Katy Perry kicks off SNL

Katy Perry will be the first musical guest on Saturday Night Live’s 36th season. The singer already has some skit ideas she wants to share.

Before the official announcement, Perry posted an obscure message on her Twitter page: "Dear Amy Poehler can I please be your braced faced neighbor friend that hangs out with you & RICKKKKK!"

SNL alum Amy Poehler is hosting the first show of the new season on September 25th. One of the comedian’s characters is a 10-year old braceface named Kaitlin. Perry, herself, donned braces this year when she hosted the Teen Choice Awards in August.

Perry then added another post: "OKAY! My BIG surprise is I’m opening the season of SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE on Sept 25 W/SNL Alum Amy Poehler!!!"

California Gurls hitmaker Katy Perry is on a role this year. Her summer anthem, featuring Snoop Dogg, sits at number one on the iTunes singles chart. She is up for two awards at the MTV Video Music Awards. And she is getting married to funny man Russell Brand.

SNL would not confirm whether Perry will be included in any skits when she appears on the show.
