Live from New York it’s—every comedian you could name.
At least, it certainly feels that way at the Saturday Night Live: The 50th Anniversary Celebration special after-party at NYC’s Plaza Hotel. The sketch comedy series’ most iconic cast members from Chevy Chase—who was the first to helm the “Weekend Update” segment—to John Mulaney (with wife Olivia Munn) stepped out at following the special, which aired live on Peacock and NBC Feb. 16.
Also on hand to celebrate? Bad Bunny, Adam Sandler, Rob Schneider, Alec Baldwin, Tina Fey, Bowen Yang, Andy Cohen, Lady Gaga, Chris Pine, Jason Sudeikis and more.
Prior to the after-party festivities, Saturday Night Live, which was created by executive producer Lorne Michaels in 1975, hosted a three-hour-plus celebratory special at Rockefeller Center’s Studio 8H, where the show has been filmed since its very first episode.
On top of the series’ current cast members including Kenan Thompson, Marcello Hernandez, Chloe Fineman, and Yang participating in the milestone moment, more stars like Miley Cyrus (three-time host, and six-time musical guest), Sabrina Carpenter (one-time musical guest) and Kim Kardashian (one-time host) made cameos.
