Being a Saturday Night Live host/musical guest is still one of the most important gauntlets a celebrity can run. Do well, and your sketches will be posted on TikTok alongside videos of people making slime for eternity. Do poorly, and you’re Ashlee Simpson, also posted on TikTok for eternity. Next on the docket is babygirl-at-large Jacob Elordi, who will kick off the new year as host on January 20. He’ll be joined by the first Jimmy Award–winning musical guest in history, Reneé Rapp. We hope they bring back former SNL host Austin Butler for an Elvis-off, but Sarah Sherman has an Elvis if that doesn’t work out. Moving into the new year, we request that Trisha Paytas pull double duty at Lorne Michaels’s earliest convenience. Below, the SNL season-49 lineup.
October 14: Pete Davidson and Ice Spice
October 21: Bad Bunny
October 28: Nate Bargatze and Foo Fighters
November 11: Timothée Chalamet and Boygenius
November 18: Jason Momoa and Tate McRae
December 2: Emma Stone and Noah Kahan
December 9: Adam Driver and Olivia Rodrigo
December 16: Kate McKinnon and Billie Eilish
January 20: Jacob Elordi and Reneé Rapp
