As scared as she may be, this "full circle" appearance on "Saturday Night Live" is something Adele says she's always wanted to do.

She's making an appearance on Saturday Night Live, but this time, Adele will do her best to bring in the jokes. The British songbird revealed on Instagram that she's taking to the SNL stage this weekend (October 24) and to say that she's excited is an understatement. Fans are still waiting on new music from the singer, as she hasn't given any new tunes since 25 back in 2015, but this is arguably the next best thing.

"Bloooooody hellllll I’m so excited about this!! And also absolutely terrified! My first ever hosting gig and for SNL of all things!!!!" Adele wrote on Instagram. "I’ve always wanted to do it as a stand alone moment, so that I could roll up my sleeves and fully throw myself into it, but the time has never been right. But if there was ever a time for any of us to jump head first into the deep end with our eyes closed and hope for the best it’s 2020 right?"

H.E.R. will act as the musical guest for the evening and Adele shared how this appearance is her "full circle" moment. "Itll be almost 12 years to the day that I first appeared on the show, during an election...which went on to break my career in America, so it feels full circle and I just couldn’t possibly say no! I am besides myself that H.E.R will be the musical guest!! I love her SO much I can’t wait to melt into a flaming hot mess when she performs, then confuse myself while I laugh my arse off in between it all." Will you be tuning in this Saturday?
