Robyn on 'SNL': Mesmerizing Mix of Singing, Dancing and Spandex

Katy Perry has been getting plenty of Internet love for her hosting turn last night (Dec. 10) on 'Saturday Night Live,' but she wasn't the only female pop star who threw down on the broadcast. Joining her as musical guest was Robyn, and in her pair of performances, the Swedish diva sang and danced up a storm, reminding the world why sparkly spandex pants aren't just for Olympic speed skaters and bobsledders.

Robyn offered up two songs: the Grammy-nominated 'Call Your Girlfriend' and 'Dancing On My Own.' On the former, she showed why she's the rare dance-pop artist that indie peeps can get behind. Backed by two drummers, she worked it in stretch pants and platform boots, at one point following a backward tumble with a quick series of floor-humping pelvic thrusts.

Following that up with 'Dancing On My Own,' the singer changed into a brown tank top, mesh shirt and different (arguably better) pair of spandex pants. She mostly stood still for the first verse but then let loose, making with Pete Townshend windmills, energetic air drums and hand motions that suggested either Broadway hopeful and over-caffeinated NFL ref.
