Miley Cyrus, Lady Gaga, and Cher were among a truly epic lineup of musicians that  came together to celebrate Saturday Night Live’s 50th birthday in a big way on Friday.

On Friday, the group of superstars, as well as Dave Grohl, Ms. Lauryn Hill, Snoop Dogg, St. Vincent and more, took to the iconic stage inside Studio 8H to perform for an A-list crowd that included Pete Davidson, Molly Shannon, Tina Fey, Tracy Morgan and Will Ferrell.

As Cyrus, 32, sang her hit single, Flowers, which won Record of the Year at the 2024 Grammy Awards, she looked into the audience and gave a few shout-outs to some familiar faces. 

After belting out the chorus, she crouched down on stage and exclaimed: ‘I love you Paul Rudd!’

As the cameras panned to Rudd, 55, he looked flattered and blew her a kiss. 

The Disney Channel alum went on to look into the crowd, before playfully calling out to her ‘buddy’ Adam Sandler and rapper, Jelly Roll.

Sandler, 58, who was dancing next to his wife Jackie, 50, smiled as he stood up and enthusiastically clapped along during Cyrus’ performance. 

Anya Taylor-Joy and Pedro Pascal were also seen singing along and busting a move to the undeniably catchy tune.  

Scarlett Johansson also looked blown away by Cyrus as she watched from her seat, next to husband Colin Jost, and shimmed. 

After concluding her song, the Hannah Montana took a bow and gushed: ‘I love you, [SNL creator] Lorne Michaels!’

Cyrus also shared the stage with Brittany Howard as they covered Crazy Little Thing Called Love by Queen. 

Meanwhile, Lady Gaga kicked off her performance with her hit, Shallow, with Andy Samberg. 

After beginning the track on the piano, with Gaga playing the piano as Samberg botched the opening of the song, the 14-time Grammy winner stopped the actor from singing. 

‘Andy, Andy, I got to stop you,’ she told him. ‘It’s very bad.’

‘I could tell as soon as I started it was off,’ he agreed. ‘Maybe we skip it?’ 

She, then, suggests they could do something more in his ‘vocal range.’ 

They proceed to perform the 2009 SNL parody song, D**k in a Box, which spurs applause and cheers from the audience. 

Next, they segued into Motherlover, which Justin Timberlake and Samberg performed during his hosting gig on SNL back in 2009.
