00:00When you get to hell,
00:02tell them Rosen of Sancho.
00:06He got me!
00:07Connor's story is already knocking him dead
00:09on Saturday Night Live.
00:10There hasn't been this much buzz leading up to an SNL host
00:13in a long time.
00:14The heated rivalry hunk is kicking off
00:16a hot streak of handsomeness.
00:18March 7th, Ryan Gosling hosts, and March 14th, Harry Styles
00:22pulls double duty as host and musical guest.
00:25Wow, you guys, I literally cannot believe I'm here.
00:27I know, you blew up so fast.
00:29And it all starts with Connor on Saturday, February 28th.
00:33One sketch titled Accent Duel was apparently so perfect,
00:36no notes, that SNL dropped it ahead of time.
00:39In just one day, the hilarious skit
00:41has nearly a million views on YouTube,
00:43nearly a million likes on Instagram,
00:45and Pedro Pascal commented, high five emoji, yes.
00:50Cast member James Austin Johnson, who famously plays Trump,
00:53was a little miffed when Pop Crave failed to mention
00:56he was in the duel too.
00:57Then on Seth Meyers, three-time SNL host and meme king Jon Hamm,
01:02also gushed about running into Connor at 30 Rock.
01:05That looks like a still from Heated Rivalry.
01:07It does look like a still from Heated Rivalry, yeah.
01:09I just went over to your neighbors and saw Connor.
01:13Oh, that's right.
01:13Connor's hosting SNL.
01:14Oh, right, yeah.
01:15Doing great.
01:16Yeah.
01:17Looking great.
01:18Yeah.
01:19Yeah.
01:19Smells nice.
01:20Yeah.
01:20Smells nice.
01:21We want details, Jon.
01:23I'm imagining it's a mix of hockey locker room and Abercrombie
01:27Woods cologne.
01:28Clearly, everyone is swooning over Connor's story.
01:31The 26-year-old breakout star chatted with a slew of outlets
01:34at Studio 8H.
01:36Here he is with Access Hollywood.
01:38Live from New York.
01:39It's Saturday night.
01:40Are we feeling excited?
01:41Nervous?
01:42What's the overall feeling?
01:43Yeah.
01:43I think this is the coolest thing I've ever done in my entire life.
01:48Literally.
01:49Entertainment Tonight weirdly asked him about his comedy training as a clown.
01:53I actually think it's kind of, it makes it a little bit more difficult in a weird way
01:58because, I mean, you know, there's certain things that I would do in clown performances
02:03that, you know, I can't really do in sketch.
02:06What in the Pennywise from IT are we talking about, people?
02:09Connor also revealed to NBC New York his favorite SNL sketch of all time, Maya Rudolph
02:15singing the national anthem.
02:17Have you seen that one where she literally just, like, she just takes the national anthem
02:21and just sings it completely wrong, and she's like...
02:30Absolutely genius.
02:31That was from season 32, way back in 2006, and hopefully it's an appetizer of what's
02:37to come when Connor takes the stage this weekend.
02:39I'll be looking for you at the After After Party, Connor.
