Former “Saturday Night Live” cast member Ego Nwodim appeared to respond to Shane Gillis’ controversial monologue from his latest hosting stint Saturday, during which he said that women who wear short shorts to the gym are dressing like “whores.”

“Whore reporting for duty,” Nwodim captioned an Instagram story Monday that featured a photo of her in the gym wearing black leggings, a black long-sleeve shirt and a black baseball hat.

She then posted a photo of her post-workout meal, writing, “Getting my 30 grams of protein in after heauxing,” with “heauxing” being slang for “whoring.”

Duane “Keffe D” Davis faces sentencing Tuesday after he was convicted of first-degree murder for orchestrating the death of rap legend Tupac Shakur three decades ago in Las Vegas.

The verdict was reached in August just hours after closing arguments ended and the jury entered deliberations in the roughly two-week trial in a Nevada courtroom. Testimony largely focused on past interviews and other comments about the killing from Davis, a 63-year-old former gang member.
