Jorja Smith to Perform on SNL UK with Jack Whitehall: A British Soul Star Takes the Stage

SNL UK, the British version of the iconic Saturday Night Live, is generating significant buzz following its March launch. The show has announced that British soul sensation Jorja Smith will be its next musical guest, set to perform on April eleventh alongside host Jack Whitehall. Smith, known for her 2018 debut album Lost and Found and her hit single Falling or Flying, is poised to bring her powerful vocals and captivating stage presence to the show.

Whitehall, a seasoned comedian and host, brings his comedic prowess from shows like Bad Education and Travels with My Father. He has also hosted the Brit Awards multiple times, including this years event in Manchester. The shows format mirrors the US version, featuring monologues, sketches, live music, and a British take on the Weekend Update segment.

Critics have given mixed reviews to the shows debut, but Sky has extended the first season from six to eight episodes, indicating a positive response. The cast, which includes fresh talent like Hammed Animashaun and Emma Sidi, is keeping sketches sharp and local. The show will air on Sky One at ten PM Greenwich Mean Time this weekend, and will be available the next day on Peacock for viewers in the US.
