'SNL' Guests That Were Never Invited Back After Odd Performances

NBC's Saturday Night Live is a launching pad for an artist's career, and with millions of viewers tuning in, it's the perfect stage to make your mark. When things go wrong on SNL, though, they go really wrong. Just as many careers have been undone on the show by bad behavior, weak rapport, or a lack of humor, the same can happen to a celebrity host. SNL has high standards to maintain, and in the worst of these situations, artists have been permanently blacklisted from Studio 8H...

Paris Hilton Was Rude

After hosting and not learning her lines, the famous socialite never been back. She also had no interest in getting to know the cast: Seth Meyers offered $100 to the first person who heard Hilton ask a personal question; no one won the money. That's so not hot.

Frank Zappa Was A Bad Sport

Most hosts are stoked to be on SNL, but Zappa made it clear he wasn't a fan. He mocked the cue cards, making it obvious he was reading from them, and was a bad sport with cast and crew during the prep week.

Chevy Chase's Bad Behavior

The comedic actor — and former SNL cast member — got a "soft ban" from the show in 1997 after he didn't get along well with other cast members during sketches. This came after decades of alleged bad behavior from the actor. Still, he reappeared on Weekend Update a decade later.

The Replacements Got Wild

Strict rules apply to guests in Studio 8H, one of which prohibits alcohol and drug use. The band ignored this and performed drunk in 1986, eventually cursing live on air, prompting their subsequent blacklist.
