The stars came out in groves to celebrate Saturday Night Live‘s 40th anniversary, which ironically aired last night on a Sunday.

Kerry Washington, Eddie Murphy, Dave Chappelle, Whoopi Goldberg and more attended the celebration, as did Kanye West, who performed an interestingly dark medley of Jesus Walks, Only One and Wolves featuring Sia and Vic Mensa.
