Part of me wants to recoil in horror at this news, but Grande proved herself to be game for both comedy and live TV during her recent SNL hosting stint. Plus, she's got the right look for the role and can actually sing. (Plus, it gives the production a star to lean on for promotional purposes, which I'm sure wasn't part of NBC's thought process at all...)
