Kid Cudi Rocks Spaghetti-Strap Floral Dress In Apparent Kurt Cobain Tribute On 'SNL'

Musical guest Kid Cudi wowed on “Saturday Night Live ” in a spaghetti-strap floral dress for his performance of “Sad People.” 

During his performance of “Tequila Shots” on the show, he wore a rumpled green cardigan with a T-shirt featuring a photo of the late “SNL ” cast member Chris Farley .

The sweater and dress appeared to be a homage to Kurt Cobain , who notably wore a cardigan during Nirvana’s MTV Unplugged concert in 1993 and a floral dress on a cover of the now-defunct Brit magazine “The Face” that same year.

Cobain died by suicide at the age of 27 on April 5, 1994. Farley died of a drug overdose in 1997 at the age of 33.

Check out Kid Cudi’s performance of “Sad People” in the video up top, and “Tequila Shots” below. Both songs are on his new album, “Man on the Moon III: The Chosen.”
