Taylor Swift and Bill Hader Confront Kanye-Related Expectations in New SNL Clip

Anticipation has been mounting about whether Taylor Swift will take aim at Kanye West when she hosts Saturday Night Livethis week. But it's SNL cast member Bill Hader who gets in the first jab in a promo clip.

Adding to the done-to-death genre of jokes zinging West, Hader pretends to take a phone call from the mic — and scene — stealer himself. "Oops, Kanye West just called," Hader tells Swift. "He thinks Beyoncé should host."
