Ariana Grande finally hosted her first 'Saturday Night Live' and it seems like she had a blast.

The 22 year-old singer showcased a slew of impressions of the top celebs, including Jennifer Lawrence and the great Whitney Houston, and even spoke about her 2015 doughnut scandal, reports E! Online.

In her monologue, Grande spoke about her 2015 doughnut scandal, where a video was leaked showing her and her boyfriend licking doughnuts sitting on a tray.

The 'Focus' crooner then said "I hate Americans. I hate America." Following a backlash, the singer apologized, adding, she is "extremely proud to be an American."

Grande even performed her new songs 'Be Alright' and 'Dangerous Woman' during the episode.

The pop star first appeared on the NBC's show in 2014, with host Chris Pratt.
