The latest season of Saturday Night Live felt transitional in many ways, but it was full of blockbuster pop stars, up-and-coming bands and musical legends. We ranked them from worst to best.

For its 50th anniversary, Saturday Night Live has a weekend of live events starring cast members, musicians and celebrities.

Half the inductees in the performer category were nominated for the first time this year. The ceremony will stream live on Disney+ in October.

Mariah Carey, Cher, Sinéad O'Connor, Mary J. Blige and Sade are on the latest inductee shortlist. It's notable for an institution long focused on white male artists.

A first in a career spanning six decades: Cher has a Christmas album. She talked with NPR about her mother, her experience working with Stevie Wonder, and the time she hopped a freight train at age 9.
