Quickly on his way to becoming the next ‘It’ boy of Hollywood, the Egyptian actor, comedian, and former Esquire ME coverstar, Ramy Youssef will host Saturday Night Live on March 30, 2024, with musical guest, Travis Scott.

Youssef joins some of the most iconic names of all time in hosting the long running Saturday Night Live, and for a comedian, SNL is often considered the pinnacle of ha-ha. Having already been nominated for several Golden Globe awards, Youssef is quickly on route to becoming a household name not just in his native Middle East, but across the globe.

Unfortunately no current streaming/TV platform in the UAE/Mena region will be streaming SNL live, but with the help of a VPN you can watch it on Peacock.


Last weekend, Youssef attended the 2024 Oscars alongside his Oscar nominated, and winning (Emma Stone for best actress, along with other categories) cast of Poor Things. On the red carpet, Youssef proudly donned a red Artists4Ceasefire pin, calling for a ceasefire between Israel and Palestine and their on-going conflict.
