Christmas is coming early on Saturday Night Live because Ariana Grande is hosting the final 2025 episode with CHER as the musical guest on December 20th. This has been the best combo since. I don’t know since! Kudos for making it happen. I just hope it doesn’t disappoint. Plus, you know they will do at least one skit together, and maybe another where Ariana does an impression of Cher. Maybe they can do a Freaky Friday thingy!
In other SNL news, Melissa McCarthy hosts as Dijon sings on December 6th. The following week, Josh O’Connor and Lily Allen do the same.
Fun fact: This is only the second time Cher has been a musical guest on SNL. The last time she belted out her songs on the variety show was 1987. And she hasn’t aged in nearly 40 years.
Oh, and not-so-fun fact for Cher: Grande wasn’t even alive in ’87; she made her debut in 1993. How Wicked is that?
