Kanye West to Perform on the Season 38 Finale of SNL

SNL confirmed via Twitter today that Kanye West will indeed be the headlining musical guest for the finale of the 38th season of the NBC late-night sketch comedy show. Long rumored, West’s appearance will coincide with Ben Affleck’s fifth appearance as guest host. Could ‘Ye’s performance mark yet another debut of brand new material in a public forum – much like “Power” at the 2010 BET Awards and “Runaway” at 2010’s MTV Video Music Awards? Be sure to tune in on May 18 to find out.
