Anitta made her debut as a musical guest on Saturday Night Live with a two-song set that put fresh material front and center. She performed Choka Choka and Várias Quejas during the April 11 episode, giving viewers an early look at music connected to her next release.
The appearance gave Anitta a major U.S. television moment at a time when attention is building around her latest work. Choka Choka has already drawn interest as a collaboration with Shakira, while Várias Quejas added another layer to the performance and helped shape the set as a wider introduction to her current era.
Instead of using the spotlight for older favorites, Anitta focused on what comes next. That choice made the performance feel purposeful and tied the live set directly to the momentum around her upcoming album. For a broad television audience, the moment worked as both a first for her on the show and a clear preview of the direction of her new music.
