Glen Powell crashes Sydney Sweeney’s ‘SNL’ gig to dispel dating rumors
Anyone But Them.
Hollywood hunk Glen Powell made a surprise appearance on “Saturday Night Live” last night to put any dating rumors between him and “Anyone But You” co-star Sydney Sweeney to bed.
Sweeney, 26, who was hosting the show, announced that Powell, 35, was in the audience during her opening monologue where she addressed “some stuff I’ve seen about me online.”
“I once said that I used to work at Universal Studios and then someone online accused me of lying about that, which is insane,” said the “White Lotus” alum. “If I didn’t work there, how would I know all the Universal characters, like ‘Shock’, ‘The Monions’ and ‘Harry Porter’.”
Next, Sweeney dished on “a woman on TikTok [who] went viral because she claimed she was my nutritionist,” adding that she stays in shape by running, avoids sugar and “does Ozempic.”
Finally, the “Madame Web” actress tackled what she called the “craziest rumor” about her which states “that while I was filming ‘Anyone But You’ I was having an affair with my co-star Glen Powell.”
“That’s obviously not true,” explained Sweeney. “Me and my fiancé produced the movie together and he was there the entire shoot, and I just want to let everyone know that he’s the man of my dreams and we’re still together and stronger than ever.”
“He even came here tonight to support me. Can we cut to him?” the “Euphoria” star continues as the camera cuts to Powell prompting an outburst of laughter and applause from the crowd.
“Yeah, no, that’s not my fiancé. He’s in my dressing room!” she said referring to her real fiance Jonathan Davino before concluding her monologue.
The duo later continued to poke fun at the alleged relationship when they both appeared in a skit where the “Top Gun: Maverick” actor attempts to steal Sweeney away from her boyfriend.
In the skit, Sweeney and Andrew Dismukes can be seen sitting down for dinner next to two rowdy tables.
After shushing down both tables, Dismukes, 28, turns to Sweeney, asking, “You were telling me something happened at work today?”
“I cheated on you with my boss and I think we should break up,” Sweeney’s character responds.
It is at this moment Powell makes his entrance asking “Hey babycakes, want to get out here?” before they both depart.
Rumors that Sweeney and Powell had been dating first started swirling shortly after ending his relationship with Gigi Paris, as the two stars were spotted getting very cozy on the set of their hit rom-com.
Sweeney has been engaged to Davino, 40, since 2022. In May, she wore her engagement ring for the first time in nearly a year.
“Glen and I don’t really care,” Sweeney told Variety about the rumors. “We have so much fun together, and we respect each other so much; he’s such a hard worker, and I’m a hard worker.”
Powell also spoke out about the claims in an interview with Men’s Health.
“When all that stuff happened, you know, publicly, it felt disorienting and unfair. But what I’m realizing is that’s just a part of this gig now,” he said in November 2023.
