Sabrina Carpenter is working late, because she’s celebrating Saturday Night Live’s major milestone.
The “Espresso” singer was among the many stars who joined current and former cast members—including Bowen Yang, Amy Poehler and Pete Davidson—to celebrate the long-running NBC sketch comedy series reaching 50 seasons. As Sabrina, who will perform during the special, walked the red carpet at 30 Rockefeller Plaza for ahead of the Feb. 16 primetime special, sparkled in a jeweled-covered nude gown. (See all the stars on the red carpet here.)
As for where she fits into the storied SNL canon, the Grammy winner made her debut last spring during the season 49 finale, when she joined host Jake Gyllenhaal as musical guest.
“Literally working late cuz I’m a singer,” she wrote on Instagramwhile sharing highlights from her May performance. “@nbcsnl thank you for having us I’m sooooo not chill about it and never will be.”
But, of course, her SNL ties don’t end there as just a few months later her hit “Espresso” served as inspiration for the viral “Bridesmaid Speech” sketch that introduced the new-fan favorite character Domingo (played by Marcello Hernandez).
And just a month later, Sabrina got her own short n’ sweet moment with the suave, bride-stealing character when Marcello as Domingo made a surprise appearance at her Los Angeles tour stop.
While Sabrina is celebrating alongside Marcello, creator Lorne Michaels and fellow guest stars like Bad Bunny, Tom Hanks and Scarlett Johansson, the three-hour telecast will reveal whether Domingo himself will come all this way and have to explain himself to yet another jilted groom.
Indeed, the celebration of SNL’s 50th season is bringing together cast members—including OGs Chevy Chase, Laraine Newman, Garrett Morris and more—crew and a whole lot of high profile fans. For a look at all the stars stepping out for the party, keep reading.
