Doja Cat stuns in SNL debut with ‘Aaahh Men!’ and ‘Gorgeous,’ shares update on 50-date ‘Tour Ma Vie’ world tour

Doja Cat made her highly anticipated musical guest debut on the Saturday Night Live (SNL) Season 51 premiere, delivering dynamic performances of two singles from her latest album, Vie. Introduced by the night’s host, Bad Bunny, the Grammy-winning artist opened her set with “Aaahh Men!”, a track produced by Jack Antonoff.

The stage design and costumes captured this nostalgic flair, featuring bright colors, 1980s-inspired lighting, and a live band of six musicians, including two bassists who amplified the track’s groove-heavy core.

For her second performance, Doja Cat delivered “Gorgeous,” another standout from Vie that showcases her sultry vocals and a smooth saxophone arrangement, reinforcing the album’s retro-pop sensibility.
