Selena Gomez

Tonight's episode of Saturday Night Live features Selena Gomez as host and Post Malone as the musical guest. The episode had a pretty hilarious cold open ...

The series first started airing all the way back in 1991 and has been on for decades since then. Saturday Night Live titled the skit Old Enough: Long Term Boyfriend. Old Enough: Long Term Boyfriend features Gomez sending her long term boyfriend, played by Mikey Day, to Sephora, and he's wearing the same adorable red vest that the toddlers wear in the original series. In one of the episodes first skits the cast of Saturday Night Live and Gomez parody one of Netflix's latest additions– Old Enough. Old Enough, a Japanese variety series where toddlers(ages 2-5) go and run errands by themselves while a camera crew follows along.

In a sketch where Selena Gomez played the host of a television program about notable inventions in history, five-time “SNL” host and Gomez's “Only Murders in ...

Gomez’s episode was shared with musical guest Post Malone, who is also making his “SNL” debut. If you post it, you will lose the penis.” I remember telling my friend I was cast in a show called ‘Only Murders,’ and she said, ‘Sounds sexy. “The greatest gag she ever goofed was marrying a guy like me. Natasha Lyonne will make her hosting debut alongside musical guest Japanese Breakfast. Previous hosts of Season 47 have included Lizzo, Jake Gyllenhaal, Jerrod Carmichael, Zoe Kravitz, Oscar Isaac, John Mulaney, Willem Dafoe and Will Forte. This trial has given me a lot to consider. “I saw her from afar. Any hot co-stars?’ And I was like, ‘Depends. Do you like the banjo?'” Her energy was magnetic. I couldn’t crack it — but then, I met her.” Her eyes were endless. But I just couldn’t figure out what noise.

The original Old Enough is a 90s series that hails from Japan shot documentary-style as filmmakers follow toddlers on errands for their parents, which recently ...

He gets the job done and moves on to buy some shallots, but he entertains a small distraction by chatting up another boyfriend out and about for his girlfriend, played by Kenan Thompson. Kelsey’s errand requires him to visit Sephora, but he’s quickly overwhelmed with the aisles and aisles of makeup to choose from and he hilariously begins to cry. Matt preps for his big trip out into the world with a little help from Kelsey, who gives him everything he needs: a giant water bottle, a messenger bag, and a huge yellow flag emblazoned with the word “Stop.”

First-time 'SNL' host Selena Gomez spoke in tonight's opening monologue about her Hulu series 'Only Murders in the Building' and more.

“I love you, you love me, we’re a happy family.” The host went on to explain that she’s glad to be on the show because she’s single, and she’s heard that it’s “a great place” to find love. [There’s] Scarlett Johansson and Colin Jost, and Pete [Davidson] and…Machine Gun Kelly,” deadpanned Gomez. “Since I don’t want to get on the dating apps, I’m putting out into the universe that I’m manifesting love. Even if Only Murders isn’t all that sexy, Gomez said it’s been “cool” working on the series with two SNL legends. We then cut to a shot of the actress with the purple dinosaur from one of her appearances on the children’s show Barney & Friends back in the early 2000s. “This is a big moment for me,” she said.

The actress and pop star gave her mom a shout-out, manifested love, did a Miley Cyrus impression, and even sought the advice of two legendary SNL comedians, her ...

She pivoted and ended the monologue with a singalong that threw it way back to her Barney days. Scarlett Johansson and Colin Jost. Pete — and Machine Gun Kelly. And since I don’t really want to try the dating apps, I just want to put it out in the universe that I’m manifesting love. “And I’ve heard SNL is a great place to find romance.

North Texas natives and superstars Selena Gomez and Post Malone will be joining the Saturday Night Live cast this week as host and musical guest, ...

Saturday Night Live is currently in its 47th season, one of NBC's landmark television series. Post Malone grew up in Grapevine and whose friendly persona is just as popular as his chart-topping music career. Gomez is a Grand Prairie native who first started on Disney's Wizards of Waverly Place. Her prominence on the show skyrocketed her to instant fame, becoming one of the most followed celebrities in the world.

"SNL" this weekend did a spoof of Netflix's "Old Enough!" Japanese reality series, but sending helpless longterm boyfriends to run errands.

Heidi Gardner has a lot of fun playing the helpful Sephora salesperson and Kenan Thompson plays another flag-carrying boyfriend out on an errand. Her read of, “I might have a bottl– a glass of wine. If you haven’t yet experienced the pure joy that is Netflix’s Old Enough! (which is actually a long-running show from Japan, Hajimete no Otsukai), do that.

Tonight's episode of 'SNL' featured a pre-taped Steve Martin sketch on the inventor of the whoopee cushion.

“It was that night he realized the funniest noise that could come out of a butt was a fart,” notes Gosh, who explains that following Gizmo’s epiphany, whoopie cushions began flying off shelves. We then cut to Gizmo himself, who explains that back in the early ’60s, he was just a “struggling gag inventor,” who had thus far created only an early prototype of the whoopie cushion. “We begin with Archie Gizmo, the brilliant inventor of the whoopie cushion.”

"Saturday Night Live" cast members were willing to "do it" and be with a "single" Selena Gomez, but she turned them all down...mostly.

During her monologue Saturday night, Gomez said she was excited to host the show, something she always watched with her mom. She turned down Kyle Mooney and new cast member James Austin Johnson, but when Punkie Johnson stepped in to save her from these "men harassing" her, Gomez teased, "honestly it's a vibe, but let's see how the after party goes." "I've heard that 'SNL' is a great place to find romance," she joked.

During her "Saturday Night Live" monologue Selena Gomez announced that she was single and looking for a relationship.

The Only Murders in the Building star didn't quite kill in the confines of 30 Rock.

- Despite a strong monologue and “A Peek at Pico,” Gomez came off as somewhat flat throughout the evening. - Sarah Sherman got another “Update” segment as a correspondent who wildly favors Michael Che and lives to denigrate Colin Jost. Sherman absolutely killed in herfirst appearance last fall—it was one of the most electric “Update” debuts in recent memory—so it’s no surprise the show has tried to repeat the feat. - Aidy Bryant deserves special mention—and perhaps dispensation—as the hypersexual Bratz doll who comes to life to counsel her suburban teen owner through a parental divorce: “We watch over you every day, like God, but slutty,” she says, and confesses she has designs on the kid’s dad. This was an air sandwich—a good premise, a sharp moment at the end, and a bunch of generic business in between. (Man, I wish I had the guts of the writer who had access to the comic talents of Steve Martin and delivered him a script premised on flatulence.) Steve Martin shows up (!) in a pre-taped piece in which Gomez is the host of a “Inventor Documentary” about the inventor of novelties like the whoopie cushion. - The show deserves points for trying to take on a topical pop-cultural moment in “Irish Play” (in this case, photos of Take Me Out star Jesse Williams’ onstage nudity being leaked), and it starts out well. This week, there was added potential because of the possibility of cameos from Gomez’s Only Murders costars Steve Martin and Martin Short. In this episode, we only saw half of that duo (fair enough, but in less-than-stellar material) and although Gomez had a few strong moments, she didn’t quite soar on the show, partly because of the writing, partly because of her tendency to come off a bit recessive in sketches. This is a slow burner that was more of a chuckle than a LOL, but it was a fresh and fun meta concept, and then they revealed the third sister’s gown has a cutout revealing her ass. A Netflix show about Japanese toddlers who are tasked with doing errands for their parents and abandoned on public transportation—yes, this is an actual thing—was the solid construct for “Old Enough,” in which a woman (Gomez) asks her childlike long-term boyfriend (Mikey Day) to pick up a few things for her, without her help, if he can stop playing video games. Another demerit: Kate McKinnon opened things up with an impression of MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace that sounded nothing like Wallace and lacked a point of view (and the show did Wallace additionally dirty by misspelling her first name in the chyron). Wallace isn’t the most dramatic anchor on air, but every newsperson has tendencies that can be amplified into comedy, yet there was no attempt here on the page or in performance. The former child actor and Disney star Selena Gomez has achieved recent critical praise in a certain lane: She has a dry, deadpan comic delivery that has made her a beguiling part of the comedy Only Murders in the Building, able to hold her own against SNL veterans Martin Short and Steve Martin. But this affect can read as low-energy in certain lights—she gives Aubrey Plaza vibes sans Plaza’s occasionally manic spark—so Gomez is not the most obvious choice for live sketch comedy.

"SNL" video: Intuition drives Selena Gomez into a jealous rage -- or is SHE the cheating party secretly receiving "Dude Nudes"?

By focusing on the outlandishness of the trial rather than the he said/she said of it all, it’s quite forgiving of both Depp and Heard. We can all do things and feel absolutely foolish after; it’s what people do. Despite the seeming spitefulness of the segment, it’s actually pretty forgiving of all parties involved. (We can’t all be both guest and musical hosts, Lizzo.)

Selena Gomez took a stab at impersonating her friend and fellow pop star Miley Cyrus during her turn as host on 'SNL' this weekend.

“Fleet Foxes is one of my favourite bands.” Gomez then proceeded to launch into an impression of Cyrus telling her to just be herself and “have fun”. Post Malone is a longtime fan of the band, and ‘Love/Hate Letter To Alcohol was recently teased by the rapper as featuring Fleet Foxes frontman Robin Pecknold. “He’s the most beautiful fucking vocalist, the most epic fucking guy,” Post said.

Selena Gomez was joined by musical guest Post Malone for her Saturday Night Live hosting debut.

"And I prefer drama," added Yang. "So grateful and excited. See you May 14!!!" I would like to say that I'm looking for my soulmate, but at this point I will take anyone." "One reason I've been very happy to host is because I'm single," Gomez said. Want to get the biggest stories from PEOPLE every weekday?

Martin did not content himself with a mere mention in Gomez’s episode: he also makes a key cameo in a filmed segment, “American Inventor.” Gomez hosts a profile of Arthur Gizmo (Martin), the innovative engineer behind the whoopee cushion.

As for Sherman, with “Bratz Doll” and “Baby Monitor,” she was one of the more featured cast members in this episode. In “Three Daughters,” both she and Nwodim — as the non-weird sisters — were given absolutely nothing to do. While the pre-tape sketch provided Steve Martin as the “star” — Archie Gizmo, inventor of the whoopie cushion and dozens of other gag gifts — both Martin and Gomez gave the floor to Bryant for this sketch. In fact, while Day deserved praise in last week’s episode for his consistency as a performer (where some could call it one-note), it’s worth noting that “Old Enough! Long-term Boyfriends!” actually took him out of that wheelhouse and comfort zone of the type of characters people always say he plays. From the “Irish” accent work from Cecily Strong and Gomez — whose character was struggling with an Australian accent — to the harried Thompson, ultimately deciding to just do the play all by himself, “Irish Play” was delightfully chaotic. “Maybe it’s a metaphor for being different or ugly or stupid or gay,” McKinnon’s “very normal” character guesses, trying to get to the bottom of the fairy tale trope of there being a “weird” sister. While this week was filled with Kyle Mooney, it’s worth noting the sharpshooting performance of Thompson and Day. Both actually crossed paths in “Old Enough! Longterm Boyfriends!,” in what can strangely — as they were both playing men in their late 30s — be described as an adorable moment. Along with her early talking about one of the sisters possibly being weird on purpose, it seemed like there was a chance that “SNL” was trying to do something with the “Three Daughters” sketch, even if it wasn’t especially funny. The only interesting thing about the sketch was that it’s surprising “SNL” hasn’t had Mooney do more Depp impressions over the years. (Again, the cold open from Benedict Cumberbatch’s return episode last week was a much-appreciated take and twist on the political premise, as it also had more of a perspective than all the other impression parade cold opens combined.) On the other, that’s pretty much the only thing to appreciate about this sketch. While the live audience definitely seemed to want her to end up with Punkie Johnson, sadly, that was not what the sketch “Intuition” ended up being about. (The other was in “Irish Play.”)

Selena Gomez was joined by musical guest Post Malone for her Saturday Night Live hosting debut.

"And I prefer drama," added Yang. "So grateful and excited. See you May 14!!!" I would like to say that I'm looking for my soulmate, but at this point I will take anyone."

After her gig hosting Saturday Night Live for the first time, pop star Selena Gomez stepped out for the after party in a sexy, strapless black dress.

“She said, ‘Just be yourself and have fun,’’ Gomez said, imitating the distinctive husky voice of her buddy. Gomez started by saying she asked Cyrus for advice on hosting SNL as a veteran of the gig. The dress featured a thigh-high slit, framing Gomez's legs and drawing attention to her silver heels.

During Selena Gomez's 'Saturday Night Live' opening monologue, the first-time host declared that she's “manifesting love.”

“One reason I'm really excited to host SNL is because I'm single,” Gomez joked at the top of the show. I would like to say that I'm looking for my soulmate, but at this point, I will take anyone.” Following her hosting duties on May 14, Gomez attended the celebration in a strapless black Michael Stewart dress with a thigh-high slit, which she kept closed with one hand in multiple photographs.
