During the live taping of Sunday’s special, former castmembers Tina Fey and Amy Poehler led a comedic Q&A segment. 

When the camera panned to the crowd full of stars, a familiar face was shown as Costner was seen almost touching shoulders with the music icon with a relaxed expression on his face.

Beside him, Cher, who arrived with her boyfriend Alexander Edwards on her arm and put on a loved-up display while walking the red carpet with him, had a cheery grin on her face.

She stood out in the crowd as she modeled a dazzling dress paired with a bleach blonde beehive hairdo.

The much younger music executive kept up the theme in a black jacket and vintage style trousers, paired with shiny dress shoes.
