“Sally, When the Wine Runs Out” has been gaining traction on social media since its release on Role Model’s latest deluxe album, Kansas Anymore (The Longest Goodbye), in February. Throughout Role Model’s No Place Like Tour, the “Some Protector” singer has brought out numerous celebrity guests — including Natalie Portman, Reneé Rapp, Dylan Minette, Bowen Yang, Charli xcx, and more.

While speaking with James Austin Johnson of Saturday Night Live at Rolling Stone’s Musicians on Musicians event, the “Look at That Woman” singer revealed that he got the idea for his social media famous “Sally” segment from influencer Jake Shane.

When asked by James who books the “Sallys,” Role Model said simply “Me,” before clarifying how the fan-favorite moment came to be.

However, when the band went to Dallas, it was around the time that a joke began circling online that the influencer and host of podcast Therapuss, Jake Shane, was the inspiration for the song.

“He happened to be in Dallas and I was like this would be funny to like play into that and he came up,” he said. “Originally I was going to have him up for a different song, something else and then we did that and people loved that, so we started bringing up fans.”

Role Model has appeared twice on Shane’s podcast Therapuss, which in part prompted humorous fan speculation about the influencer’s role in shaping the song.

The “Sally” segment is one of several notable musician tour segments this year. Sabrina Carpenter similarly acknowledges celebrity guests by “arresting” them with pink fuzzy hand cuffs for being “hot.” Her arrests have included Joe Keery, Margaret Qualley, Gigi Hadid, Corey Fogelmanis, and more.
