Overview

• On Oct. 11, singer‑songwriter Role Model made his Saturday Night Live musical‑guest debut during Season 51’s second episode.
• During “Sally, When the Wine Runs Out,” Charli XCX appeared as his surprise “Sally,” continuing his live‑show tradition of bringing a guest for the song.
• He later performed the more subdued “Some Protector,” drawing from the deluxe edition of his album Kansas Anymore.
• Charli’s “Max’s Kansas City” tee matched a shirt Role Model wore in the week’s promos, though online chatter tried to tie it to Taylor Swift despite no confirmation from the artists.
• The episode was hosted by Amy Poehler and included surprise appearances by former cast members Tina Fey and Seth Meyers.
