Jimmy Fallon has reportedly shelved plans to launch a pasta sauce line after his business partner on the venture, entertainment mogul Tommy Mottola, was named in recently released documents related to Jeffrey Epstein.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the duo was in the early stages of developing the pasta sauce line, with a potential release targeted for 2027. However, a source told THR on Friday that the “planned venture is definitely not moving forward as the ongoing Epstein story draws in Mottola and questions arise about his friendship with the convicted sex offender.”
Mottola served as chairman and CEO of Sony Music Entertainment for 15 years up until 2023, and now heads the Mottola Media Group and Ntertain Studios. Per THR, newly released documents divulged that Mottola had an ongoing relationship with Epstein from 2010 until his death in 2019.
