Los Angeles, CA.- Country singing sensation Taylor Swift is not only going out with ‘New Moon’ star Taylor Lautner; she’s also headed to make a guest appearance on ‘Saturday Night Live.’

NBC has announced that country singer Taylor Swift will be hosting Saturday Night Live on November 7.

Lady Gaga and Madonna shared the stage on Saturday Night Live and ended up with a cat fight and making up.

Saturday Night Live opened its 35th season with Megan Fox as host and Jenny Slate dropping the F-bomb accidentally in a sketch.

Casey Wilson and Michaela Watkins are both dropped from Saturday Night Live, just a few days after former Upright Citizen Brigade troupers Nasim Pedrad and Jenny Slate joined the SNL cast.
Neil Patrick Harris, who stars on the hit show “How I Met Your Mother”, finally became the host of Saturday Night Live last night.
After Tina Fey came back and reprised her role as Sarah Palin on SNL during the election season last year, SNL was having trouble getting back to their old, funny non-politics skits. With Neil Patrick Harris opening up the 2009 with a bang, SNL made the right choice for a host, and after 20 years in Hollywood… it’s about time!
Harris’ opening monologue was “legendary”, roasting his fellow former child star, Fred Savage as he told the viewers that he was supposed to host SNL back when he was a kid, but SNL chose Savage instead. The skit where Harris played a grinding fitness guru was hilarious, followed by “Saving Broadway” where Harris played Mark of “Rent”, Taylor Swift (that night’s musical guest star) played street-smart Annie and the rest gave life to other Broadway characters.
When Harris started playing the keyboards backed up by the SNL cast playing other instruments in an orchestral arrangement of Doogie Howser’s theme song, the ending was just brilliant. If you missed Neil Patrick Harris on SNL, we’ve got pictures and videos right after the jump…
Saturday Night Live has been a hit these past weeks because of the Palin skits and campaign-related jokes, but when Sarah Palin made an appearance last month, it was the highest rating SNL received this year with about 14 million viewers tuned in.
On Saturday, SNL featured the real John McCain and the show pulled a 9.0 overnight ratings, about 15% lower than the episode of Palin’s appearance. Of course, the SNL skits won’t be complete without Tina Fey acting as Palin. While the ratings wasn’t too good for McCain with only 12 million viewers, SNL can’t complain.
With Ben Affleck hosting the show and David Cook making his first appearance since American Idol to promote his self-titled album to be released on November 18. Cook sang his first single, “Leave a Light On” and received plenty of raves from fans. I wouldn’t be shocked if Cook had something to do with the SNL’s Saturday ratings.
