Lily Allen, Ariana Grande, and Cher are all set to appear on upcoming episodes of Saturday Night Live. Fresh off the release of her new album, West End Girl, Allen will serve as musical guest for the first time since 2007 on December 13, opposite host Josh O’Connor. The following week, Grande hosts for the second time in as many years, with Cher giving her first SNL performance since 2011.
Saturday Night Live’s 51st season has featured performances from Doja Cat, Sabrina Carpenter, Brandi Carlile, and Olivia Dean, among others. Bad Bunny hosted the season premiere. After two weeks off, SNL returns to the air on December 6 with a Melissa McCarthy–hosted episode featuring musical guest Dijon.
In addition to starring in Wicked: For Good, which hits theaters this Friday, November 21, Grande has joined the cast of Ben Stiller and Robert DeNiro’s new Meet the Parents movie.
