Olivia Dean Makes SNL Debut, Dijon Announced For Next Month

TikTok-viral soft-pop singer Olivia Dean made her debut on SNL last night in an episode hosted by fellow first-timer Glen Powell. Her sophomore album The Art Of Loving arrived in September, and she sang two songs from it, “Man I Need” and “Let Alone The One You Love.”

The episode was light on the music, but Powell did sing in the pre-taped music video “I Miss My Ex’s Dad” alongside Tommy Brennan and Ben Marshall (Powell played the father in question). Other notable moments included a surprise return from former cast member Will Forte in some new MacGruber pre-tapes poking fun at the Epstein files, during which Powell and Chloe Fineman played MacGruber’s partners. And during Powell’s opening monologue, he dusted off an old film project from his teenage years featuring a familiar soundtrack.

In more SNL news, the show just announced details for their December 6 episode. Dijon will make his musical guest debut with returning host Melissa McCarthy. See highlights from last night below.
