The NBC show said today that Baldwin will host the Feb. 11 show. Baldwin, who has been portraying Trump on a semi-regular basis this season, has hosted the venerable comedy show more times than any other person.
SNL said that actress Kristen Stewart will debut as a host on the Feb. 4 show.
Alessia Cara will be the musical guest on Stewart’s show, with Ed Sheeran performing on Baldwin’s show.
