A preview for the December 16 episode of Saturday Night Live on NBC features actress and comedian Kate McKinnon, singer-songwriter Billie Eilish, and comic Ego Nwodim.
In this episode, Billie will be a musical guest while Kate will serve as the show’s presenter. The first part of the promo featured the three celebrities talking about their favourite aspects of Christmas. Kate continued her list of typical items, including lights, decorations, the Rockefeller tree, and the birthday of the unconquered Sun God Mithra, while Ego and Billie mentioned more commonplace items like Yule alters and root vegetables.

As the Barbie actress and former SNL cast member continued to list Candy Canes as something to get you in the Christmas mood, Ego, like the rest of us, was equally taken aback by the earlier responses.
Commentaries on X have been a platform for celebrity fans to share their excitement and anticipation for the upcoming episode.
One wrote, “IM PUMPED. So wish I entered the ticket draw this year to hopefully get in to see this show recorded live.”
“Kate and Billie; this is going to be GREAT!!! 🤘🏻”, wrote another fan.
The “What Was I Made For” singer debuted on Saturday Night Live (SNL) in 2019 as a musical guest with actor Woody Harrelson during the show’s season 45 premiere. Alongside her brother Finneas O’Connell, Billie sang I Love You and Bad Guy.
On December 11, 2011, she gave her second performance. The singer appeared in the Season 47 Holiday special as both a guest star and host. She sang Male Fantasy and Happier Than Ever with Finneas this time.
She will be on the show for the third time this Saturday, December 16.
