Ariana Grande performed one of her greatest hits on the latest episode of “Saturday Night Live” – her famed Celine Dion impression. The “Wicked” actress and singer served as the episode’s host and appeared in a pre-taped sketch that poked fun at Dion’s viral Sunday Night Football promo for last week’s Steelers-Cowboys matchup. In the sketch, Grande as Dion was promoting the Ultimate Fighting Championship, saying it’s “another sport whose timeless emotions ignite the bittersweet memories that live inside my soul. And… in the octagon.” Grande then broke out into a parody of Dion’s 1996 ballad “It’s All Coming Back to Me Now.” Lyrics included references to some of the injuries that UFC fighters suffer and lines like “when I hit you like this, when you choke me like that.” Dion last week appeared in a video promoting Sunday Night Football’s game between the Dallas Cowboys and the Pittsburgh Steelers, wherein she playfully connected the hit song to both teams.
