Actress Debra Messing recently took to social media in confusion as to why Kardashian was set to host the show.

Messing wrote on Twitter, “Why Kim Kardashian?”

“I mean, I know she is a cultural icon,” Messing continued, “But SNL has hosts, generally, who are performers who are there to promote a film, TV show, or album launch. Am I missing something?”

Many of the responses on the Twittersphere were mixed, however there was a large consensus that the reality star is worthy of a spot on the storied show.
