Morgan Wallen’s Unexpected Exit from ‘Saturday Night Live’
Country singer Morgan Wallen caused a stir on the latest episode of ‘Saturday Night Live’ (SNL) following his dramatic exit at the show’s conclusion.
Details of Wallen’s Departure
After performing two songs during the show, Wallen made a swift exit, departing from the stage as the cast gathered for their traditional goodbye. Shortly after, he shared an image of his private jet on Instagram, further fueling public intrigue regarding his sudden departure.
Show’s Response to the Event
The incident did not go unnoticed during the show’s content. In a light-hearted moment, SNL addressed Wallen’s walk-off twice throughout the episode. The hosts joked, “This was the worst week for the stock market since the summer of 2020. But remember—then—was Trump too. In the past two days, investors have lost over $6 trillion.”
Cold Open Remarks
During the Cold Open, cast member James Austin Johnson, portraying former President Donald Trump, made references to Wallen’s social media comments regarding “The Kingdom of God.” His satirical take included remarks about imposing tariffs on uninhabited islands, quipping, “I want to visit there. Can you imagine that? Big Mac and Fraskirt. Take me to the Kingdom of God. Remember?”
Musical Performances and Upcoming Releases
Wallen appeared on SNL as the musical guest in anticipation of his new album set to release in May. This episode, hosted by Mikey Madison, the star of ‘Anora’ and a recent Academy Award winner, also featured Jack Black returning to host for the first time in nearly two decades. Elton John and Brandi Carlile performed as the musical guests.
