Mr. Jost is such a multi-national deconstructed character.

It took me a while to really appreciate Billie's music. I'm outside of her core demographic, as a soon to be 45 year old male Gen X-er, but the more I learn about Billie and her brother Finneas and their creative process, it's given me a lot of respect for the hard work they put in to make their art. It's astonishing to me just how much control over her own image she's had since the beginning. All the stuff Billie does in her music videos is her idea, and she for sure knows what she wants.

[@matthewhopkins5701]

Hello Terry but music is not like that these days :-/ Billie, unfortunately, is a literal industry plant- unlike any we’ve ever seen. If you do even a little bit of research on who she is or who her family is, you will quickly (and unfortunately) come to the conclusion that many modern day artists were predestined for fame and “talent”. And by talent, I mean collaboration with the right individuals who are already successful, and by fame, I mean handouts and pressures from her family. These are not the days of Simon & Garfunkel. Those who are truly talented get lost in the weeds of Disney child celebrities and daughters of famous music industry managers. Unfortunately, Terry, music is not what it used to be :(

[@miamaru414]

@@matthewhopkins5701 I’d disagree. She definitely had certain privileges but her success came organically after Ocean Eyes was a viral hit and her first EP was met with such good reception. I’m only 18 of course so I don’t know the old days you are referring to, but I love Simon and Garfunkel and Billie. I think we should be able to enjoy music from every era. Billie is very talented bottom line and deserves her success. Is there other people out there just as deserving not receiving the same attention? Absolutely. But that’s not her fault.

[@visionik]

@@matthewhopkins5701 Ha. FYI Paul Simon's father was a band leader and Art Garfunkels father was an actor. Sounds like music is exactly what it used to be.

i love her. she is growing into such a respectful beautiful woman.

[@Seemstazz]

Damn, for being so young, this woman is so damn talented! She's only going to get better and better. It's unbelievable how well she did from beginning to end. Her monologue, acting live, singing. I am seriously in awe of her and she seems like such a sweetheart!

3:26 I love Billie and you can tell that she didn't write this joke but not every host is a comedian/comedic actor so it would be unfair to criticize her for that. She did so well!

[@Ethan-dn1wc]

I think we all know who wrote that joke

[@fob1xxl]

I'm too old I think to really appreciate her as a singer. That's OK because every generation is like this. I think this young girl has a real future as an actress ! She has all the charm and grace that captivates an old guy like me. She has a great following already with the younger generation as a singer so she has REAL TALENT. I think her future is wide open in showbusiness. I truly enjoyed every minute she was on stage. Kudos to this young girl ! She has a BRIGHT FUTURE ahead of her ! 👍💙

I am 64 and love her music. Just like her SNL performance, she has range. Her last album had a nod or two to Frank Sinatra and Julie London.

[@horsehollerer]

No you’re not! I’m 51 and I accidentally went down the Billie rabbit hole about 3 years ago … she’s become one of my all time favorite artists. I’ve given up trying to explain it but there are millions of us oldies inspired by her!

[@fob1xxl]

@@horsehollerer FYI I'm 76 !

[@UkeCan1]

Young woman though. Would you call a nearly 20-year-old male a young boy?

[@raines.2002]

@@UkeCan1 I probably would call a male person under 25 or so a boy. From technical biological terms most of us are not fully finished becoming an adult until the 29's. This varies with the person of course. Because I am over 40 years older than a 20 year old I might refer to some one in their 20s as a girl or boy. I can't speak for anyone else, zi have no derogatory intent in this reference.

[@ninalovelace9874]

She looks so stunnning! So great how much she expirements with style!

[@akinyildizz]

She has serious action skills , great perf. during the whole show

[@ereh31]

the moment billie called her mom saying she's her mom's fav while maggie was wearing a blouse with fineass's face on it... comedy pure!!!

[@kristiannelson1851]

This was amazingly done!! Truth and comedy, incredibly delivered by Billie! Great monologue!

[@LL-tr5et]

she looks gorgeous in this one. the black hair really suits her

[@TheJosephTodd]

Billie absolutely crushed its as host tonight! I think we got a little first taste and foreshadowing of Billie the actress.

[@jake78441]

Billieeee a queen and a starrr!

[@potatotomato0606]

omg love how she giggled thru the whole thing

[@marckolsters2279]

Amazing. Billie. You are so warm and fuzzy. Thank you for hosting SNL!!!

[@colleenscott7769]

Her outfit is so cute! Her hair and outfits are 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@ariajoy4279]

She just has a natural charisma. I hope she hosts again sometime

[@marcissobadass]

Wow! Killed it with that wonderful loving spirit. Way to go Billie!

[@ericmartinez4053]

Goodness, how charming is this young woman? And what a talented comedian as well.

[@maribes0472]

i've been waitin for this one TURN IT UP

[@rgerber]

Hard to believe that she is an artist that creates 90% depressing, emotional, sad music. What an angel

[@ale68076]

Actually it’s not true almost all of her songs are about happiness , future, hope, love, or catchy badass songs Etc .. she just writes about her life and life is often very hard .. Adele last album 30 is about her divorce 😅 i cried so much for that album … but THIS IS REAL MUSIC.. music of the past was almost always like this “depressed” .. this is real and authentic music .. and the problem is the pop music of the last 20 years that has taken away that beauty, that deep emotional artistic key …. But she changed the game with her experimental pop music she is changing the game … I mean she is the 2nd best selling female artist in the world after Taylor Swift for 4 years .. even last year without new album, just 2 albums and 1 Ep, she surpassed Beyoncé, Adele Etc .. 😅 she is the 3rd most streaming artist in history! And she is the youngest! Her authentic music and her emotional voice is a revolution and we this world need more artists like her in pop music like in the past century … More deep, real, authentic and at the same time innovative, interesting music. After Amy Winehouse, Norah jones Etc in this century I found Billie … she is a gem in that and this world!

that was really smooth, the transitions and the loop around were def well thought out
