AceShowbiz - In her second promo video for her stint as this weekend's "Saturday Night Live" host, Charli XCX banters with cast member Marcello Hernandez about a variety of topics, including what the "xcx" means, how Hernandez's outfit rates on the "Brat" scale and an evaluation of his physical stature.
The first promo for this weekend's show saw the host, who is also this week's musical guest, getting "Bratty" with cast member Chloe Fineman. The midweek promo features Charli XCX and Fineman engaging in playful antics that set the tone for the rest of the week.
We've got some personal social media perspectives from this weekend's host and musical guest. The network confirmed a celebratory weekend that wraps up on Sunday, February 16th (from 8-11 P.M. ET), with a live, primetime special. This adds an extra layer of excitement to what was already shaping up to be an electrifying episode.
The show's Season 50 kicked off with Jean Smart with Nate Bargatze, Ariana Grande and Michael Keaton and Bill Burr hosting. Musical guests have included Jelly Roll, Coldplay, Stevie Nicks and Billie Eilish, making it a star-studded season.
First up, the two share the truth about their real names – and we're not sure who surprised us more. Following that, Charli XCX leaves it up to the nation to decide if Hernández's outfit is "brat" or "brong." Finally, our host and musical guest looks to keep the third promo "short" (you'll see what we mean).
"SNL" airs Saturday at 11:30 P.M. ET/8:30 P.M. PT on NBC and streams live on Peacock, and is produced in association with Broadway Video. The creator and executive producer is Lorne Michaels.
