Roddy Ricch was scheduled to take the stage as the musical guest of the first Saturday Night Live episode of 2022 this weekend (Jan. 15).
However, the rapper revealed that he was recently exposed to COVID-19, and had to drop out of his performance as a safety precaution. “Due to recent COVID-19 exposure on my team and to keep everyone safe I won’t be able to perform on SNL this weekend,” Roddy Ricch wrote on his Instagram Story on Wednesday (Jan. 12). “I’m working with the SNL team to lock in a new date though! LOVE [pray emoji] STAY SAFE.”
SNL was quick to announce Bleachers as the new musical guest for the episode hosted by West Side Story‘s Ariana DeBose.
