TV Watch Phoebe Waller-Bridge prepare to host SNL whilst holding three Emmys By Dan Snierson Dan Snierson Dan Snierson is a former senior writer at Entertainment Weekly. He left EW in 2023. EW's editorial guidelines Published on October 2, 2019 01:47PM EDT Phoebe Waller-Bridge had a quite a night two Sundays ago. The Fleabag creator/star and critical darling who also brought you Killing Eve won three Emmys, becoming the surprise sensation of the ceremony. The afterglow from that triple play continues to light the way for Waller-Bridge, who will next be seen hosting this week’s edition of Saturday Night Live, with musical guest Taylor Swift. In a new promo for her hosting stint, Waller-Bridge seems to be having an awfully hard time letting go of the night both metaphorically and quite literally, as she carries her trio of statues into all discussions with SNL cast members Beck Bennett, Chris Redd, and Chloe Fineman. With hands full of shiny statues, who has the ability to self-hydrate? Check out the minute-long bit above. Season 45 of NBC’s late-night sketch series kicked off on Sept. 28, with host Woody Harrelson and dancing-on-the-ceiling musical guest Billie Eilish.
