Oh, boy. Sabrina Carpenter is locked in to make her hosting debut on Saturday Night Live, and she says the show has no idea what’s coming for it.
The singer was announced as one of SNL‘s next guest stars on Thursday (Sept. 18), with NBC revealing that she will pull double duty as both the host and musical guest of its Oct. 18 episode. Bad Bunny and Amy Poehler will also host episodes at the beginning of the upcoming season — which kicks off Oct. 4 — while Doja Cat and Role Model will serve as the first two musical guests.
Shortly after the news was unveiled, Carpenter shared it on her Instagram and wrote, “they’re gonna regret this.”
The Grammy winner’s hosting debut has been a long time coming. She first appeared on the show in May 2024 to perform her breakthrough single “Espresso,” a few months after which she joined in on SNL‘s 50th-anniversary festivities to perform “Homeward Bound” with Paul Simon and star alongside Pedro Pascal in a hilarious “Domingo” sketch.
Now, Carpenter will return to 30 Rock with a brand-new album under her belt, with Man’s Best Friend dropping in August. Featuring Billboard Hot 100-topping lead single “Manchild,” the project debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, marking Carpenter’s second album to do so.
“you guys have made Man’s Best Friend my second #1 album and my highest debut ever,” she reacted on Instagram at the time. “that is very surreal!!! i feel so lucky to have such beautiful love and support all around me … to see the way you are all resonating with it just makes me feel like the luckiest girl in the world.”
