Ram on, on the other hand he often plays at sound check and would be pretty sweet.

SNL has had non-actors appear since ***literally the second episode ever filmed***. Paul Simon hosted the second episode.
So why exactly do you have a problem with a _young female_ singer doing so?

She’s done acting but SNL has always had singers host. If dua lipa, charli xcx, Sabrina carpenter can do it why not her.

MistrblankApr 8, 2026

Sabrina has had a little wider of an acting career than just Disney and her TV credit under Disney is a slightly larger Girl Meets World than most Disney.
Dua Lipa was breaking into acting at the time of her hosting gig with Barbie already and Argyle. It make sense to pull her in if she's trying to go mainstream acting. And Charli XCX has had random voice credits and several films pushing into acting.
Olivia is currently just singing and focused on singing. Two Disney shows in the past and an American Girl Doll movie before that are fine, but not exactly like she's pushing her acting role in anything recently.
I'm not trying to say she's bad, just seems like an odd choice.

Why does acting experience count? The SNL host is just has to be a celebrity. They have non actors host all the time, mostly athletes, but also comedians, singers, and every once in a while a politician

Are you trying to imply he didn’t thrive without it? Because he was one of the most successful comedy actor/writer of the 00’s and 10’s. If anything you could argue short form content killed his career

Well he probably would've agreed since he did co-found Funny or Die a short media content comedy site/page in 2007. It was quite a successful venture. Granted, by 2010, he had well begun his comedic decline from being on top of the zeitgeist (will defend The Other Guys to anyone though).

It may have been less common in the past for someone to have both a musical and acting background. I mean, Disney has kinda made that their thing so it’s pretty common these days.
Idon’t think it’s meant to be like “check out this rare special event!” It’s just “oh, she can do both? Ok cool, let’s just have her fill both spots then”

I don't know Olivia.
Matt Damon will be great at least. He's on that Ryan Gosling level for me, in terms of his ability to go all-in on sketches and he has great instincts.
Will is hit or miss. His comedy instincts aren't what they once were. But hope he does well.

tetoffensApr 8, 2026

SNL is not syndicated television. The term syndicated in this context comes from journalism where the same content would appear in multiple publications in different markets. In television, it took on the meaning of multiple networks where a show doesn't have an exclusive home. SNL is first run exclusive to NBC.

Ahhh fair enough my mistake. I guess I ment “network” or “network exclusive” television.
But my question still stands. I don’t know how people can watch shows like 9-1-1 or The Rookie for instance.

I agree with those, but SNL is kind of the exception for me. It’s timely and while sometimes it’s hit and miss I like pop culture. But I’m starting to prefer the new SNL UK surprisingly.
