Country star Kacey Musgraves, rapper Young Thug and singer-songwriter Brandi Carlile will also feature as musical acts.
Kardashian celebrated the news on her Instagram Stories, writing: “OMFG no turning back now!!!! LOL I’m hosting SNL!!!!!!”
A number of SNL episodes have poked fun at Kardashian and her extended family in recent years, with comedian Nasim Pedrad portraying her in a number of sketches.
Kardashian filed for divorce from rapper husband Kanye West, 44, in February, citing irreconcilable differences.
However, last month they reunited at a listening party for the rapper’s new album Donda.
The former couple raised eyebrows when Kardashian joined West while wearing a wedding dress.
