Benson Boone broke out his signature backflip on Thursday (May 1) to promote his upcoming appearance on Saturday Night Live.
When the first SNL promo opens, the pop sensation is nowhere to be found, missing his cue after host Quinta Brunson excitedly introduces him as the episode’s musical guest. “Huh, he was supposed to flip into frame,” SNL standout Sarah Sherman points out, leading Brunson to worry, “Yeah, I hope he’s OK.”

Only after the two women start calling out Boone’s name does the “Beautiful Things” singer tumble onto the screen — backflipping into Studio 8H as Brunson and Sherman let out screams of surprise. (“Hi ladies! Gotcha!” he adds with a grin.)
In a second promo, Brunson keeps a giddy Boone from doing another flip, amusingly muttering, “He be flippin’,” under her breath in the process.
The 2025 best new artist Grammy nominee isn’t the only person launching himself head over heels in the video, either. In the final segment, Sherman volunteers to be the one to try out the gymnastics move with an unworried “I’ll figure it out!” Naturally, this leads to disaster with the comedian sprawled out on the studio floor and unable to move, her limbs contorted in unnatural angles as an on-set medic attends to her (fake) injuries.
Boone’s debut appearance on the long-running sketch series is sure to continue building excitement for his highly anticipated sophomore album, American Heart, which will be released June 20 and feature previously released singles “Sorry I’m Here for Someone Else” and “Mystical Magical.”
The 22-year-old heartthrob’s sure-to-be aerial performance on the stage of Studio 8H also follows his rollicking sets at Coachella last month, which included plenty of backflips and a surprise appearance on weekend 1 of Queen guitarist Brian May for a cover of “Bohemian Rhapsody.”
Watch Boone flip out over his upcoming Saturday Night Live gig below.
