"Saturday Night Live" is back, kicking off Season 51 on Oct. 4 with Bad Bunny as host.
"It's good to be back, this is my second time hosting and fourth time being here," Bad Bunny said during his opening monologue. "I think Marcello (Hernandez) is getting nervous that Lorne (Michaels) has a new favorite Latino."
The reggaeton star first took on hosting duties in 2023 to viral success (remember that Pedro Pascal skit?) and most recently appeared on the show as the musical guest for the Season 50 finale in May. Bad Bunny's second stint on "SNL" comes just a week after he announced that he'll be taking on the biggest stage in music: the 2026 Apple Music Super Bowl halftime show.
"You might not know this, but I'm doing the Super Bowl halftime show and I'm very happy," he said. "I think everyone is happy about it, even Fox News."
He then played a montage of Fox News anchors edited to make it sound like they were praising him and saying, "Bad Bunny is my favorite musician, and he should be the next president."
