"Hi I'm Kim Kardashian West and I'm hosting SNL this week with Halsey," she began before showing off her comedy timing when Cecily Strong called on the pair to join her in a girl group.

"We already said no when you pitched that backstage," she retorted.

In a second promo, Kim was asked if she was nervous, and then poked fun at her public persona by asking: "I don't have to write sketches do I? Memorize lines? Everyone else won't look as good as me will they?"

When told the answer was no to all three, she shrugged and exclaimed: "This is so easy."

Kim will host the show on 9 October 2021

Kim and Kanye filed for divorce in early 2021 after months of speculation that the couple were ending their almost seven-year marriage.

The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star filed documents in February through her lawyer Laura Wasser but the date of separation was not listed.

However, they have remained close and in August Kim attended two listening parties of Kanye's in Atlanta.

The father-of-four has been working on his tenth album, Donda - named after his late mother - and it was set for release in July 2020 before being pushed back over a year.

Kim shared several photos from the party, including one of the SKIMs mogul striking a pose next to her sister, Khloe Kardashian, showing off her svelte figure in a red leather zip-up jumpsuit that she paired with oversized black square sunglasses.

Their four children were in attendance, and in one picture daughter North, eight, and son Saint, five, stood in front of the sisters rocking black shirts and black leather pants that matched their ensembles too.
