Despite only having guested on the show twice before, Adele's music has influenced some of SNL's more popular sketches.
The Nov. 12, 2011 episode used her song "Someone Like You" in an Emma Stone sketch that quickly became a meme for its way too relatable visual of Stone crying into a tub of ice cream. Several cast members also impersonated the British singer in a 2015 Thanksgiving sketch that used the song, "Hello."
Given her history on the show (and her golden pipes), it's possible that Adele may grace the SNL stage with singing at some point in her episode. Hosting the show will also certainly fuel speculation that her long-awaited third album may be just around the corner.
Fans will have to tune in to Saturday Night Liveon Oct. 24 to find out.
