Gracie Abrams Channels Baz Luhrmann’s ‘Romeo + Juliet’ For ‘SNL’ Halloween Performance

As Gracie Abrams celebrated Halloween with Saturday Night Live, she gave viewers a 2-for-1 costume special during her performances.

For her first performance, “Hit the Wall” from her third studio album Daughter from Hell, Abrams donned Danes’ angel costume from the movie, beginning the song from behind an aquarium. Later in the episode, Abrams sang “Here You Come, There You Go” from the deluxe album, while sporting DiCaprio’s tropical button-down shirt with the metal sleeves from his suit of armor costume.
