NBC’s SNL50: The Homecoming Concert was a star-studded event celebrating five decades of legendary comedy and music. The night was filled with unforgettable performances, nostalgic reunions, and hilarious moments that perfectly encapsulated the essence of Saturday Night Live. Here are five of the best highlights from the event:

1. Backstreet Boys Reignite Nostalgia

The Backstreet Boys were met with deafening screams as they took the stage to perform their 1999 hit “I Want It That Way.” The atmosphere was electric, with fans and celebrities alike singing along to every word.

Brian Littrell even walked into the audience, singing directly to comedian Jerry Seinfeld, who humorously replied, “Ain’t nothing but a mistake!” The performance was a perfect nostalgia trip for fans who grew up with the boy band’s music, and their infectious energy reminded everyone why they’re still a force in pop culture.

2. Nirvana Reunites with Post Malone on Vocals

In a jaw-dropping surprise, Nirvana’s surviving members—Dave Grohl, Krist Novoselic, and Pat Smear—took the stage with Post Malone stepping in for the late Kurt Cobain. Adam Sandler introduced the act, recalling the band’s explosive 1992 SNL performance before the curtain lifted to reveal the reunion.

The group delivered a raw and powerful rendition of “Smells Like Teen Spirit,” sending shockwaves through the audience. Fans headbanged, threw up devil horns, and even started light moshing in the front rows.

3. Cher’s Dazzling “If I Could Turn Back Time” Performance

Maya Rudolph and Fred Armisen, reprising their roles as Beyoncé and Prince, introduced none other than Cher—proving that only true icons could introduce another icon. The legendary singer delivered an electrifying performance of her 1989 hit, “If I Could Turn Back Time,” in a stunningly glittery ensemble.

Her powerhouse vocals and commanding stage presence proved that even at 78, she remains a force in the music industry. 

4. Ms. Lauryn Hill and Wyclef Jean’s Fugees Reunion

One of the most nostalgic moments of the night was the surprise reunion of The Fugees’ Lauryn Hill and Wyclef Jean. Despite the cancellation of their 25th-anniversary tour, the duo came together for a special medley featuring “Lost Ones,” “911,” and the classic “Killing Me Softly.”

Their chemistry was undeniable, and the performance transported fans back to the golden era of ‘90s hip-hop and R&B. The emotional set was a standout, reminding everyone of The Fugees’ impact on music.

5. The Culps’ Unexpected Rap Medley

For anyone familiar with the musical sketch “The Culps,” Will Ferrell and Ana Gasteyer’s return to their eccentric characters was a comedic gem. Performing a medley that included some spicy pop hits and a hilarious rap sequence, they played with absurd humor, culminating in a hilarious attempt to settle the “rap beef” between Kendrick Lamar and Drake.
