OK! NEWS: NO SNL FOR ROBERT PATTINSON
Back in April 2009, OK! asked Lorne if R-Pattz would be hosting SNL.
“Not this season,” he said at Natural Resources Defense Council 11th annual Forces For Nature benefit in NYC. "We’re all locked in with the hosts for this year."
But he still held out hope for securing the vampire hottie in the future.
“Yeah, yeah, of course,” he said.

Unfortunately, not much has changed.
"We asked him this season," Lorne told OK! Monday night at the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences Presents An Evening with Saturday Night Live in NYC. "And then he did Jimmy’s show and that went well for him.."
It sounds like Lorne might be more confident in Rob's comedic skills after seeing him on Jimmy Fallon's show!

Back in 2009, he was slightly skeptical if the Twilight star would make a good host.
"Don’t know," Lorne said. "You never know.”
But now he hopes he'll host soon.
"Yeah," Lorne admitted.
