LIVE from New York, it’s… to be announced.
Saturday Night Live is exactly one month away from debuting its 42nd season, which means Lorne Michaels & Co. need to get busy when it comes to the casting department.
Not only do they have three slots to fill following those surprise firings… but we STILL don’t have any names for the celebrity hosts for this new batch of episodes!

Luckily, SNL has a plan to figure out which celebs are perfect for the job — get Twitter to decide for them!
The late night sketch comedy series started the hashtag #SNLHost on Wednesday to get viewers’ suggestions… and they’ve already gotten quite a few responses from some high-profile performers.
We’re talking Olympic champ Simone Biles & the rest of the Final Five, Billy Eichner, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend‘s Rachel Bloom, and more!!!
Ch-ch-check out who could very well be hosting the premiere of Saturday Night Live on October 2 (below)!!!
