Why Morgan Wallen was replaced by Joe Jonas in SNL sketch
Wallen's "abrupt" exit from the live show, where he left the stage as the credits rolled instead of interacting with the cast, sparked controversy and confusion.
SNL cast member Kenan Thompson expressed his bewilderment at Wallen's departure, describing it as a "spike in the norm."
Wallen later posted an Instagram story with a picture of a private jet and the caption "Get me to God's country," which he subsequently used on merchandise.
Sources close to Wallen claim there was no ill intent behind his actions, suggesting he might not have been aware of the cameras during his exit.

Influencers 'inches from death' after car slams into restaurant during live food review
Influencer couple Patrick Blackwood and Nina Santiago were recording a food review at a restaurant in Houston, Texas when a car reportedly slammed into the booth they were sitting at Two influencers renowned for their food reviews were struck by a vehicle whilst filming a segment on Saturday at a Houston, Texas eatery. Video footage captures Patrick Blackwood and Nina Santiago sampling their meals at CuVee's Culinary Creations when a car reportedly crashed through the glass window of their booth, smashing the pane, hurling the influencers forward, and causing Santiago to tumble from her seat. The motorist informed police that she thought her vehicle was in park before removing her foot from the brake, causing the car to plough into the restaurant, according to the Harris County Sheriff's Office. "The chef, influencers, guests, and staff were all blessed to not be severely harmed," CuVee's Culinary Creations told NBC News. "We appreciate the love and support." The footage was uploaded to the YouTube channel Unrated EX Files with the incident occurring approximately 10:35 minutes into the recording, reports the Mirror US. The vlog subsequently shows both influencers inside the ambulance and at the medical facility. "Still here," Blackwood said in the video. "Um, I'm OK now, heart rate's regulated. The realization just hit...I was not expecting this bulls*** right here. But um, I'm glad I'm alive." Whilst awaiting stitches, Santiago revealed this marked the second accident they had experienced this month. "This is the second accident this month," Santiago stated. "The fact that we walked away from both accidents ... maybe I'm just delusional right now but I'm just like, it's like I want to break down and cry and I just can't." Both shared pictures displaying their wounds on Instagram, with the snaps showing the pair sporting stitches and staples across their gashes. "Hey everyone, it's @NinaUnrated and @PatrickBlackwood here, and we can't even begin to express how incredibly fortunate we feel to be alive after what happened to us. We were just sitting in a cozy booth at our favorite restaurant, enjoying happy hour with an amazing spread salmon sliders, presidential oysters, a macaroni and cheese flight (classic, lobster, and truffle), shrimp and grits, and some refreshing drinks," Unrated EX Files stated on Youtube in the video's description. "We were laughing, having a great time, and right as we tapped our sliders together in a "boom!" cheers moment, out of nowhere, this SUV came barreling through the glass wall at 35-40 mph. No warning at all glass shattered everywhere, chaos erupted, and it hit right next to Patrick on the outside of the booth. We were inches from disaster, but by some miracle, we're both okay, just shaken and forever changed." The social media stars returned to the eatery following the drama to grab a bite. "We came back just to make sure to have peace of mind, and also because the food is actually amazing," Santiago said.

Photo of Elle Macpherson confirms long-standing rumour about the model
A recent photo of Elle Macpherson has confirmed a long-standing rumour about the model's hair. The 61-year-old posted a series of holiday snaps to Instagram on Tuesday and one image appears to confirm that Elle wears hair extensions to add volume to her locks. The photo shows Elle walking through a European city in a brown shirt and matching skirt. She had her long blonde locks tied into a messy bun but as she looked down, one of her hair extension bonds was visible. The clip-in extension was noticeable on the top of her head as she pulled her locks back. Hollywood stars and models often wear wigs and hair extensions to achieve a more youthful appearance as hair thins and loses volume with age. Elle is renowned for her radiant, luscious locks and youthful complexion. She previously revealed how she protects her hair when she's not working with the best in the beauty business. From ditching the hot tools to protecting her locks from the harsh sun, Elle shared her top five tips for optimal health hair on her Get The Gloss column. She said she is a big believer that eating well and having a healthy gut plays a crucial role in keeping hair thick and luscious. 'The gut plays a crucial role in nutrient absorption,' she said. 'The combination of botanical herbs, antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, and probiotics that feature in The Super Elixir™ and The Hair Elixir [from WelleCo] will keep your gut microbiome, and in turn your hair, healthy.' Elle also explained it's best to put the hot tools down and keep hair natural as much as possible. Elle also said it's important to protect hair from the sun and believes this is key to keeping her hair silky and healthy. When she is out in the sun and the sea, she uses hydrating and protecting masks. In colder climates, the supermodel wears her hair in braids with a leave-in mask to ensure UV protection and hydration. And one of Elle's biggest tips for healthier hair is a well-looked-after scalp. She likes to give herself a gentle scalp massage with a natural oil like coconut, almond, or jojoba to improve blood circulation and stimulate hair growth.
