Only a week after announcing that U2 will be the musical guest for the show's 35th season premiere featuring Megan Fox as host on Sept. 26, NBC has revealed the names of three more hosts and their musical guests.
On Oct. 3, "The Proposal" star Ryan Reynolds will take to the stage and will hopefully dazzle us with some "Van Wilder" references. Joining him is musical guest Lady Gaga. Any bets on her singing "Poker Face"?
The following week will feature Drew Barrymore as host and Regina Spektor bringing the tunes. Barrymore makes her directorial feature debut with "Whip It," which also features "SNL's" Kristen Wiig. Spector's range of styles and vocal creativity that made "far" a fan and critical darling is a nice pairing with Barrymore's quirky charisma.
Finally, on Oct. 17, "300" star Gerard Butler will "dine in hell"... oh wait, okay he'll be very congenial and host "SNL" alongside his musical guest, she with the hips that don't prevaricate, Shakira. Her next album drops on Oct. 13. Butler next stars in "Law Abiding Citizen" and lends his voice to the upcoming "How to Train Your Dragon."
How do you like "SNL's" lineup so far? Do you think this season will actually be funny?

Yay Megan and Drew hosting and U2, GaGa and Shakira performing! I hope that maybe Beyonce, Britney, Taylor, Carrie, Leona, Janet, Mary, Usher, Alicia and Rihanna all consider performing this season but if any of these decide to perform I will be happy to watch.
