Cyrus while performing Flower, in the mid shouted, "I love you, Paul Rudd!"
The Ant-Man star reflected on the moment, in an interview with the WSJ magazine saying, "When she said that, I did turn into a 15-year-old."
He went on to describe his inner teenage monologue in that moment, saying, "There’s no way! It’s like, Oh, my God, she’s sick. I can’t. OK, oh, my God. Miley Cyrus said my name!"
Rudd added that he spent "a good 10 minutes afterward" excited about the moment.
Following the performance, the Death of the Unicorn actor, the very next day during rehearsals for the SNL anniversary special told her, "I love you too."
In addition to Cyrus, Lady Gaga, Chris Martin, Bad Bunny, Post Malone, Jelly Roll, Jack White, Brittany Howard and others performed during the Homecoming Concert, which was hosted by SNL alum Jimmy Fallon.
