Comedian and internet personality Druski (Drew Desbordes) is set to host an upcoming episode of “Saturday Night Live.” Multiple outlets report that he will appear as host for the Nov. 7 episode, marking the show’s first hosting appearance by an online content creator.
The reports frame the decision as a notable shift in how “SNL” selects hosts, as the show continues through a season that some coverage describes as relying on a relatively unfamiliar cast and uneven sketches. While one outlet treats the move as especially interesting, another focuses on what the booking could signal for internet creators more broadly. The outlets also note that “SNL” representatives did not immediately respond to requests for comment, according to coverage.
