The songstress made her “Saturday Night Live” debut on last night’s episode and showed the world why she was recently named Billboard’s Rising Star. With a two-set performance of ”Dance Apocalyptic” and “Electric Lady,” the 27-year-old starlet rocked her signature black-and-white ensemble and danced her socks off.
