Anitta to Make ‘SNL’ Debut as Musical Guest With Host Colman Domingo

Anitta is set to make her highly anticipated debut as the musical guest on Saturday Night Live on April 11, NBC announced Thursday (March 26). The Brazilian superstar, internationally renowned for her Billboard Hot 100 hits such as “Envolver,” “Me Gusta” featuring Cardi B and Myke Towers and “Bellakeo” with Peso Pluma, will take Studio 8H stage for the first time, adding another feat to her growing list of achievements.

Sharing the spotlight with the Rio de Janeiro star on this episode is Emmy Award-winning actor Colman Domingo, who will be making his SNL hosting debut. Domingo, celebrated for his powerful performances in Euphoria and Fear the Walking Dead, will star in the upcoming drama Michael, set to hit theaters on April 24.

Anitta has been a trailblazing force in bringing Brazilian music to the global stage. From her viral reggaetón hit “Envolver” — which took the world by storm in 2022 and earned her multiple Billboard chart placements, including No. 3 on Hot Latin Songs — to her unforgettable performances at major festivals such as Coachella, she continues to break barriers as one of Brazil’s most prominent musical exports.

The Grammy-nominated artist recently dropped her latest single, “Pinterest,” an acoustic bossa nova track infused with her signature pop flair. Releasing two versions, in Spanish and Portuguese, the tender song continues to showcase her versatility and is part of her forthcoming album, Equilibrium, via Republic Records, featuring a dual-structure concept blending her Brazilian roots with international pop.

Catch Anitta and Colman Domingo on Saturday Night Live, airing on NBC on April 11 at 11:30 p.m., with livestreaming available on Peacock. Jack Black and Jack White will be the host and musical guest, respectively, the week before.
