Digital creator Druski hosts star-studded episode of Saturday Night Live
Comedian Druska hosted Saturday Night Live, drawing a large crowd of Hollywood celebrities including Emma Stone, Michael B. Jordan, Austin Butler, Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle.
Comedian Druska became the first digital creator to host the long-running NBC sketch show Saturday Night Live, attracting a notable lineup of guests. Actress Emma Stone, who appears with Druska in the opening monologue, and newly elected Texas Senator James Talarico, featured in the cold open, joined the host for the curtain call. The episode also featured Oscar winners Stone and Michael B. Jordan, Oscar-nominee Austin Butler and actor Walton Goggins, who were in town filming Miami Vice ’85.
Top comedians Chris Rock, an SNL alum, and Dave Chappelle, a four-time host, stood beside Druska onstage. Morgan Neville, director of the Lorne documentary about SNL creator Lorne Michaels, was also in attendance.
"I’m overwhelmed by the turnout," Druska said, name-checking Rock, Chappelle and Goggins before pulling Jordan to the front of the stage.
The show also referenced past unconventional hosts, noting that both Donald Trump and Elon Musk have previously hosted the program, with Trump appearing twice.
