Saturday Night Live’s latest season features many new cast members including Miami native, Marcello Hernandez.  Typically recognized by the Instagram account @OnlyInDade, Hernandez made a splash performance in his debut.

As the Creative Director of Only In Dade, he has also dabbled in other kinds of comedy. He was named “The New Face of Comedy” at the Montreal Festival. He got his start in standup comedy back in 2016. He would perform during comedy nights at Taurus, a bar in Coconut Grove. The OnlyInDade Instagram account has amassed over 950,000 followers and it looks to catch the 305’s funniest and wildest videos of the week. Hernandez is also a writer and actor.

The Cuban-Dominican comedian is a host and has interviewed celebrities like Floyd Mayweather, Nicky Jam, Cuba Gooding Jr., Mayor Francis Suarez, Ray J, and more.

His hometown of Miami couldn’t be more proud and SNL is lucky to have him!

This is a huge accomplishment for Marcello, and South Florida couldn’t be any happier for him. Congrats, dude!!!
