Roddy Ricch has pulled out of his scheduled musical-guest slot on SNL this weekend and is being replaced by the Jack Antonoff-led band Bleachers
as the Omicron variant reached alarming levels in New York and “SNL” was forced to stage a dramatically scaled-down version of the show they had prepared, with a bare-bones staff and just two castmembers. That announcement was made just hours before the show was to begin.
Charli, who was to perform with Caroline Polachek and Christine and the Queens, posted on social media: “Hi everyone, due to the limited crew at tonight’s taping of ‘SNL’ my musical performances will no longer be able to go ahead,” Charli XCX wrote on Instagram. “I am devastated and heartbroken. Myself, Caroline, Christine and all our crews and teams have worked so hard all week alongside the ‘SNL’ team to bring the most amazing musical performance to life.
