Don’t worry Bill Burr, you won’t have to doing the singing tomorrow. “SNL” has named Jack White as the replacement for Burr’s original musical guest, Morgan Wallen.Wallen was cut from the program after being caught on social media amid the coronavirus pandemic. He says he is not positive for COVID-19.Saturday will mark White’s third solo appearance as musical guest and fourth overall. “The White Stripes Greatest Hits” collection will be released on Dec. 4.Also Read:“I was getting ready for ‘SNL’ this Saturday, and I got a call from the show that I will no longer be able to play, and that’s because of COVID protocols, which I understand,” Morgan Wallen Wednesday on his Instagram. In recent days, videos on TikToks showed Wallen in Alabama without a mask at a crowded bar and a house party. “I’m not positive for COVID, but my actions from this past weekend were pretty short-sighted, and have obviously affected my long-term goals and my dreams. I respect the show’s decision, because I know that I put them in jeopardy.”“And on a more personal note, I think I have some growing up to do,” Wallen continued. “I wish I could have made country music and my fans proud this Saturday, but I respect the decision once again.” He added that “SNL” boss Lorne Michaels said they would “find another time to make this up.”“Saturday Night Live” is produced in association with Broadway Video. The creator and executive producer is Lorne Michaels.“SNL” debuted last Saturday to the show’s best ratings in four years. The late-night sketch comedy returned to its 30 Rockefeller Plaza studio, complete with a mask-wearing (and compensated) audience. The plan is to do four more shows in a row, leading up to the Nov. 3 presidential election.From Eddie Murphy’s return to quarantined episodes, 45th edition of late night sketch series won’t be forgottenThe 45th season of "Saturday Night Live" was a landmark achievement in more ways than one. Not only did the long-running sketch series see the long-awaited return of Eddie Murphy to Studio 8H, but the show had to contend with the coronavirus pandemic that forced the cast out of 30 Rock and into their homes. Luckily for us, that did not stop the show from producing new episodes.
