Harry Styles Returns to Saturday Night Live
Harry Styles is once again gracing the stage of Saturday Night Live!
Reflecting on Time Off
The “Watermelon Sugar” artist shared insights during his monologue as host, reflecting on his break from music following the completion of his Love On Tour in 2023. He noted that this hiatus allowed him to contemplate his life.
Musical Insights and Humor
Styles remarked, “After finishing my last tour in 2023, I took a significant break. I realized I had dedicated half my life to music, touring, and creating songs, many of which people think are about sex, but they’re really about my fondness for fruit.” He humorously added, “I enjoy both fruit and sex.”
Addressing Past Controversies
The singer also touched on previous allegations of queerbaiting tied to his fashion choices. He expressed, “There were times when people focused heavily on my attire and accused me of queerbaiting… But maybe you don’t understand every aspect of my personality, dad?”
New Music Announcement
Styles revealed his new album, Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally. He humorously shared how the title was inspired by a ChatGPT prompt asking for the most Italian phrase, resulting in the album’s name. He quipped about the joys of kissing, especially if done well.
SNL Sketch Highlights
During the episode, Ben Marshall joined Styles on stage for a comedic moment. Styles concluded their exchange with a humorous nod to queerbaiting. In the cold open, James Austin Johnson impersonating Donald Trump made jokes about gas prices and referenced Styles’ fans.

Disco, Occasionally, was released on March 6, marking his return to SNL for the first time since November 16, 2019.
