Singer Rosalía served as the musical guest on Saturday Night Live, performing two tracks from her 2025 album 'Lux' and appearing in a sketch.

Rosalía appeared as the musical guest on the third episode of Saturday Night Live's 52nd season, hosted by comedian Shane Gillis. Performing on the late-night sketch show, the singer delivered theatrical renditions of two songs from her 2025 album 'Lux', alongside making a brief appearance in a comedy sketch.

Theatrical Performances From 'Lux'

For her first performance, Rosalía wore a black ballet tutu and remained almost entirely motionless while standing en pointe for the duration of the song 'Reliquia'. Towards the end of the track, a group of dancers joined her on stage, with the performance concluding in a burst of strobe lighting. Later in the episode, she returned to perform 'Magnolias', the closing track from 'Lux'. Dressed in white, she sang beneath an on-stage rain shower that began midway through the song, leaving her drenched by the end. In addition to her musical sets, Rosalía appeared in a thought bubble during a comedy sketch to encourage Gillis to leave his sick mother's bedside to attend a Jelly Roll concert at the Sphere in Las Vegas.

Background and Show History

The appearance marked Rosalía's third time on the show, having previously performed as Bad Bunny's guest in 2021 and making her solo debut in March 2022 to support her album 'Motomami'. Her latest performances followed the conclusion of her global 'Lux' tour, which included a show at London's O2 Arena.
