‘SNL’ Host Miley Cyrus Plans to Call out Nicki Minaj, Taylor Swift in a Sketch
Miley Cyrus will be calling out a lot of celebrities when she hosts and performs in the very first episode of season 41 of "Saturday Night Live." According to a HollywoodLife.com article, the 22-year-old singer plans on making fun of Nicki Minaj, 32, and Taylor Swift, 25.
"Currently lined up for the show is 'The Miley Cyrus Show' [skit], where Miley will address her feuds," an insider said. "They are still writing the skit and figuring out who Miley will play, seeing as how she will not be playing herself - those duties will go to Vanessa Bayer."
The report continued that Cyrus might want to "tread lightly" before sparking the feud between her and Minaj.
"Nicki's tired of playing games with these kids in Hollywood and if Miley's going to attack her on SNL, it's going to be open season on her Hannah Montana a**," another insider said. "Nicki will be watching the show, keeping both her eyes and ears open for the shenanigans Miley's sure to come with. But make no mistake, Nicki will have the last laugh if Miley tries to shade her on the show."
The Cyrus-Minaj feud started when Minaj called out Cyrus during the Video Music Awards for talking about her in an interview. Cyrus had commented on Minaj's tweets about not being nominated for the Video of the Year award. The two artists have not talked about the exchange that happened live during the award show.
Regardless of the potential drama that could go down Saturday night, it seems like a lot of people will not be tuning in. A lot of people have commented on Cyrus' Instagram, stating that they will not be watching the premiere simply because it will be hosted by Cyrus.
Some of the comments read:
"SNL" will premiere tonight, Oct. 3 at 11:30 p.m. ET on NBC.
