Raye puts on a leggy display in a beige mini dress as she arrives at Saturday Night Live afterparty following performance on the show

Raye put on a leggy display as she headed to the Saturday Night Live afterparty in New York on Sunday.

The songstress, 26, was the musical guest on the latest episode of the show and headed out to let her hair down following the performance.

As she stepped out she showed off her pins in a beige knitted mini dress which had an off-the-shoulder neckline.

She completed the look with white leather boots and wore a shiny red handbag over her shoulder. 

The beauty accessorised with statement silver earrings and had her dark tresses styled into a short curly do as usual.

Earlier in the night she graced the stage wearing a chic long black dress as she belted out her hits. 

Kristen Wiig officially joined SNL‘s five-timers club as she took on hosting duties for the fifth time during the latest episode of the popular sketch comedy series. 

The Bridesmaids actress, 50 – who recently reprised her SNL role of the Target lady in a humorous ad for the superstore retailer – was also joined by British songstress and musical guest, Raye.

The show kicked off with a star-studded monologue as several celebrities made surprise cameos to help celebrate Wiig’s milestone – including Ryan Gosling, Paul Rudd and Matt Damon. 

The appearance on SNL comes after Raye said she has to battle to find positives in her stratospheric rise to fame – and plans to start therapy to help her cope after sweeping the board at last month’s Brit Awards with a record-breaking six wins.

The London-born singer admitted to struggling, even though her career is finally taking off after years of hard work.

‘I feel lonely,’ she said. ‘I don’t mean that in the sense of wanting a partner or wanting to be in love. It’s not that.

‘I need to do some therapy, get some practices in place to let the negatives fall away and soak up all the positive things that life is offering me right now.’

The ‘Escapism’ singer – whose real name is Rachel Keen – said she struggles with confidence and feels ‘out of place’ when not writing music or performing.

‘I’m not the most confident in my appearance, it’s something I still struggle with,’ she said. ‘I feel confident when I write, when I sing.’

She has been deeply affected by negative comments about her weight and appearance on social media, and believes trolling is worse for women in the industry, whose looks are regularly ‘critiqued’. 

‘You can see thousands of people’s opinions. When you let those opinions in, you start to loathe yourself or pick yourself apart,’ she told Elle Magazine.

‘People have been saying I don’t look like a woman; really nasty comments that go round and round in your head.’ 

Raye, who has spoken out about her experience of sexual assault in the industry, has no desire to be ‘famous’ or an ‘influencer’, and just wants ‘millions and millions of ears’ listening to her music.

She signed with record company Polydor as a teenager, but claims they refused to release her debut album after seven years. 

The album, My 21st Century Blues, was released independently and became one of the biggest records of 2023.
