Kid Cudi Seemingly Pays Tribute to Kurt Cobain While Wearing Floral-Print Dress on 'SNL' - Watch

Kid Cudi is taking over Saturday Night Live!

The 37-year-old rapper appeared on the NBC sketch comedy series as the musical guest on Saturday (April 10) in New York City.

For his first performance, Kid performed his hit song “Tequila Shots,” while wearing a green cardigan and a T-shirt that had a photo of the late SNL cast member Chris Farley on it.

Later in the evening, Kid put on a floral-print dress for a performance of his song “Sad People.” He ended the performance with a smile and a curtsy.

Fans were quick to point out on Twitter Kid was seemingly paying homage to the late Kurt Cobain with his outfit choices. Kurt famously wore the green cardigan and a floral-print dress during some of his performances back in the ’90s.

Kid‘s appearance on SNL comes several days after the anniversary of Kurt‘s death. He died by suicide back on April 5, 1994 at 27-years-old.

Earlier in the night, Kid appeared in an SNL sketch alongside one of his very famous friends!

Kid Cudi is reacting to one of his songs being used in a new TikTok trend.

Recently, TikTok users have started to incorporate the 37-year-old rapper’s song “Day ‘N’ Nite” into their posts.

In the new trend, users mouth the line “Now look at this” from Kid Cudi‘s song before cutting out the next line. Instead, the users then show some funny or weird video, while the rest of the song continues as an instrumental.

After catching wind of this new trend, Kid Cudi took to Twitter to react, and he’s not happy with it.

“I dont f–k w what they did to my song on tik tok takin out the lyrics,” Kid Cudi tweeted. “We live in a strange time. Im not flattered.”

One of Kid Cudi‘s fans tweeted at him that the trend is “wack,” and he responded, adding, “Very.”

Kid Cudi then shared another tweet about the situation, writing, “I dont think im makin it ‘deep’ by tweetin how I feel. Now if I was ranting thats another thing. Nothing wrong w me stating I dont approve, plus if u are such a fan, u know my lyrics are most important to me. Im passionate about my s–t so idc who has a problem w that.”

Ariana Grande, Timothee Chalamet and Leonardo DiCaprio are just some of the many stars boarding Don’t Look Up!

Meryl Streep, Cate Blanchett, Jonah Hill, Himesh Patel, Kid Cudi, Matthew Perry and Tomer Sisley are also joining the cast, which also includes the previously announced Rob Morgan.

Adam will write, direct and co-produce.

The comedy is about “two scientists who discover that a meteor will strike the Earth in six months. They go on a media tour trying to warn the world but find an unreceptive and unbelieving populace.”

“She’s what folks in the 17th century used to call ‘a dynamite act.’ And the fact that Netflix sees this movie as a worldwide comedy sets the bar high for me and my team in an exciting and motivating way,” said Adam in a previous statement about booking Jennifer Lawrence.

According to the report, Leonardo had been weighing the project for some time, considering his schedule in filming Martin Scorsese‘s Killers of the Flower Moon.

A theatrical release “seems very likely,” but Deadline reports that this film is “a sign of things to come as it is unclear when theaters will fully reopen as more and more movies are either pushing their release dates or move from a studio to a streamer.”

Ariana Grande also just made an unexpected announcement!
