Druski Leads One Of ‘SNL’s Most Star-Studded Curtain Calls Ever With Emma Stone, Michael B. Jordan, Austin Butler, Plus Chappelle, Rock, Goggins
Hollywood heavy hitters turned out to witness Saturday Night Live history on Saturday as comedian Druski became the fist digital creator to host the venerable NBC late-night sketch program. Durski’s Eddington co-star Emma Stone and newly elected Texas Senator James Talarico were expected to join the host for the curtain call at the end of […]
This week’s “Saturday Night Live” episode marked a historic milestone as Druski made history as the first content creator to host the show. The star-studded gathering began with Texas Senator-elect James Talarico joining the cold open, and the excitement only grew from there. Emma Stone arrived in Druski’s monologue, while Walton Goggins performed alongside The Strokes during one of the musical segments.
However, the true showstopper occurred in the “SNL” goodnights segment, where an array of A-list celebrities descended upon the stage.
Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle made a surprise appearance to bid farewell to Druski, leaving him visibly amazed as they took the stage. Hidden in the background, eagle-eyed viewers spotted Michael B. Jordan and Austin Butler, along with Stone, Goggins, and Talarico standing on the crowded stage. Jordan and Butler weren’t featured in any sketches but their cameos may have been linked to Goggins' musical performance, in which he danced to The Strokes' recent single "Going Shopping."
The two actors are currently filming the feature film reboot "Miami Vice ’85," which features Goggins as well, and it's likely they were invited by Goggins to join him at the "SNL" stage during the production in New York.
Chappelle's presence on the show was no surprise, given his recent hosting stints following both of Donald Trump's presidential wins. Chappelle made his usual entrance with a cigarette in hand. The energy from the celebrities' attendance echoed the enthusiasm surrounding Druski's hosting, as the show continued to bridge the gap between the creator ecosystem and mainstream television.
Throughout the night, Druski starred in several notable sketches, including a "You Can See Everything" parody in which he portrayed Elizabeth Holmes. Thank you, Druski, The Strokes, James Talarico, Emma Stone, Walton Goggins! Goodnight!
