10 Times Jimmy Fallon Slayed Late Night Television

Facebook/Fallon Tonight

Chances are, if you know me well, you know two things:

1. My insatiable love for jalapeño cream cheese

and

2. My insatiable love for Jimmy Fallon.

An SNL alum and current late-night-television host, Fallon has become a giant inspiration for me as a comedian and person. He's an incredible example of how to not let the industry ruin you and how to simply be funny. I am so honored to carry a mix of Jimmy Fallon's and Tina Fey's name - Feyllon - for my college's theatre honor society. In honor of Jimmy, I've decided to find the 10 times where Jimmy Fallon absolutely slayed late night TV.

1. Drink-o

A game on his current hosting gig, "The Tonight Show," Fallon introduced a game that is a cross between beer-pong and plinko...you get the idea.

2. Being completely honest about his finger injury...

I think the video speaks for itself...

3. ...and his hand injury.

Oh, Jimmy.

4. Pup-Quiz

Another popular game on "The Tonight Show," Fallon literally gets adorable golden retriever puppies, two reclining chairs, and trivia for one adorable game.

5. Covers with The Roots

One of the greatest hip-hop bands of all time, the Roots are the in-house Tonight Show band. Together, the Roots and Jimmy do lots of covers of hit songs...with children's toys.

6. The Barber-Shop Quartet ("Ragtime Gals")

From "Ignition" to "Talk Dirty To Me," these guys have done just about everything.

7. Game of Desks

This parody of hit HBO show "Game of Throne's" just about destroyed the "late-night-television" game.

8. "Ew!"

Based off of a fan's reaction to a bit on the show, Jimmy's famous skit-series "Ew!" features many notable actors Zac Efron and even the First Lady, Michele Obama.

9. Musical Impressions

If you close your eyes you may freak out by how similar they sound.

10. Lip Sync Battles

The King of Lip Sync Battles, Fallon and Emma Stone's head-to-head sing (sort of) off went viral. Check it out!

By the small chance that Jimmy Fallon would ever read this, thank you for all the laughs you've brought to me and millions of others!

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

Humans and robots face off in a rock band battle with guitars and drums, under dynamic lighting.

StableDiffusion

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
