Dave Chappelle to Make ‘SNL’ Hosting Debut During Election Week

Dave Chappelle will host “Saturday Night Live” Nov. 12, marking his much-anticipated (and overdue) debut. That’s five days after Election Day, as if “SNL” needed any more buzz that week.

Musical guest will be legendary hip-hop group A Tribe Called Quest, which is releasing its first studio album in 18 years. “We Got It From Here … Thank You 4 Your Service” is due out on Nov. 11, followed by Tribe’s “SNL” debut the next night.

The group’s new album is the last to feature founding Tribe member Phife Dawg. The emcee passed away in March following a battle with diabetes. He was 45.

This weekend, “Doctor Strange” star Benedict Cumberbatch hosts the NBC sketch-comedy staple. His musical guest is Solange.

“SNL” is enjoying yet-another resurgence in its 42nd season, thanks in large part to this whacky election. Donald Trump alone has provided plenty of fodder, giving “Saturday Night Live” all the material it needed for a TV ratings and creativity boon.

Michael Bublé Putting Career ‘On Hold’ After Son’s Cancer Diagnosis

Michael Buble announced on Facebook early Friday morning (Nov. 4) that his three-year-old son Noah had been diagnosed with cancer and that he and wife Luisana Lopilato would be stepping away from their careers to focus on Noah’s treatment.

“We are devastated about the recent cancer diagnosis of our oldest son Noah who is currently undergoing treatment in the US. We have always been very vocal about the importance of family and the love we have for our children,” the Canadian singer wrote in the FB statement. “Luisana and I have put our careers on hold in order to devote all our time and attention to helping Noah get well.”

Buble released his ninth studio album, Nobody But Me, on Oct. 21 — which currently sits at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 — and was set to host the 2017 Juno Awards.

“At this difficult time, we ask only for your prayers and respect for our privacy” he continued. “We have a long journey in front of us and hope that with the support of family, friends and fans around the world, we will win this battle, God willing.”
