Kim Kardashian is one of the celebrities that has been tapped to host an episode of 'Saturday Night Live,' the longest-running sketch comedy show on television. Owen Wilson hosted the inaugural show, which aired on October 2, 2021, with musical guest Kacey Musgraves.
The second episode, which will premiere on October 9th, 2021, will be hosted by Kim Kardashian and will include musical guest Halsey. With this, Kim will make her small-screen hosting debut, and she is both excited and worried about hosting, and she has found a shoulder to depend on in her ex-husband Kanye West.
Kanye West, a Grammy winner, has featured as a musical guest on NBC's famed late-night sketch comedy show seven times and appears to be an acceptable person to seek advice from. Despite the fact that the rapper has never hosted the show, he has vital ideas to impart to his ex-wife.

"Kim has consulted with Kanye and requested comments," according to sources. In terms of creativity and art, she values his opinion. They've discussed a few other possibilities, and he's been really encouraging. Kim Kardashian is reportedly taking her hosting role very seriously and putting her heart and soul into it. "She is completely focused on the task at hand and wants it to go well. She's clearly apprehensive and wants this gig to go well,” the story continued.
Despite filing for divorce in February, the pair has maintained contact, and Kim has stated that she cherishes Kanye's perspective and includes him in "many creative conversations' regarding her brands and business, as she has previously stated.
According to the insider, "She is aware that his intellect is brimming with brilliant ideas, and they enjoy working together. Kanye enjoys assisting others, and they bond over their creative discussions." These discussions included some gags that Kim hopes to tell on Saturday Night Live and that she wants Kanye to be aware of.
Kim Kardashian rushed to Instagram to express her feelings of 'pressure,' especially when 'Will & Grace' star Debra Messing questioned why she was hosting. "Why Kim Kardashian?" Debra wondered on Twitter. "I mean, I realize she's a cultural figure, but SNL usually has hosts who are performers promoting a film, TV show, or album release." The mother of four, entrepreneur, beauty mogul joked about her own trepidation on Twitter, she said, "OMFG no turning back now!!!! LOL I'm hosting SNL!!!!!!"
Kim is expected to start rehearsals for the show on Wednesday, and she was recently sighted at the Tuesday night host dinner with Lorne Michaels and the cast of Saturday Night Live.
Kimye, who are co-parenting their four children North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm, were seen leaving Nobu Malibu together and getting into a car with West driving and Kardashian in the passenger seat beside him. Tracy Romulus, who is also the CMO of Kim's apparel line SKIMS, and her husband Ray Romulus were also in attendance. According to sources, Kim and Kanye are attempting to ‘rebuild their relationship' amid speculations of reunion.
It's no surprise that the couple who had a perfect wedding adores each other and has always been by their side. They are not, however, back together.
Since it is supposed to be near to the rapper's heart, Kanye's album 'Donda' has gotten a lot of attention from the public. Kanye reportedly wept onstage at his first event while singing about losing his family in the song 'Love Unconditionally.'
"Time and space is a luxury / But you came here to demonstrate that you're still in love with me," Kanye rapped during the second event, which many took to mean that he was implying that Kim still had feelings for him.
The final event, which was a huge success since Kim Kardashian appeared on stage dressed in a Balenciaga couture wedding gown with a face-concealing veil and reenacted the wedding, gathered massive attention across the world. According to TMZ, Kim was happy to do it for Kanye and the event was so important for him. Kanye also helped the beauty mogul to rebrand the KKW beauty line, and now he’s happy to help her with her first-ever hosting gig.
