While it marks the first time for the ‘Juice’ songstress to host the long-running NBC comedy sketch, she previously appeared on the show as a musical guest.
AceShowbiz –Lizzo made her “Saturday Night Live” hosting debut in the April,16 episode of the long-running NBC comedy sketch. In her opening monologue, the “Truth Hurts” hitmaker addressed rumors suggesting that she’s pregnant with Chris Evans’ child.
“I read a lot online that I’m dating every little white boy in Hollywood. They think I’m collecting members of One Direction like infinity stones,” the 33-year-old quipped in her monologue. She was referring to “Avengers: Infinity War”.
“I even heard a rumor that I’m pregnant with Chris Evans’ baby. I have no idea where that one started,” Lizzo jokingly said. “It could be the TikTok where I said, I am pregnant with Chris Evans’ baby.’ It’s called manifesting, OK?”
Lizzo created the pregnancy rumors in the summer of 2021. At the time, the “Juice” singer blurted out the joke in response to a fan on TikTok, after previously revealing that she’d drunkenly slid into his direct messages on Twitter. “Lizzo baby … we know you’re [pregnant] and we know it’s Chris Evans’ now spill the tea,” the fan teased in their comment.
Lizzo then replied with a funny TikTok video. She said, “This is something I’ve been trying to keep really personal and private, just between me and the father of my child, but since we’re airing out all the rumors today,” with music from “Captain America” playing in the background. She then backed away from the camera and pushed out her belly, proclaiming as she rubbed her midsection, “I’ve been sucking in. We’re gonna have a little America!”
A few days later, Chris responded to Lizzo’s TikTok joke via direct message, “Hi! Just heard about our little bundle of joy my mother will be so happy lol. (Just promise me no gender reveal parties lol).” The “Good as Hell” femcee then made a video with the screenshot of the DM. In the caption, she wrote, “OMG YALL – HE SAW THE BABY BUMP! WE DID IT! NOW YALL GOTTA NAME LIL MERICA!!!!! WHAT YALL BOUTA NAME BY BABY ?!”
