Pearl Jam band will appear on ‘SNL’

Associated Press The Spokesman-Review

Pearl Jam will be the musical guests when Lindsay Lohan hosts NBC’s “Saturday Night Live” next Saturday.

It will be Lohan’s third hosting stint – and a rare TV appearance for Pearl Jam.

The Seattle rock band, which earned fame and critical acclaim during the Northwest’s early 1990s grunge movement, will perform songs from its new self-titled album, slated for release May 2.

Antonio Banderas, star of the new film “Take the Lead,” will host tonight’s “SNL,” with hip-hop/soul singer Mary J. Blige as musical guest.

Hello, ‘Girl’

Rick Springfield will perform his ‘80s hit “Jesse’s Girl” and other songs at the Daytime Emmy Awards later this month.

The show will air live April 28 on ABC, with Tom Bergeron and Kelly Monaco of “General Hospital” as hosts.

Springfield, 56, returned to daytime TV last year to reprise his popular “General Hospital” character, Dr. Noah Drake, which he portrayed from 1981 to 1983.

“His performance will be sure to create an energy and frenzy that will make for a very entertaining evening,” said Brian Frons, president of ABC Daytime.
