McRae is also returning to Studio 8H for her second time as SNL’s Musical Guest. Her upcoming performance will follow just days after the release of her third album, So Close to What. The Canadian singer and songwriter made her SNL debut on November 18, 2023 (Season 49, Episode 5) when she performed her hit songs “Greedy” and “Grave.”

One day after the release of her newest album MAYHEM, Lady Gaga is set to pull double duty as the Host and Musical Guest for the March 8, 2025 episode. And it’ll be her second time taking on both roles; the first time was on November 16, 2013 (Season 39, Episode 6). 

The Grammy winner’s upcoming performance will mark her fifth appearance as a Musical Guest. Lady Gaga made her SNL debut on October 3, 2009 and returned to the stage again in 2011, 2013, and 2016.
