‘SNL’ Sends KATSEYE Back to ‘Dream Academy’ for a Wild Season 2: Watch
The global pop group also served as the musical guest on the Sept. 26 episode.
On Saturday Night Live's season 52 premiere, girl group KATSEYE reunited for a chaotic second season on the NBC comedy show. In the "Dream Academy" sketch, four of KATSEYE's six members -- Neelsa Boyce (Saidah Belo-Osagie), Veronika Slowikowska as Isla, Sarah Sherman as Jamie, and Jane Wickline as Duff -- returned as judges for a new set of contestants.
The contestants, including Grace Reiter as Margle, trained under demanding choreographer Dorian Fylnt, played by SNL host Jalen Brunson. After messy auditions and rehearsals, the contestants performed their debut music video "Guardians of the Mist" alongside KATSEYE. KATSEYE, formed two years ago on the reality competition series Dream Academy, released their debut EP SIS (Soft Is Strong) in 2024 and made their SNL debut as musical guest performing "Animal" and "Hootie Frutti."
The six-member lineup is currently on its 31-date Wildworld Tour, which began in Europe and will tour North America in October.
