Steve Carell Recalls the Time He Waited on His Doppelgänger Alice Cooper: Watch
During his appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Tuesday night (June 28th), actor Steve Carell recalled the time he waited on his look-alike, rocker Alice Cooper. In the same conversation, Carell also offered up a hilarious impression of Aerosmith singer Steven Tyler. While Carell was on the Tonight Show to promote his new movie Minions: The Rise of Gru, Fallon busted out side-by-side images of The Office star and the veteran shock rocker, clearly displaying the uncanny resemblance. The late-night host wondered if Carell ever met the rock legend, and it turns out he did. “I met Alice Cooper,” responded Carell. “I waited on him when I was working in Chicago, when I was waiting tables. I was working at a restaurant, and he came in. And he was Alice Cooper. And he could...
Nick Jonas Talks Parenthood, Vegas Residency, Plays ‘Auto-Tune Up’ on ‘Tonight Show’
Nick Jonas has taken to parenthood like a pop star takes to a mic. It comes naturally. The Jonas Brother and Priyanka Chopra became parents when they welcomed Malti Marie Chopra Jonas via surrogate in January. Complications followed, however, and their bub spent more than 100 days in the newborn intensive care unit. Thankfully “our little girl’s home and she’s doing amazing,” Jonas told Jimmy Fallon when he stopped by The Tonight Show on Tuesday (May 17). “It’s just, what a gift a baby is. It really is.” And how are the JoBros as uncles? “Amazing,” we’re told.

Normani and Taraji P. Henson Get Sprayed For Not Slaying on ‘That’s My Jam’: Watch
It’s a New Year and Jimmy Fallon is clearly enjoying his new NBC show, That’s My Jam. On Monday night’s episode, The Tonight Show host roped-in a starry lineup for a round of “Slay It Don’t Spray It,” a game which puts contestants’ lyrical skills to the test. Failure is met with a mighty squirt to the face. Entering the Doombox was the pairing of singer Rita Ora and New Zealand filmmaker Taika Waititi, who faced off against Empire actor Taraji P. Henson and pop star Normani. It didn’t start so well for Normani and Taraji, who tackled Jennifer Lopez’s “Waiting for Tonight.” It didn’t end well either, as both were slammed with water.

Bad Bunny Talks ‘Narcos’ Acting Debut and His Return to Touring on ‘Fallon’
Though he’ll portray a new member of the Tijuana cartel, the singer assures us he’s really a good guy in real life. “The character is a cool, young guy, and I’m a cool guy, I think so,” he said. In addition, BB talked about his WWE wrestling experience and looking forward to his touring comeback. “I’m crazy to start my tour, it’ll be epic,” he noted about his first show in two years set to take place on Dec. 10 in Puerto Rico. “It’s going to be special, legendary. My shows are always energetic but Puerto Rico, that’s my home, so I’m going to give it my all.” Fallon also tried to get details on a potential studio album for 2022. “Nah, I don’t know. I’m working on it,” Bunny admitted. “I don’t have a date. We’re working but maybe I’ll send some clues. I’m not sure.” Watch the full interview ...
Jojo Siwa ‘Crushes’ Jimmy Fallon In Dance-Off: Watch
When faced with a slow number, Siwa lifted it a notch. Fallon was beat. “Every time you come on the show, we do a little dance off. And you always crush me,” Fallon said afterwards. “I just got my breath,” he continued. “The audience knows, but during the commercial break they came out with an oxygen tank. And it was sad.” For Siwa, it was a neat warmup for the real thing. She’ll participate on Dancing With the Stars, starting Monday (her partner in the series is female. They’re the first same-sex coupling on DWTS, apparently), a tour is set to begin in January, and her musical film The J Team is new to Paramount+. There’s no update, however, on whether she’ll be allowed to perform J Team numbers on her tour. Watch Siwa and Fallon’s dance-off and interview below. You Dese...
Game of Thrones Actor Kit Harington Covers Train’s “Drops of Jupiter” on Fallon: Watch
Last night, NBC rang in the 1,500th episode (!) of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon with help from Game of Thrones actor Kit Harington. To celebrate the milestone, the TV star broke out a bold cover of “Drops of Jupiter” by Train while playing (?) the piano. Harington puts his whole self into the rendition, which you can see for yourself when watching the performance below. The video opens on Harington, dressed in a black suit and playing a grand piano covered in flower petals and burning candles. After the opening section, Harington immediately starts belting out the lyrics to “Drops of Jupiter” so loudly that you can see the veins popping out of his neck. Once the rest of Fallon’s band starts playing the backing track, Harington doubles down, his face turning red at points as he si...
Watch Swedish House Mafia Perform New Music Medley on Jimmy Fallon’s “The Tonight Show”
Stepping out of the murky shadows of an ambiguous nine-year hiatus, Swedish House Mafia made their first television appearance in over a decade last night. The legendary electronic music trio appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where they performed a medley of their two new songs, “Lifetime” and “It Gets Better.” They kicked off with the former, as Axwell, Sebastian Ingrosso, and Steve Angello performed from their own DJ booths while illuminated in orange spheres—designed to mirror their distinct logo—alongside Ty Dolla $ign and 070 Shake. The performance of “It Gets Better” kicked it up a notch, offering a kaleidoscopic, eerie LED show that seems like a foreshadowing of the group’s live show production. &nb...

Dave Grohl to Co-Host Tonight Show on Monday
It’s already been long established that Dave Grohl can do it all. Well, not all, but he can do a lot. The latest stint? Co-hosting the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. When you think about it, it makes sense. Grohl will be alongside Fallon on Monday night’s episode where he’ll deliver the monologue, riff, play games and interview the other guest, comedian Jim Jefferies. However, Grohl won’t be the musical guest, which will be Blake Shelton. This is the latest in what’s been a busy 2021.

During their appearance, the rock veterans performed “All the Good Ones”. The track is a melodic ballad that wouldn’t be too out of place with Rivers Cuomo and company’s previous catalog, except for the heavier ’80s hard rock-inspired guitar riffs. “Rock and roll sounds better in the car,” he sang passionately on Fallon. “I just love the way she plays guitar/ When she dives down on the whammy bar/ She’ll be stuck on repeat, repeat in my head.” Van Weezer was released last week and was previewed by singles like...

The track, which appeared on her 2020 Spanish-language album Sin Miedo (del Amor y Otros Demonios), took on a viral life of its own on TikTok and has since become the R&B singer’s most iconic song. She released a video for it last month that showed off her hometown of Pereira, Colombia, and she gave it the full dramatic treatment for her Tonight Show appearance. She began the performance while reclining on a granite staircase, encircled by white rotating spheres and cast in the glow of the moonlight. It’s a dream...
