No, the Taylor Swift, Kanye West VMA jokes aren't dead quite yet.  
  
  
  
The country star will be both the host and musical guest of "Saturday Night Live" this weekend. One of the show's promos ridicules the rude rapper's interruption during Swift's acceptance speech at the MTV Video Music Awards in September.  
  
  
  
In the clip, the bubbly singer attempts to announce she will be hosting the show when "SNL" cast member Bill Hader interrupts her to say, "Whoops, Kanye West just called. He thinks Beyoncé should host instead."  
  
  
  
There is silence, and Hader adds, "Funny joke, right? VMAs . . . "  
  
  
  
Swift rolls her eyes and turns away.  
  
  
  
The bit refers to the Kanye/Taylor VMA fiasco when West interrupted Swift's acceptance speech for best female video, claiming Beyoncé deserved the award instead.  
  
  
  
"Saturday Night Live" airs Saturday at 11:30 p.m. on NBC.
