The 50th anniversary special of Saturday Night Live (SNL) was a night to remember, but one moment stole the show: Kevin Costner’s starstruck reaction to Cher’s performance. Held at Radio City Music Hall on February 16, the event brought together musical legends like Miley Cyrus, Paul Simon, Cher, and Paul McCartney, as well as Hollywood icons such as Pedro Pascal, Meryl Streep, and Steve Martin.
Cher, now 78, took the stage in her iconic style—a sheer black bodysuit, leather jacket, and thigh-high boots—and delivered a show-stopping performance of her 1989 hit, If I Could Turn Back Time. Fans couldn’t stop raving about her timeless beauty and energy, flooding SNL’s Instagram post with comments like, “Cher HAS turned back time! She looks incredible!”
As Cher performed, the camera captured Kevin Costner in the audience, his hands resting behind his head and a soft smile on his face. The Yellowstone star looked completely captivated, and fans quickly took to social media to share their thoughts. One user wrote, “Kevin’s expression says it all—everyone was amazed by her.” Another added, “Find someone who looks at you the way Costner looks at Cher!”
Two days later, Costner was seen sitting next to Cher at the SNL50: The Anniversary Special, further cementing the moment as one of the night’s highlights. It was a reminder that some things never change: Costner remains effortlessly charming, and Cher continues to reign as a queen.
