“#Jack White Replaces Morgan Wallen as SNL Musical Guest”
Jack White is set to perform on Saturday Night Live this weekend (October 10), stepping in for Morgan Wallen. Wallen was ousted from the show, he said, due to “COVID protocols” after recent video surfaced of him partying without a mask. Bill Burr will host. White’s performance follows the announcement this week of the White Stripes’ first official greatest hits collection, out December 4.
In an Instagram video on Wednesday night, Wallen said, “I respect the show’s decision because I know I put them in jeopardy, and I take ownership for this. I’d like to apologize to SNL, to my fans, to my team for bringing me these opportunities, and I let them down. And on a more personal note, I think I have some growing up to do.”
In a promo for the episode, Burr alluded to Wallen being pulled from the show. “Hey Kenan, maybe they’ll let me do my music too,” he joked.
