Watch SNL Parody Ariana Grande, Megan Trainor, Sam Smith, & Lorde With Young Tarts & Old Farts Commercial
A highlight of tonight’s funny (really) and cameo-filled (Jennifer Lawrence, Crazy Eyes) episode of Saturday Night Live was the fake commercial for Young Tarts & Old Farts, a compilation of duets in the style of Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga’s recent chart-topping album Cheek To Cheek. This gave the cast an opportunity to break out impressions of current pop stars like Ariana Grande, Megan Trainor, Sam Smith, Robyn, Macklemore, 2 Chainz, and Lorde. The episode’s musical guest Kendrick Lamar played himself in a duet with Taran Killam’s Barry Manilow. Watch it below.
Earlier in the show, Woody Harrelson’s monologue was a sung tribute to 1989 (the first year he hosted) with plenty of Taylor Swift references.
