The Network Perform “Threat Level Midnight” on Fallon: Watch

Last month, Green Day revived their secret new wave side-project The Network for the release of a brand new album. Entitled Money Money 2020 Part II: Told Ya So!, it marked their first new album under the moniker in some 17 years. On Friday night, the group supported its release with a late-night TV appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Part of The Network’s bit is that they refuse to acknowledge themselves as Green Day, and any insinuation that they are is met with am explicit rebuttal from both the band and their fans. (This post, for example, will no doubt generate a litany of comments from Green Day fans informing us that The Network is not Green Day). To add their mythology, The Network’s members use aliases — Fink, Van Gough, The Snoo, and Bal...

Foo Fighters Perform “Waiting on a War” on Fallon: Watch

Foo Fighters were guests on Monday night’s edition Jimmy Fallon, promoting their new album, Medicine at Midnight. After frontman Dave Grohl chatted it up with the Tonight Show host, the band performed their single “Waiting on a War”. The track is a stirring piece of a hopeful anxiety, with low synths and bass underscoring a tension that waits until the very end to break. As such, this wasn’t a face-melting rock show of a late night performance, with Foo Fighters instead delivering a relatively simple run-through of the song in a purple-lit set. That said, it’s a powerful enough song to still grab you even in such a straightforward set up — especially once Taylor Hawkins and the band got to rip into it during the outro. Prior to taking the remote stage with the rest of the Fighters, Gr...

Here’s Why Jimmy Fallon Doesn’t Want to Sing Backup on Justin Timberlake’s Next Record

Jimmy looks off-camera, shocked, before saying (obviously), “Yeah!” “OK, done,” Timberlake said. “What? Did this just happen? We can’t edit this out! We have to leave this in the show!” Fallon says. “But I’m going to treat you the same way that I did right before we did the first Bee Gees sketch we ever did,” Timberlake says of their beloved “Barry Gibb Talk Show” skit on Saturday Night Live. Watch the clip below to see exactly what that means, and you can watch the full interview on NBC at 11:35 p.m. ET on The Tonight Show, where Ozuna and Anuel AA are the night’s musical guests.

The Roots and Jimmy Fallon Perform Olivia Rodrigo‘s ‘Driver’s License’ as a Sea Shanty

Singing like a 19th-century pirate is one of the latest and oddest TikTok trends, and Jimmy Fallon and The Roots jumped on board (arggg) with their version of Olivia Rodrigo‘s viral hit “Driver’s License” in the style of a sea shanty. For the unfamiliar, a sea shanty is a traditional folk song once commonly sung as a work song to accompany rhythmical labor on board merchant sailing vessels. But you knew that. The Tonight Show host and his house band were in serious harmony on the song, which, in Rodrigo’s original form, has logged over 200 million listens on Spotify since it premiered on Jan. 8. Rodrigo recently spoke to SPIN about her “insane” success. The current shanty trend is credited to Nathan Evans, a 26-year-old postal worker and aspiring musician from Scotland.  On Dec.&...

The Voidz and Dua Lipa Perform, Paul McCartney Guests on Fallon: Watch

Thursday night was a busy one over on The Tonight Show, as Jimmy Fallon welcomed Paul McCartney, The Voidz, and Dua Lipa. Each musician was there in a different capacity, with Macca serving as the featured interview. The Beatle discussed his new album, McCartney III, which came together while he was locked down with the family of his eldest daughter, Mary.  “I’d have a drink before dinner… and the kids are running around. And once one of them would say, ‘What’d you do at the studio today?’ And I’d say, ‘Ah,’” the legendary artist recalled. “Pull my phone out, get the little boom box going, and I’d play it to them. So they got a preview of the whole album a day at a time. It made it kind of more fun, really. It was like I was just making it for them.” He also touched briefly on a...

Jimmy Fallon Truly Captures Harry Styles’ Mystique in Hilarious ’73 Questions’ Parody

Harry Styles appears on the December 2020 issue of Vogue, rocking a skirt as the first solo man to appear on the cover in the magazine’s 127-year run. One of Vogue’s most popular series is its “73 Questions” video segment, in which a camera crew follows celebrities around their home as they answer, you guessed it, 73 questions. While Styles has yet to participate in the series, Jimmy Fallon imagined what it would be like on a new episode of The Tonight Show. Dressed as the One Direction singer with his loose wavy hair and a pearl-decorated sweater, Fallon answers the cameraman’s very simple questions with hilariously ethereal, philosophical responses. {“nid”:”9486150″,”type”:”post”,”title”:”Ever...

Chance the Rapper Admits His Dad Didn’t Initially Approve of His Career Choice

Chance the Rapper dropped by The Tonight Show on Monday (Nov. 16) for a chat, some playtime and a perform with G Herbo. Seated in a big red couch at the CRC studio, the Chicago hip-hop star opened up on his journey, his origins as an artist (yes, he was once known as Chano), family, virtual concerts and more. His dad, we learned, wasn’t initially a fan of Chance’s career choice. “In the beginning, he did not want me to be a rapper,” he said with a laugh. That’s all changed. The three-time Grammy winner also joined in for something fun, a game of “Kid Raps.” Chance and Jimmy Fallon put some life into lyrics, written by viewers’ kids based on the lyrics to the hip-hop star’s songs. There was “Juice,” “Brain Cells” ...

Kevin Parker is keeping Tame Impala fans satiated through the ongoing live concert drought with a steady stream of remote performances. Last night he was the featured artist on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, returning to play “Borderline” from his hit album The Slow Rush. He was joined by his two constituents, Jay Watson and Don Simper, who he collectively dubs the “Tame Impala Soundsystem.” The trio patched in from Parker’s now-signature VHS-camcorder, showcasing his smooth vocals alongside a plethora of synthesizers, keyboards, and drum machines.
