Watch Drake Host SNL
Drake returned to SNL tonight, this time pulling double duty as host and musical guest. The Degrassi alum and Raptors global ambassador played on his black and Jewish heritage in a Bar Mitzvah-themed monologue; did fine impressions of A-Rod, Katt Williams, Jay Z, and Lil Wayne (as Steve Urkel!); and performed a couple of songs from Nothing Was The Same. Other highlights included cast member Sasheer Zamata, who got a ton of screen time in her first episode, and Kate McKinnon’s perfect Justin Bieber in the Piers Morgan Live cold open. Watch it all below.
