The music legend surprised viewers during the May 16 finale of SNL when he casually returned to the stage during the show’s closing moments for an unexpected third song after the credits rolled.

Another noted, “Don’t get me wrong. I LOVE @PaulMcCartney but after his singing performance on @nbcsnl tonight someone seriously needs to have an intervention. I was embarrassed for him.”

“Look, the only correct take about watching Paul McCartney at 83 in 2026, on SNL no less, is that it’s a privilege to still witness him do this,” one said.
The former The Beatles member was heavily involved throughout the episode beyond just the musical performances. During host Will Ferrell’s opening monologue, McCartney jokingly interrupted to insist that he—not Ferrell—was actually hosting the show.
The episode also revived Ferrell’s long-running resemblance joke with Chad Smith of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, who crashed the monologue pretending he was the real host, and played drums for McCartney’s performances.
