Celebrities Who Have Hosted and Performed as Musical Guests on SNL: Featuring Harry Styles and Others
Receiving an invitation to host or perform on an episode of Saturday Night Live is a significant honor — and even more so when a star gets the opportunity to do both in a single evening.
Harry Styles joined the prestigious group in November 2019, delighting fans with his comedic skills in various sketches before serenading the Studio 8H audience with his hit tracks “Lights Up” and “Watermelon Sugar.”
“It’s such an honor to be here hosting Saturday Night Live for the very first time. I’m thrilled to be here as more than just a musical guest; it feels incredible,” Styles — who had performed on the NBC show four times prior — expressed during his monologue. “It’s like when you discover someone likes you beyond just a friend. Saturday Night Live and I have elevated our relationship, and similar to all my serious connections, we’re about to share one unforgettable night together, and then we’ll part ways.”
While Styles maintained that music was his top priority, he still made time for showcasing his comedic talent, enjoying moments with loved ones, and sporting fabulous hair. “I love being here at SNL. It has such a rich history,” he shared with enthusiasm.
