“Saturday Night Live” announced they will be back on May 8 for its first episode since April 10, and also announced that Tesla CEO Elon Musk will be hosting the show for the first time, alongside musical Miley Cyrus, who will be making her sixth appearance as a musical guest on the show.
The show posted the news on social media, sharing a shot of the lineup on Twitter and Instagram. Musk, 49, tweeted, “Let’s find out just how live Saturday Night Live really is.”
The news comes days after Musk’s company SpaceX launched four astronauts toward orbit from the Kennedy Space Center using a recycled rocket and capsule. The astronauts, hailing from the United States, Japan, and France, docked at the International Space Station after the nearly 24-hour ride in the Dragon capsule that SpaceX’s first crew used last May in their first successful docking.
