Despite joking during her opening monologue she’d focus on acting, the first-time host still found moments to break into song. Adele hosted Saturday Night Live for the first time, with H.E.R. serving as the musical guest, Hollywood Reporter reports.
In her monologue, the singer addressed the fact that she isn’t serving as the musical guest herself, joking that she would be too nervous to do both and would “rather put on some wigs, have a glass of wine or six and just see what happens!” She added that she tends to curse when she’s nervous, with Kenan Thompson bringing out her swear jar as proof.
Despite her opening remarks that she’d stick to acting during her inaugural hosting gig, Adele still found opportunities to sing. In a spoof of The Bachelor, Adele played herself and burst into several of her hits depending on the situation — from “Someone Like You” when Beck Bennett’s bachelor gave a rose to another girl to “Hello” when he went on a solo date with someone else. After Adele was eliminated, she returned to the Bachelor set to finish “Someone Like You.”
“Catch me next week on Love Island!” Adele said with a smirk at the end of her performance.
