney, Steve-O, Fred Schneider of the B-52s, Ice Spice, Dame Maggie Smith, Bill Hader, and Neil deGrasse Tyson. Notwithstanding the parade of talent, it was Williams' reading that captured the essence of Spears' written word with undeniable authenticity.
