Aubrey Plaza joined many other A-listers for SNL50: The Anniversary Special over the weekend. The 40-year-old Parks and Recreation alum appeared on the live show on Sunday night, making it her first public appearance since the tragic death of her husband Jeff Baena on January 2nd, 2025, aged just 47.
As well as commending her bravery for stepping out in public just one month after the tragedy, the Megalopolis actress‘s fans commended her for paying tribute to her husband in a very special way.
The White Lotus star paid tribute to her late husband by wearing a tie-dye printed T-shirt underneath her black suit when she introduced Miley Cyrus and Brittany Howard for their performance of Sinéad O’Connor’s “Nothing Compares 2 U.”
Fans will remember that tie-dye has a very special connection to the couple, which Plaza referenced in several interviews over the years. In a December 2021 appearance on the Ellen DeGeneres Show, the brunette beauty recalled: “We were in the lockdown. Things got a little crazy, especially in my house. My husband got really into tie-dying and when I say tie-dying, I mean 50 shirts a day.”
