Taylor Swift makes surprise appearance on Saturday Night Live with host Dakota Johnson
Taylor Swift joined host Dakota Johnson during the opening monologue of Saturday Night Live, delivering a comedic sketch about their friendship before the show’s curtain call.
Taylor Swift surprised the studio audience by appearing on Saturday Night Live during host Dakota Johnson’s opening monologue. In the sketch, Swift joked that she is not Johnson’s “literal therapist,” referencing a recurring weekly visit to her home with an empty wine bottle. Johnson replied, “Yeah, well, I have manners,” and the two continued a light-hearted exchange about late-night conversations on the couch.
“I’m not your therapist actually,” Swift said. “You just show up once a week at my house with an empty bottle of wine and ask if I want some.”
“Yeah, well, I have manners.” – Johnson
The banter described their typical evenings, with Swift noting she often ends the night by saying she should go to bed, prompting Johnson’s “Sleepover — yay!” comment. The sketch concluded with Swift mentioning that their wine sessions finish with Pedialyte and a ride home provided by her security team.
During the curtain call, Swift returned to the stage with a blue and white cake for Johnson, who had turned 37 the previous Sunday. The episode’s musical guest was the band Turnstile.
