Now that the dust has settled following the big cast shakeup for it’s upcoming milestone 50th season, Saturday Night Live on Wednesday unveiled its all-star lineup of hosts and musical guests for its first five episodes.
Ariana Grande will reunite once again with her Wicked co-star, SNL cast member Bowen Yang, when she returns as host for her second time on October 12. She won’t be pulling double duty, however, as Stevie Nicks has been tapped as the episode’s musical guest.
Other notable guests include Billie Eilish who returns for the fourth time as musical guest on October 19, while recent MTV VMA Award Winner and quickly-rising star Chappell Roan makes her debut on the late-night sketch comedy series, where she is set to perform select songs from her debut album, “The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess.”
