Billie Eilish and Paul Rudd will be the final two hosts for Saturday Night Live in 2021.

This will be Eilish’s first time hosting the comedy-sketch show and second time appearing as the musical guest, pulling “double duty”. Eilish’s hosting debut will occur December 11. Eilish joins a group containing Britney Spears, Harry Styles, and Nick Jonas (and more) as the few artists who have hosted and performed as the musical guest on the same night. Eilish will also continue the string of first-time hosts for Saturday Night Live this season: Owen Wilson, Kim Kardashian West, Rami Malek, Jason Sudeikis, Kieran Culkin, and Jonathan Majors were all tapped as first-time hosts this season, as well.

People Magazine’s “Sexiest Man Alive” Paul Rudd will host Saturday Night Live for the fifth time on December 18. Joining Rudd as the musical cast is Charli XCX, who will also be performing for the second time on the SNL stage. Rudd will join the coveted “Five-Timers Club” following hosting in 2008, 2010, 2013, and 2019.

Past episodes of Saturday Night Live are available to stream on Peacock.
