Pharrell's SNL Sketch and "Happy" & "Marilyn Monroe" Performance

On the night of his 41st birthday and one month removed from dropping his G I R L LP, Pharrell can now cross SNL music guest off his bucket (hat) list. Watch the videos below of Pharrell performing "Happy" backed by a young dance troupe before taking the stage once more for a special rendition of "Marilyn Monroe" with help from Hans Zimmer and an all female string section. Pharrell's SNL appearance also managed to utilize his acting chops later in the episode alongside Buffalo Girls high hat-donning Kenan Thompson and Taran Killam and a Rent-singing Anna Kendrick.
