Morgan Wallen Abruptly Walks Off SNL Stage During End Credits

Morgan Wallen surprised many fans during the March 30 episode of Saturday Night Live when he left the stage before the end credits finished rolling. This abrupt exit is quite rare in the show's extensive 50-season history.

Details of His Exit

Wallen left just six seconds into the end credits after embracing guest host Mikey Madison. Madison recently celebrated her first Oscar win for her leading role in Anora. Many viewers reacted with astonishment. One user on X (previously Twitter) remarked, "I don’t think I’ve ever seen that in decades of watching SNL."

Shortly after departing, Wallen shared a photo of what seemed to be a private jet on a runway with the phrase, "Get me to God's country."

Context of the Departure

While Wallen has not publicly commented on this situation, a source close to him told TMZ he did not intend to cause any disruption. The source noted that Wallen often exited in the same manner during rehearsals.

Previous Controversies

This isn’t Wallen's first brush with controversy related to the NBC show. In October 2020, his planned SNL debut was canceled due to TikTok videos showing him partying without a mask. This led to criticism for ignoring social distancing guidelines during the COVID-19 pandemic. Following the backlash, Wallen issued an apology, acknowledging his careless actions.

However, he later made his SNL debut, incorporating humor about the earlier incident into a sketch.
