Chris Rock and Megan Thee Stallion star in a socially distanced Saturday Night Live return to the studio

Chris Rock hosted the socially distanced return of Saturday Night Live to 30 Rockefeller Plaza.

The audience was socially distanced, the band all wore face masks and everyone -the host included- was tested for COVID-19 in the lead-up to the show. 

‘I haven’t had so much stuff up  my nose since I shared a dressing room with Chris Farley,’ quipped the Fargo actor, in reference to the late SNL star.

However the real star of the long-running variety show’s return was the musical act, Megan Thee Stallion. 

For her first song, the WAP hitmaker performed her track Savage while cloaking her curvaceous figure in Zebra print 

Her first track was notable for its powerful ‘protect black women’ message, which was literally projected on the studio walls by song’s end. 

Megan -whose real name is Megan Jovon Ruth Pete- also performed her track Don’t Stop, which featured Young Thug, who also took to the stage for the performance.

The Texas native also appeared in a parody music video about the dangers of dating in a post COVID-10 world. 

The concerns about masks hiding the faces of potential romantic prospects hit home with the repeated refrain, ‘Wassup with the bottom of your face?’ 

Rock also made an appearance, getting a dig into to the dental work of President Donald Trump’s lawyer with his reference to masks ‘hiding those Giuliani teeth’.
