Sam Smith just beat their last “Saturday Night Live” performance with “Unholy” collaborator Kim Petras in a performance of the smash hit that was inspired by a horror movie. Smith started the song in red leather, surrounded by a group of dancers who reminded people of Samara from “The Ring.” Then, the scene switched to Petras dancing in a cage, surrounded by dominatrices wearing satanic masks. Smith also wore a satanic top hat, and the stage was filled with huge flames. Smith and Petras won the Grammy earlier in the night for best pop duo or group performance, and Petras gave an emotional speech. When asked backstage about his fiery performance, Petras said he did it because he didn’t feel like he was accepted by religion. We might have some big updates for you all, check it out:
