Who was the first woman to host Saturday Night Live?
Candice Bergen
Betty White
Carrie Fisher
Barbra Streisand
George Carlin served as the first host of Saturday Night Live when the sketch comedy debuted in 1975. Just three episodes later, Candice Bergen made her mark as the first female host, breaking barriers with her debut. At age 27, Bergen had no comedy experience listed on her résumé, yet Lorne Michaels asked her to host the fourth episode. He was so impressed with her performance, she was invited back to host again just a month later. Bergen was also the first woman to join the Five-Timers Club, when she hosted SNL for the fifth time in 1990.
Correct Answer: Candice Bergen
