Saturday Night Live cast member Cecily Strong will host this year’s White House Correspondents’ dinner, which you cannot stop from happening.

“Her political humor is sly and edgy, and it comes with a Chicago accent,” WHCA President Christi Parsons said in a release of the Oak Park-raised comedian. The dinner is scheduled for April 2015.

Strong, the fourth woman to perform at the dinner, has a connection to the journalism world: Her father, Bill Strong, was bureau chief for the Associated Press in Illinois. She served as a Weekend Update co-anchor for one season.
