With her new album, The Pinkprint, out on December 15, Nicki Minaj is making her return to Saturday Night Live on December 6 as the episode's musical guest. This will mark Nicki's second appearance as the musical guest on the show, while James Franco will be making his third appearance as a host on the show. If you remember, Nicki's last appearance on the program brought on one of the more memorable sketches in recent memory, with Lonely Island calling on Nicki for a feature on their hilarious song, "The Creep."
Along with this news, the network announced that Charli XCX and One Direction will also be making appearances as musical guests on the show in December. As for Nicki, she will also be performing her new single, "Bed of Lies," this Sunday at the American Music Awards. Earlier this week, Nicki was featured on the cover of our December/January issue, which you can read the cover story for here.
