During his second stint as host of Saturday Night Live, Timothée Chalamet portrayed a wide range of musicians, from Willy Wonka during his singing monologue to the godawful SoundCloud rapper Smoke Chedda Tha A$$ Getta during a “Rap Roundtable” sketch. And then, seemingly out of nowhere, he popped up in a tank top as pop star and The Idol actor Troye Sivan. The sketch opens with Bowen Yang’s doctor interviewing his patient, played by Sarah Sherman, about why she can’t sleep at night and suffers from sleep paralysis. “Well, every night when I go to sleep, it feels like there’s…
Mancano poco più di tre ore all’inizio del concerto dei Mannequin Pussy al Brooklyn Steel di fronte a un pubblico quasi da sold out. Attorno all’isolato si è già formata una lunga fila di fan in attesa dell’apertura delle porte e i quattro musicisti non riescono a concentrarsi su molto altro, a parte il loro desiderio disperato di riposarsi almeno un po’.Hanno passato l’ultimo mese chiusi in un Ford Transit, facendosi 8400 chilometri e suonando in pratica tutte le sere. Ora si abbandonano sul divanetto del camerino, circondati da mucchi di bagagli, tazze di caffè, una stecca di Marlboro e…

It was a very musical Saturday Night Live this week, as host Timothée Chalamet celebrated the end of the 118-day actors’ strike by singing a portion of his opening monologue as Willy Wonka and then brought back his obnoxious SoundCloud rapper Smoke Chedda Tha A$$ Getta during a “Rap Roundtable” sketch honoring hip hop’s 50th anniversary.

This time, Smoke Chedda Tha A$$ Getta was sadly without his partner in rhyme, Pete Davidson’s Guap Lord Two years ago, Timothée Chalamet and Pete Davidson went viral for their Saturday Night Live sketch portraying a pair of clueless SoundCloud rappers — Smoke Chedda Tha A$$ Getta and Guap Lord, respectively — otherwise known as Xan Mob, who perform their unbearable song “Yeet” during the show “Rap Roundtable” hosted by Ego Nwodim. And, with Davidson no longer part of the SNL cast, Chalamet’s rapper returned for a “Rap Roundtable” panel honoring the 50th anniversary of hip hop that also included…
Live from New York on Saturday night, Timothée Chalamet took the stage as host of Saturday Night Live and, during his opening monologue, celebrated how the union SAG-AFTRA reached a deal with the Hollywood studios this week, putting an end to the 118-day actors’ strike. “I do feel lucky to be hosting until after the SAG strike ended because up until two days ago, and I know this is what we were all thinking about, actors couldn’t talk about their movies,” offered Chalamet. “The only thing I was allowed to talk about was that I have a commercial coming out.…

By March 1994, “The Sign” topped the Billboard Hot 100 for an impressive six non-consecutive weeks. Ace of Base’s chokehold over radio was unprecedented—all three of their singles also reached No. 1 on the Mainstream Top 40 airplay chart, making them the first band in history to rack up that achievement with a debut album. With “The Sign” in particular, it’s easy to see why: that funky beat, the strangely processed whistle, and Jenny and Linn’s ascending, occasionally growling dual performances are irresistibly sunny. Even as critics took every opportunity to call the band ABBA clones, often straight to their…
