Live from New York, there was a familiar bangs-clad silhouette visible behind a curtain during Lily Allen's Saturday Night Live performance on December 13. Dakota Johnson made a surprise appearance as "Madeline" wearing an in-character lingerie-inspired look, before changing into a second after-party-proof semi-sheer set.
Almost a year after Johnson's latest SNL hosting gig, the musical guest welcomed her back to 30 Rockefeller Center to portray the titular character of one of the internet's favorite tracks from Allen's fifth studio album, West End Girl. Even before she stepped out from behind the curtain, longtime fans recognized her voice reciting the lyrics: "He told me that you were aware this was going on and that he had your full consent."
