Timothée Chalamet dazzled the audience on 'Saturday Night Live' as he served a double duty as a host and musical guest, bringing laughter during monologue and showing off his vocal chops for his performances.

AceShowbiz - Timothee Chalamet proved his versatility as an entertainer during his third hosting gig on "Saturday Night Live". The Oscar-nominated actor, celebrated for his recent portrayal of Bob Dylan in the biopic "A Complete Unknown", pulled double-duty as both the host and musical guest, bringing his signature charm and wit to the stage.

Chalamet's opening monologue was a comedic delight, full of self-deprecating humor. He joked about his history of losing at award shows, saying, "It's such a great experience, but I just keep losing, and each time it gets harder to pretend it doesn't sting."

A compilation video of his reactions to losing out to Gary Oldman and Mahershala Ali added to the humor, along with a mock acceptance speech scenario where he lost yet again - to "SNL" cast member Kenan Thompson.

In addition to joking about his award show defeats, Chalamet poked fun at his often-criticized facial hair. "This is my third time hosting Saturday Night Live, but the first time hosting it with a little stache and a little goatee," he quipped, before adding with a smirk, "Yeah. That's 37 hairs right there."

The night also showcased Chalamet's musical prowess. Performing three of Bob Dylan's songs - "Outlaw Blues", "Three Angels", and "Tomorrow Is a Long Time" - he was accompanied by musician James Blake on the piano.

Chalamet teased the audience before his performance, saying, "[SNL is] either really nice for letting me do this or incredibly mean and this is all a big prank." Introduced by Adam Sandler, Chalamet delivered passionate renditions illustrating his deep connection to Dylan's music, which he described as a "guiding light."

Chalamet's appearance on "SNL" comes on the heels of his Oscar nomination for Best Actor for his role in "A Complete Unknown". His girlfriend, Kylie Jenner, who was notably absent from the audience, has been a supportive presence at various events.

The duo, first romantically linked in 2023, have been public about their relationship, often spotted together at high-profile events although they have yet to make an official red carpet appearance as a couple.

Chalamet's humorous and heartfelt performance on "SNL" not only won over the audience but also solidified his place as a multitalented star capable of captivating fans both on-screen and on stage. As fans eagerly await the awards season, Chalamet's blend of humor and talent continues to leave a lasting impression.
