SNL "scrambling" to find a new musical guest for Nov. 6 following Ed Sheeran's positive COVID test

Page Six

Sheeran revealed his positive test hours after Saturday Night Live announced he would be joining host Kieran Culkin on the Nov. 6 show. With Nov. 6 show 13 days away, the Britain-based Sheeran won't be allowed in the U.S., according to Page Six, which adds there's a slim chance he could perform remotely. “Ed is offering to perform live via video link, but this isn’t something SNL does,” says a source. “The show likes to have the performer in studio.”
