Gracie Abrams Goes From Juliet to Romeo During ‘SNL’ Halloween Performances
The singer performed “Hit the Wall” and “Here You Come, There You Go” in costumes lifted from Baz Luhrmann’s 1996 film.
Gracie Abrams underwent a dramatic costume transformation on Saturday Night Live's Halloween episode, doubling as both Claire Danes' Juliet and Leonardo DiCaprio's Romeo in Baz Luhrmann's Romeo + Juliet. For her opening number, the singer wore Danes' angelic costume, entering the stage behind an aquarium that evoked the iconic fish-tank meeting scene.
Later in the show, Abrams changed into DiCaprio's knight's attire, complete with a Hawaiian shirt, for her second performance. This marked her second time as a musical guest on SNL, following her December 2024 debut hosted by Chris Rock. The appearance took place during Abrams' biggest commercial year yet, with her third album Daughter from Hell debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
The debut was a result of the album's lead single, "Hit the Wall," which also topped the Billboard Hot 100.
