SNL‘s doors are open to Morgan Wallen whenever, should there be a next time. The network has clarified any misconception surrounding the singer’s abrupt exit on stage on Saturday. Producers explained that Wallen is welcome to appear on the show anytime, and zero grudges are held. NBC emphasized that his sudden exit during credits was nothing but an awkward moment. The producers also explained that no bad jokes or cast members were responsible for the quick exit.
As a matter of fact, Wallen had been on the set of Saturday Night Live since Thursday. The producers also confirmed he was familiar with all the jokes for the show. He even knew everything about Colin Jost and Michael Che’s segment on Weekend Update. TMZ sources acknowledged that Wallen attended both the dress rehearsal and the live show on Saturday. He enjoyed a harmonious atmosphere among the cast, with everyone enjoying themselves without signs of tension.
Wallen also departed in the same manner he arrived for rehearsals, believing it was the right approach. Fans on X also weighed in on the development. This fan declared Wallen guilt-free, noting, “Why all the hate for Morgan Wallen? He literally did nothing wrong.” Another user doubts if Wallen cares about SNL’s woke, performative nonsense. This X subscriber proclaimed that the SNL ending with the cast having fake convos is “cringe.” A fourth fan suggested that Wallen “don’t give a sh-t what NBC thinks.”
Morgan Wallen’s Interesting Caption Impressed the Producers
Wallen has appeared on SNL before and seemed familiar with the show despite past COVID-related controversies. After his performance, he did not express offense and chose to stay. During the ending credits, Wallen did not interact with the guest host and cast, which is typically expected. This unusual behavior caught the attention of many viewers, who felt that it seemed he was eager to leave.
He quickly made his way off stage and later shared an Instagram story featuring a private jet. He added a now trending caption, “Get me to God’s country,” to the post. The phrase sparked some humor among the show’s writers, who have picked interest in Wallen’s one-liner. Despite the unusual exit, NBC is interested in having the country singer back. It remains to be seen if he will make a third appearance in the future.
Morgan Wallen Is Currently on a Two-Year Probation for an Incident Last Year
Last year, We reported that Wallen faced legal consequences following an incident in Nashville. The musician threw a chair off a bar roof, narrowly missing pedestrians below. Following the incident, the country music star pleaded guilty and learned his sentence. Wallen was sentenced to spend seven days at a DUI education center instead of serving jail time. Additionally, Wallen was placed on probation for two years and was required to pay a $350 fine with court fees.
According to his attorney, Wallen cooperated throughout the legal process and regretted the incident. The singer aimed to use his music and charity work for positive change. Wallen pleaded guilty and can have the charges dismissed from his record if he completes probation. He faced three counts of reckless endangerment for the April 7, 2024 incident.
Looks like Morgan Wallen can sleep with his two eyes closed since his brief stunt.
