UFC Fighter Ronda Rousey will make her debut as Saturday Night Live host on Jan. 23.

Selena Gomez, whose latest album Revival has produced hits “Good for You” and “Same Old Love,” will join Rousey as musical guest. This will also be Gomez’s first SNL appearance.

SNL returns Jan. 16 with previously announced first-time host Adam Driver, who plays villain Kylo Ren in the box office record-breaker Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

Driver will be joined by first-time musical guest Grammy Award nominee Chris Stapleton.
