According to sources, Kanye West has been quietly providing guidance and advice to Kim Kardashian for her upcoming appearance on SNL. Despite never having hosted the show himself, Kanye has made numerous musical guest appearances, including one in 2018 where he caused controversy by wearing a Make America Great Again hat and expressing support for Donald Trump. Although Kim may be feeling a bit nervous, she is reportedly thrilled about the opportunity to showcase her talents on stage. An insider says that she sees it as a significant challenge but is determined to succeed.

Out West: Guest: Though Kanye's never hosted SNL he has appeared on the show seven times as a musical guest, last seen in 2018 during his MAGA phase

Out in the Wild West: A guest who goes by the name Kanye West has graced the stage of Saturday Night Live (SNL) multiple times as a musical performer. His latest appearance took place in 2018, during a phase when he famously sported a “MAGA” hat.

Meanwhile, Kim Kardashian West, the notable spouse of Kanye, was spotted heading towards the NBC studios not only on Tuesday but also on Wednesday. Interestingly, she was seen adorning a stylish black attire from Balenciaga, reminiscent of her fashion choices from bygone days.

Reports suggest that Kim indulged in a casual dinner with the head-honcho of SNL, none other than Lorne Michaels, on Tuesday night. Perhaps they were discussing important matters related to the much-anticipated gig that Kim is set to undertake on October 9th.

Feeling the weight of expectations, Kim recently voiced her sentiments about the imminent performance on her social media platform. In a video showcasing a lovely floral arrangement spelling out the initials “SNL,” gifted by her friend and designer Jeff Leatham, Kim expressed her gratitude and excitement. She admitted, “Thanks so much for sending me these flowers. That is so amazing and I absolutely love them.” However, she couldn’t help but acknowledge the pressure that comes with this opportunity.

The stage is set, and the spotlight awaits Kim Kardashian West as she gears up for her SNL appearance. Excitement lingers in the air as fans eagerly anticipate what she has in store for us on that memorable evening.

Collab: West has been integral to Kim's styling through the years, and it was previously reported the pair would continue to work together on creative projects despite ending their marriage

Collaboration: Throughout the years, West has played a significant role in shaping Kim’s sense of style. Despite their divorce, it was previously stated that the duo would continue to collaborate on creative endeavors.

While there is excitement surrounding the reality star’s upcoming debut on SNL, Debra Messing raised a question about why Kim was chosen to host the iconic show.

The star of Will & Grace took to Twitter to ask her followers if she was overlooking something. While acknowledging Kim as a “cultural icon,” she pointed out that SNL typically opts for hosts who are performers and are present to promote their films, TV shows, or album releases.

Messing’s tweet read, “Why Kim Kardashian? I mean, I know she is a cultural icon, but SNL has hosts, generally, who are performers who are there to promote a film, TV show, or album launch. Am I missing something?”

SNL is banking on Kardashian’s popularity to attract a substantial audience, particularly after a somewhat turbulent beginning to season 47.

It's happening! Last week Kim said she was feeling the 'pressure' ahead of her October 9th gig while showing off a floral arrangement that read 'SNL' from friend and designer Jeff Leatham

Exciting news is on the horizon! Just recently, Kim expressed her anxiety before her upcoming show on October 9th, mentioning the pressure she was experiencing. She even received a stunning floral arrangement from her friend and designer Jeff Leatham, which spelled out ‘SNL.’ The latest episode of Saturday Night Live, according to Nielsen data acquired by The Wrap, achieved a household rating of 3.5 over the past weekend. Although these numbers are comparable to the final two episodes of Season 46, they experienced a 35% decline compared to the Season 46 debut. It’s worth noting that the show tends to experience a decrease in viewership during post-election years, which may explain the decline. Back in August, reports emerged that Kim and her momager Kris Jenner met up with Lorne Michaels at the Polo Lounge in the Beverly Hills Hotel. Speculations arose regarding hosting opportunities for Kim on SNL. An insider informed KNEWZ that Michaels was hoping to have Kardashian as the host for the premiere. However, a source claimed at the time to The Hollywood Reporter that the meeting between Kris and Kim was merely a casual catch-up, unrelated to any specific project.

Hehe: Kim poked fun at herself while announcing the news on social media, writing 'No turning back now!!!! LOL'

Ha ha: Kim had a light-hearted moment as she shared the news on social media, jokingly saying ‘There’s no turning back now!!!! LOL’. This will be a significant milestone for her as she becomes the first Kardashian to host a show, although her ex-husband Kanye West made a controversial appearance back in 2018 during his pro-Trump phase. On a different note, Kim recently made her mark on the big screen as she voiced the character Dolores the poodle in the highly-anticipated PAW Patrol: The Movie. While her family’s reality show has had a successful run of 20 seasons, Kim’s acting credits are not as extensive. She has previously appeared in movies such as Disaster Movie (2008), Deep in the Valley (2009), and Temptation: Confessions of a Marriage Counselor (2013). Don’t forget to catch Kim Kardashian’s episode of Saturday Night Live with musical guest Halsey on October 9th, airing at 8:30 PM PST/11:30 PM EST on NBC.
