- On the red carpet, Carrey told reporters, “We haven’t seen each other since The Grinch,” as Momsen replied, “Yeah, it’s been 25 years.”
- Carrey inducted Soundgarden with a tribute that recalled hosting Saturday Night Live in 1996 when the band performed and praised their impact on his love of rock.
- Momsen performed “Rusty Cage” with Soundgarden and joined Brandi Carlile, Mike McCready, and Jerry Cantrell for “Black Hole Sun,” drawing on her history touring with the band with The Pretty Reckless.
