Morgan Wallen Returns to SNL as Musical Guest — 5 Years After His Controversial 2020 Debut: Watch

Morgan Wallen brought a country flair to the Studio 8H stage!

The singer, 31, appeared as the musical guest on the March 29 episode of Saturday Night Live, which saw Mikey Madison make her hosting debut, weeks after she won the Best Actress award for her role in Anora at the 2025 Oscars.

During his first performance, Wallen sang “I’m the Problem” from his soon-to-be-released album of the same name.

Later in the show, the star returned to the stage to perform “Just in Case,” also from his upcoming LP.

Wallen’s most recent appearance on SNL came five years after his controversial debut on the late-night comedy sketch series in 2020.

The country crooner last appeared on the show that December, but he was supposed to perform two months prior in late 2019.

Wallen was disinvited from his original musical guest gig after he was photographed kissing multiple college women and partying maskless in Alabama, breaking COVID-19 protocols in place at the time.

During his inaugural SNL appearance, Wallen first performed “7 Summers,” before he later returned to the stage to sing “Still Goin’ Down.” He also appeared in a sketch poking fun at the controversy surrounding him at the time, in which he got warnings from future versions of himself.

Wallen announced earlier this year that he will release his fourth studio album. The LP follows his third record, One Thing at a Time, which topped the Billboard 200 albums chart for 19 non-consecutive weeks and spawned seven No. 1 country singles.

He will also embark on the I’m the Problem Tour, which will be made up of 19 stadium shows in 10 U.S. cities, including Houston, Miami Gardens, Fla., Glendale, Ariz., Seattle, Santa Clara, Calif., Cleveland, Foxborough, Mass., plus Toronto and Edmonton in Canada.
