‘SNL’: Watch Katseye Perform ‘Animal,’ ‘Hootie Frutti’
Both songs are from the Los Angeles-based girl group's latest EP, Wild
KATSEYE, a girl group formed two years ago through the Dream Academy reality competition series, made their Saturday Night Live debut on September 26. The global group performed two songs from their latest EP, Wild, released in August. The group consisted of four of its six members, as Manon Bannerman and Sophia Laforteza were currently on hiatus due to mental health concerns.
Wild is KATSEYE's fifth EP, following a successful debut EP, SIS, in 2024, and their second EP, Beautiful Chaos, which debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 in 2025. The group's lead single from Wild, "Animal," co-written by Ed Sheeran, debuted at No. 24 on the Hot 100, marking a career high. With over 30 million monthly Spotify listeners, KATSEYE has become one of the most commercially successful girl groups globally.
The group is currently on their 31-date Wildworld Tour, which began in Europe and will continue through North America, Canada, and Mexico.
