Being a Saturday Night Live host/musical guest is still one of the most important gauntlets a celebrity can run. Do well, and your sketches will be posted on TikTok alongside videos of people making slime for eternity. Do poorly, and you’re Ashlee Simpson, also posted on TikTok for eternity. Dua Lipa is up next, taking on double duty as host and musical guest on May 4. Then Maya Rudolph, promoting her show, Loot, is hosting alongside Vampire Weekend as musical guest on May 11. And then, a duo that somehow only exists through the lens of Taylor Swift will be taking over. Jake Gyllenhaal, noted Swift ex and the target of “All Too Well,†will be hosting along noted Swift protégée Sabrina Carpenter of “That’s that me espresso†fame. You know … SNL goes pretty late … but Carpenter has experience with that … ’cause she’s a singer. Below, all of season 49’s esteemed hosts and musical guests.

Season 49 so far
