Jerry Seinfeld made a surprise appearance on Weekend Update tonight, appearing as Grammy-winning artist Dua Lipa pulled double duty on Saturday Night Live.

The Emmy winner popped up unexpectedly amid Colin Jost and Michael Che's routine banter on the weekly series. In a segment poking fun at those who have succumbed to the addiction of "excessive press" appearances, Seinfeld ribbed on previous guest host Ryan Gosling and warned him not to take on too many scheduled interview opportunities. While doing so, the actor-writer accepted a fake call from Univision, agreeing to an interview he would be conducting in Catalan.

Seinfeld also introduced Lipa's second song of the night, "Happy For You," from her recently released album Radical Optimism. Also making a cameo was fellow pop star and friend Troye Sivan, who introduced Lipa's first performance, "Illusion."

The 70-year-old appeared on SNL timed to the release of his new Netflix movie Unfrosted: The Pop-Tart Story, a '60s-set dramedy about the not-quite-true story behind the creation of the Pop Tart, which he directed and stars in. He also recently took to the stage at Netflix is a Joke Festival, alongside comedians like Nate Bargatze and Sebastian Maniscalco.

As the night closed, Lipa thanked the audience, cast and crew while standing alongside Seinfeld and Sivan.
