Rosalía brought a theatrical approach to Saturday Night Live on October 10, performing two songs from her 2025 album Lux.

During the episode hosted by comedian Shane Gillis, the Spanish singer performed Reliquia and Magnolias, combining live music with carefully staged visuals.

For Reliquia, Rosalía appeared in a black ballet tutu and performed while standing en pointe, a technique associated with classical ballet. She maintained a controlled, almost motionless presence for much of the song before dancers joined her toward the end.

Her second performance, Magnolias, featured a different visual setting. Dressed in white, Rosalía sang as artificial rain began falling around her, creating a dramatic backdrop for the song.

The singer also made a brief appearance in a comedy sketch during the episode.

Both performances continued the promotion of Lux, an album that explores orchestral arrangements, classical influences, and vocals in multiple languages.

The appearance marked another television showcase for Rosalía, whose recent live performances have incorporated elements of dance, theater, and contemporary pop music.
