By Sam Barron From Daily Voice

"Saturday Night Live" is ending the year with a bang.

The venerable sketch comedy show, now in its 51st season, announced its host/musical guests for its final three shows of 2025.

Melissa McCarthy will be making her sixth appearance as host on Saturday, Dec. 6, with musical guest Dijon. McCarthy is a member of the show's famed "Five-Timers Club" and is most remembered for her iconic impression of former White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer.

McCarthy last hosted in 2017 while Dijon is making his first appearance on the show.

On Saturday, Dec. 13, Josh O'Connor will be making his "SNL" hosting debut with musical guest Lily Allen. O'Connor has four films released this year, including the upcoming "Wake Up Dead Man," the third film in the "Knives Out" series.

Allen, whose new album dishes on her contentious divorce from actor David Harbour, will be making her second appearance as musical guest and her first since 2007.

Ariana Grande is hosting the Christmas show on Saturday, Dec. 20, promoting "Wicked: For Good." Grande, who has hosted the show last year, helped introduce memorable recurring character Domingo.

Grande also hosted in 2016.

Cher will be the musical guest, her first time performing on "SNL" since 1987, though she made an appearance at the "Saturday Night Live: 50th Anniversary Special."
