Well, this was totally unexpected. In the SNL sketch, “Troye Sivan Sleep Demon,” Sarah Sherman‘s sleep paralysis demon was actually “gay famous” Troye Sivan.

We kind of loved Timothée Chalamet confessing that he can’t do an Australian accent as he portrayed Troye’s tiny t-shirts, huge pants, and odd dances (including peeks at his red underwear).

The whole sketch was ridiculous — and we’re not sure how it would play for those who have no idea who Troye is — but it was an infectious kind of silly.

Bowen Yang was clearly enjoying his role as the doctor analyzing Troye, while the women of Boygenius dropped in for an adorably unexpected cameo at the end.

Troye Sivan responded on Instagram, wriiting “WHY IS LIFE SO WEIRDDDDD RN LMAO IM DEAD @tchalamet @fayedunaway @nbcsnl”
