During the continuation of its historic 50th season Saturday, NBC sketch comedy show “Saturday Night Live” took aim at the UFC.
Harnessing the absurd vocal talent of guest host Ariana Grande, a master impressionist, a pre-taped commercial spoof had the singer playing another legendary musician, Canadian singer Celine Dion – of whom Grande does a spot-on impression.
In the bit, Grande plays Dion doing a promo for UFC 308, which takes place Oct. 26 in Abu Dhabi. She sings parts from Dion’s 1996 cover of “It’s All Coming Back to Me Now,” but changes the words to make them appropriate for the octagon.
