At the end of the very first “At Home” edition of “Saturday Night Live”, some special guests joined the cast to pay tribute to a longtime member of the show’s behind-the-scenes team: Hal Wilner, the show’s music supervisor since 1980.

According to Rolling Stone, Wilner passed away on April 7 of complications consistent with COVID-19. In addition to his role on “SNL”, Wilner was a renowned music producer, producing albums for such artists as Lou Reed, Lucinda Williams and Marianne Faithful. “Everything at ‘SNL’ happens really quickly, except some of the sketches the writers write are more cinematic in quality, and so they need to be scored more like a movie in order for them to make sense and make the jokes land,” said Kate McKinnon of

(Photo by Christian Petersen/Getty Images) PHILADELPHIA - The Philadelphia 76ers will formally introduce James Harden to the media and fans on Tuesday.The team will be hosting an introductory press conference at their Camden, New Jersey training complex at noon to introduce Harden and veteran forward Paul Millsap. Both players were acquired ahead of last week’s trade deadline in a deal with the Brooklyn Nets that sent Ben Simmons, Seth Curry, Andre Drummond, and two first-round picks to the Nets. You can watch their introductory press conference live on FOX 29 and FOX29.com. While Curry and Drummond made their Nets debut on Monday night – with Simmons in attendance on the bench – Harden is not expected to take the court for the Sixers until after the upcoming All-Star break. The Sixers are still eager to test out the partnership between Harden, a 32-year-old former MVP, and Joel Embiid. The 76ers are getting an MVP-worthy year out of Embiid, and team President Daryl Morey — who was in the front office with Houston when Harden played for the Rockets — made the deadline deal to ensure the Sixers have plenty for the championship push.Embiid leads the league in scoring with 29.4 points and has scored at least 25 points in 30 straight games.

'Price I’m willing to pay': Novak Djokovic would skip French Open, Wimbledon over vaccine stance

Novak Djokovic said he would skip the French Open and Wimbledon, foregoing the chance to overtake Rafael Nadal's record haul of 21 Grand Slams titles, rather than get vaccinated against COVID-19.And the No. 1-ranked tennis player is also still smarting about being deported last month from Australia in a drama about his vaccination status that polarized opinion worldwide.Speaking in an interview broadcast Tuesday by the BBC, the 20-time Grand Slam champion said he is still not vaccinated, and prepared to sacrifice titles to stay that way.If need be, not defending his titles at Roland Garros and Wimbledon and missing other tournaments is "the price that I am willing to pay," said the 34-year-old Serb, comments likely to further boost his hero-status among some opponents of vaccination.Djokovic said he is not opposed to vaccinations and sought to distance himself from anti-vaccination campaigners, saying: "I have never said that I am part of that movement."But he said "everyone has the right to choose, to act, or say what ever they feel is appropriate for them" and that he believes in "the freedom to choose what you put into your body.
