Fresh off her gig hosting this year’s Video Music Awards, Miley Cyrus has been roped into another weekend primetime slot as the host and musical guest on the first episode of the new season of Saturday Night Live.
Last year’s musical bookings would be hard to beat, but this 41st season seems to be off to a good start with the Weeknd and Demi Lovato also announced as performers for the first couple of weeks.
The season will kick off on October 3, but it remains to be seen if Miley will have her Dead Petz in tow. If nothing else, the VMAs proved that we won’t be able to predict what’s coming, whether for better or worse.
