Each of the upcoming hosts will be accompanied by a high-profile guest: “Drivers License” singer Olivia Rodrigo will be featured on 15 May, and Lil Nas X will appear on 22 May.

Both Key and Taylor-Joy will follow up on Elon Musk, who is set to host on 8 May with Miley Cyrus as a musical guest.

The official Twitter account for Saturday Night Live confirmed on Monday that they will be the final two hosts wrapping up the ongoing season.
