Harry Styles fans went wild on social media after the British singer and actor played double-duty as host and musical guest on Saturday Night Live.
During the Nov. 16 episode, Styles raised some eyebrows in his opening monologue by jokingly comparing former One Direction member Zayn Malik to Ringo Starr, a reference to Starr leaving the Beatles, just as Malik left 1D. Later in the show, Styles showed off his comical chops in a skits where he played a Chihuahua transforming into a man, and another sketch of him portraying a wild DJ at a funeral service.
As the musical guest, Styles performed new songs “Watermelon Sugar” and Lights Up” from his forthcoming sophomore album.
