In a bizarre turn of events, Saturday Night Live’s upcoming episode is generating buzz not just for its star-studded lineup, but for a potentially awkward reunion between Ayo Edebiri and Jennifer Lopez. It’s a tale that spans podcast trash talk to the SNL stage.
The Podcast Drama Unveiled
Ayo Edebiri, the host for this weekend’s SNL episode, made headlines when an old podcast episode resurfaced where she and co-host Laci Mosley criticized Jennifer Lopez’s singing abilities. The scathing remarks, made before Edebiri’s rise to fame, highlighted doubts about Lopez’s vocal prowess and alleged use of ghost singers. According to Edebiri, Lopez isn’t actually singing most of her songs, and she read up on some cases that proved she wasn’t. Now, with both stars set to grace the SNL stage, anticipation brews about whether tensions will flare or if they’ll play nice.

Despite the podcast incident, sources indicate that Edebiri is excited to collaborate with Lopez, while the latter is known for her ability to brush off controversies and focus on the task at hand.
Meanwhile, SNL’s pre-show antics featured a humorous teaser where Edebiri’s attempts at motivation fell flat due to factual inaccuracies about the Super Bowl airing on a Saturday. Nevertheless, the cast rallied behind Edebiri’s excitement for hosting alongside the iconic Jennifer Lopez.
