Before Charli XCXs Saturday evening LivMaking his hosting debut this weekend, the singer teased cast member Marcello Hernández in a new promo.

At one point in the video, Hernández demands to know where his outfit falls on the “snot” scale. “Hello, I’m Charli XCX and I will be the host and musical guest this week SNL” Charli initially says before Hernández asks, “Charli, do you like my outfit? Is it a snot?”

“There’s a fine line between brat and brong,” she replies. Hernández adds, “Oh, which side am I on?”

“That’s for the nation to decide,” Charli says with a grin.

The promo references the ‘Brat Summer’ phenomenon that took over the internet earlier this year following the release of the pop star’s sixth studio album. Brat in June. As for what “snot” means, the singer previously explained in a TikTok clip, “You’re like that girl who’s a little messy and likes to party and maybe says stupid things sometimes.” Who feels like himself, but might also be having a breakdown. But it’s very honest, very blunt. A bit volatile. For example, does stupid things. But it’s nonsense. You’re a brat. That sucks.”

This wasn’t the first time either SNL has called the phenomenon “snot”. Earlier in the sketch comedy show’s 50th season, cast member Bowen Yang cosplayed the “360” singer for a mock talk show skit called The talk show with Charli XCX.

After the show, Charli praised Yang’s impression of her, telling Howard Stern on his SiriusXM channel, “I love Bowen and I honestly think he did a great job.” I was actually very impressed with the hair texture. I thought it was a very good wig. It was good. It was cool.”

Although it is Charli’s first time hosting SNLshe was previously the musical guest in 2014 and 2022.
