Jacob Elordi Hosts First SNL Episode of 2024 Amid Mixed Reviews

Episode features recurring theme of Elordi's good looks, appearances by Reneé Rapp and Rachel McAdams, and sparks lively social media discussion.

Jacob Elordi, known for his roles in 'The Kissing Booth' and 'Euphoria', hosted the first episode of Saturday Night Live (SNL) in 2024, with his height and good looks being a recurring theme in several sketches.
Elordi's opening monologue included a joke about an explicit scene from his recent film 'Saltburn', and he also featured in a mock ad for Alaska Airlines, a reality dating show sketch, and a sketch about a women-only AA meeting.
Musical guest Reneé Rapp, star of the new movie version of 'Mean Girls', performed, and actress Rachel McAdams, who played Regina George in the original 'Mean Girls', made a surprise appearance.
Despite some memorable moments, reviews of the episode were mixed, with some critics noting a lack of variety in Elordi's roles and others calling it a 'mostly weak episode'.
However, the episode was notable for its edgier humor, including jokes about recent news events and popular figures, and it sparked lively discussion on social media.
