Update: Kacey‘s rep is now speaking out about the performance.

“She was nude,” her rep told Variety. “Precautions were taken, and this was the first time it’s happened on the show.”

Kacey Musgraves appeared on the season premiere of Saturday Night Live as the musical guest.

The country singer performed “Justified” while appearing to be naked.  She held her guitar on her lap, and all you see is skin and her cowboy boots.

It was a nod to “Forrest Gump” when Robin Wright as Jenny did the same thing.  Kacey even Tweeted the pic of Jenny from behind and you see her naked backside.

Thanks to dim lighting, whether Kacey is actually nude or not cannot be seen, but the illusion is there.

There’s also Reddit thread discussing the performance and audience members revealed there were walls blocking their view before the performance, and staff wrapped her in large towels after she finished.

Kacey’s second song was “Camera Roll“, and this time she was fully clothed, although, ironically, with bare feet. 

Both songs are from her new album, “Star-Crossed”.
