50 years ago today, the music icon broke the longtime-running show’s tradition with a bold move that still stands out today.
Simon guested on SNL to promote her sixth studio album, Another Passenger, which was set to be released a month after her appearance on the show.
At the time, the lead track from her then-upcoming album “Half a Chance” and her number one single “You’re so Vain” were aired, along with a cameo appearance of a cast member, Chevy Chase, playing the cowbell and providing backup harmonies, making it more special.

Instead of hiding it from the audience, she told them what was happening and received incredible support from the concertgoers.
The singer and songwriter suffered from severe and lifelong performance anxiety, which affected her music career.
Instead, she performed live on select shows and through intimate tours, most notably during her breakthrough in the 1970s.
In 2005, Simon launched her Serenade Tour with a performance at Grand Central Terminal. In support of her 20th studio album, Moonlight Serenade, she marked her first tour in 10 years, performing her classic hits live and was accompanied by her children, Sally and Ben.
