Morgan Wallen is making headlines after a sudden exit. The 31-year-old country star suddenly walked off stage in the middle of the end of Saturday Night Live on Saturday (March 29), in which he appeared as musical guest.

During the moment, he seemingly says something to host Mikey Madison before giving her a one-armed hug and heading for the exit as the rest of the cast stayed on stage, as is customary for every episode during the ending credits roll.

Viewers felt that something was off, especially as castmates Ego Nwodim and Kenan Thompson looked confused by his exit.

If you’ll recall, this isn’t the only controversy involving SNL and Morgan: in October 2020, he was disinvited as the musical guest after he was caught partying it up in Alabama with no mask amid COVID-19 protocols.
