I’m Headed to God’s Country …
Ditches ‘SNL’ Stage During Credits

Morgan Wallen raised eyebrows after he abruptly walked off the stage at the end of last night’s “Saturday Night Live” episode, in which he appeared as the musical guest.
Check out the clip … he seems to exchange niceties with host Mikey Madison before giving her a one-armed hug and making a beeline for the exit as the rest of the cast celebrates the completion of another episode.
Remember, it’s customary for the musical guest to interact with the guest host and cast during the ending credits. Viewers immediately reacted to his unusual exit, with many agreeing he looked ready to leave and that the vibe was off.
Fans also suggested Ego Nwodim and Kenan Thompson looked confused by MW’s exit … with Kenan flashing Ego a cautiously amused look as she watched him head out.
The country crooner’s Instagram Story following his appearance didn’t help the speculation — he posted a snap of a private jet and wrote, “Get me to God’s country.”
However, fans might have gotten a bit carried away with their theory … a source close to Morgan says his walking off stage was an oopsie moment and he meant nothing by it.
We’re told he entered and exited the studio the same way he did Saturday night during rehearsal and camera blocking all week leading up to the live show … so he routinely headed that way when he thought it was time to go.
Morgan, of course, has a rocky past with ‘SNL.’ In October 2020, he was disinvited as the musical guest after he was caught partying it up in Alabama with no mask and locking lips with multiple college women, despite COVID-19 protocols.
His “short-sighted” actions didn’t have a lasting impact on him … he ended up on the show two months later.
TMZ has reached out to reps for ‘SNL’ … so far, no word back.

‘SNL’ Mocks ‘God’s Country’ Remark
… While Trolling Trump
Published
“Saturday Night Live” didn’t miss a beat during last night’s cold open … taking aim at both Donald Trump and Morgan Wallen following the latter’s headline-making appearance on last week’s show.
James Austin Johnson reprised his role as Trump and mocked his tariff plan — which placed a 10% rate on the uninhabited Australian Heard Island and McDonald Islands.
“I want to go to there,” Trump said as he held up artwork showing a happy-looking cheeseburger and chicken nuggets on a sunny beach. “Get me to God’s country, right?”

As you know, the joke referenced the Instagram Story the “Whiskey Glasses” hitmaker posted directly after he walked off the ‘SNL’ stage during the closing credits of last week’s episode, on which he appeared as a musical guest.
Directly after his seemingly early exit, he posted a photo of his private jet with the caption, “Get me to God’s country.” The post sent rumors swirling that he was upset about his appearance on ‘SNL’ or that he had problems with the cast.
Even longtime cast member Kenan Thompson was confused … saying Monday he doesn’t know “what goes through people’s minds when they decide to do stuff like that.”

However … NBC sources confirmed to TMZ there is no bad blood with Morgan, even after an ‘SNL’ writer trolled the situation. We were told everyone had a great time … and that Morgan exited the stage the same way he did during dress rehearsal.
The country crooner seemingly got a kick out of the fuss and is now selling “Get Me To God’s Country” merch.

Seems like the drama just keeps on giving.

Not Sweating Divorce
Published
Jessica Alba is living her best life, hitting the tropics for a fun-filled getaway with her kids amid her divorce to Cash Warren.
On Friday, the actress posted a series of Instagram photos and videos, showing her having a blast on a beautiful beach with her 3 young children — Honor, Haven and Hayes.
In one pic, Jessica is all smiles as she poses during a night out with Honor, Haven and Hayes. In another snap, she’s seen kicking back on the beach while staring at the ocean. In yet another, Jessica gives her youngest Hayes a smooch on the cheek.
Jessica is also photographed on the sand with a couple of friends — all of whom look amazing in their bikinis. And there’s plenty of other footage … check it all out for yourself.
The “Fantastic Four” actress certainly knows how to kick back and relax … we saw her soaking up the sun in Cabo in February as well with the company of her son.
TMZ.com
Jessica’s little vacay comes after she filed for divorce from Cash in February after 16 years of marriage. Cash has filed his own divorce papers, which mirror Jessica’s.

Sources with direct knowledge have told TMZ the divorce is “extremely amicable” with both parties asking for joint physical and legal custody of their 3 kids. The two have no prenup.
