Dongs. “Each dong is like a snowflake, except that it’s a dong,” Kendrick croons, “And we gotta catch ’em all like sexual Pokémon.” Then Kendrick raps (because all people named Kendrick [can rap](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZW7et3tPuQ "undefined"), apparently.) And then out of nowhere, Icona Pop make a cameo. Warning: the song is very, very catchy, so don’t be surprised if you find yourself singing “dongs — all over the world!” quietly to yourself later today. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/50938/anna-kendrick-raps-on-snl/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/50938/anna-kendrick-raps-on-snl/"},"headline":"Watch Anna Kendrick Shed Her Nice Girl Image On SNL","datePublished":"2014-04-06T14:04:16.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:08:32.691Z","description":"The Pitch Perfect star left her cups at home to rap about international sex tourism during her first stint as Saturday Night Live host","url":"https://time.com/50938/anna-kendrick-raps-on-snl/","keywords":["Newsfeed","NBC","SNL","Saturday Night Live","Anna Kendrick","Arts"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Samantha Grossman","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/samantha-grossman/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/50938/anna-kendrick-raps-on-snl/","name":"Watch Anna Kendrick Shed Her Nice Girl Image On SNL"}}]}] ```
