Kanye West Is Reportedly "Coaching" Kim Kardashian On How To Host SNL Ahead Of Her Appearance This Weekend
Source - Kim Kardashian may be receiving some help from Kanye West as she prepares to host "Saturday Night Live" this weekend.
The 47th season of NBC's Saturday Night Live is officially underway. Per Page Six's sources, Kim has reportedly not been confident about her forthcoming hosting gig since Will & Grace actress Debra Messing publicly questioned why SNL would give Kardashian the chance to host an episode when there are plenty of actors and musicians who could have used the opportunity to promote their current projects. Apparently, in an effort to keep her nerves in check, Kim has reportedly started getting behind-the-scenes assistance from Kanye West.
"Kim is nervous about hosting 'SNL,' its a big challenge but she is determined to be a success," an unnamed source attests. "Kanye is quietly advising her on her performance, her opening monologue, even her costumes for the show."
Be on the lookout for Kim Kardashian and Halsey's SNL episode, which is set to air at this Saturday at 11:30 p.m. EST.

First of all, let me just say that Debra Messing can kick rocks. Will and Grace ended in 2006, hun, no one under the age of thirty knows who you are. Kim Kardashian on the other hand is the most famous woman on earth, that's why she's hosting the show. They want someone who will bring ratings which is exactly what she's going to do. People are going to hate watch but in the words of both SNL execs and Wallo267, "haters is your marketing team." That said, I love the fact that Kanye is giving her advice about being on SNL. He's made seven appearances so I'm sure he knows the workflow, but he's also arguably the most serious person on earth. So maybe it's just logistical advice. More of a "here's what to expect" rather than a "here's how to be funny." Regardless, this weekend's episode should do significantly better than last weeks season opener, which was down thirty-five percent from the year before. Time will tell. Now take it away, K!
