Who’s hosting Saturday Night Live tonight, May 15?
By Matt Moore
Saturday Night Live is coming off one of the biggest episodes of season 46. Who will SNL turn to to keep the momentum going?
Elon Musk entered last week surrounded by controversy after SNL tapped him to host the 18th episode of the season. While Musk shouldn’t expect any Emmy nominations, he did the best he could in his sketches. More importantly, he helped the show become the third highest rated episode of the season behind only Dave Chappelle and Chris Rock.
Tonight, it’s Keegan-Michael Key’s turn to show SNL fans what he can do. The veteran sketch performer and comedian is tonight’s host. He’ll be supported by musical guest Olivia Rodrigo.
Key’s stints on MadTV and Key and Peele mean he’s one of the most qualified hosts of the season. Expect a musical number or two as well as Key could team up with his Schmigadoon! co-star Cecily Strong.
It’s also the second to last episode of season 46. It’s possible the writers and cast will be digging deep into their bag of ideas before the summer hiatus.
Check out our episode preview right here to learn why Keegan-Michael Key’s dramatic background could be just as important as his sketch experience.
