Twenty One Pilots Performs “Heathens” & “Ride” On ‘SNL’

Rock-rap-pop band Twenty One Pilots made its Saturday Night Live debut during the October 8 episode — the latest proof of its unlikely pop stardom.

Twenty One Pilots performed “Ride,” off last year’s Blurryface, and “Heathens,” off the Suicide Squad soundtrack. Longtime fans might have missed breakthrough hit “Stressed Out,” though this set list made sense: Last month those songs were simultaneously in the top five, making Twenty One Pilots only the third act to achieve this after Elvis Presley and the Beatles.

Still, to see Twenty One Pilots on this national stage was surreal, even after its performance with A$AP Rocky at the MTV Video Music Awards. The band didn’t hold back on the theatrics, either; reliably, frontman Tyler Joseph broke into alter ego Blurryface, who “appears” when Tyler covers his face with his black-painted hands.

Jane the Virgin Season Finale Recap: The Wedding of Jane Gloriana Villanueva

Ivonne Coll as Alba, Gina Rodriquez as Jane, Andrea Navedo as Xo. If I could write this whole recap with emojis, there'd be several varieties of hearts, the running man, the dancing woman, and lots and lots of fires and heart-eyed faces. Those creepy dancing twin girls would also make an appearance. And there'd be a gun. My imaginary emoji recap is appealing because it's incredibly hard to come away from a blockbuster hour of television like "Chapter Forty-Four" and pull together coherent thoughts that aren't just "AHHH!" or "WHY would you get ICE for the DAMN CHAMPAGNE?!" or "OMG FACE OFF MASK!" or "Why isn't all of life just Jane and Rogelio doing that father/daughter dance forever?" But I'll give it a try. Jane the Virgin 's season finale is a narrative fireworks display, a shock-and-awe storytelling spectacular that short-circuits emotional processing centers with blazing confidence. It drops j...
