Saturday Night Live is preparing to dance the night away on May 4 with host and musical guest Dua Lipa.
During Ryan Gosling's hosting gig on April 13, SNL announced that the 28-year-old singer will take on both coveted roles next month as she continues to promote her upcoming third studio album, Radical Optimism.
"DOUBLE DUTY DUA," the "Levitating" singer wrote on Instagram late Saturday evening, just one day after dropping "Illusion," the new song off the highly anticipated release.
The hosting gig will immediately follow the May 3 release of Radical Optimism, which Dua first announced back in March.
She previously stopped by Studio 8H at 30 Rockefeller Plaza back in January 2021 to sing "Don't Start Now" and "Levitating" with host Kristen Wiig, who just recently returned to her old digs for the April 6 episode alongside RAYE.
It's been an epic season of SNL thus far as Saltburn star Jacob Elordi helmed the first episode of the new year, alongside musical guest Reneé Rapp. Following Dakota Johnson and Justin Timberlake's SNL return on Jan. 27, The Bear star Ayo Edebiri made her SNL debut, alongside returning musical guest Jennifer Lopez. Season 49 has also included host and musical guest appearances from Josh Brolin, Ariana Grande, Emma Stone and Sydney Sweeney.
The NBC sketch comedy show kicked off its 49th season on Oct. 14, and brought SNL alum Pete Davidson back to Studio 8H to host the premiere. SNL was forced to go dark and cut its 48th season short earlier this year due to the Writers Guild of America strike. However, with the WGA reaching a deal with the AMPTP, Saturday Night Live was able to return to TV.
