Jimmy Fallon kicked off a full week of live episodes of “The Tonight Show” on Monday via a duet with rapper Megan Thee Stallion for a sequel to her hit track “Hot Girl Summer.”
“Hot Girl Summer” was released on Aug. 9, perhaps slightly too late to be considered the song of Summer 2019 even if “Old Town Road” didn’t exist. But Megan Thee Stallion is dope enough that there’s no reason why a sequel couldn’t become the official song of fall — especially given that midnight Tuesday marks the official beginning of the season.
Fallon and Megan rolled out a video for “Hot Girl Fall” on Monday’s episode of NBC’s late-night show. The song reminds people that autumn is “the season to get cozy with a pumpkin-ass beer,” and also to “grab a cable-knit scarf and your chunkiest sweater, ’cause the summer was dope, but the fall even better.”
The “Tonight Show” will be live all week long. Other performances throughout the week will include Mark Ronson featuring Yebba, Bastille and Carole King, plus a performance of The Beatles’ “Yellow Submarine” featuring guest Ringo Starr alongside Fallon and The Roots.
Jimmy Fallon's 9 Most Memorable 'Classroom Instruments' Moments, From Carly Rae Jepsen to the Backstreet Boys (Videos)
Carly Rae Jepsen was featured in the first "Classroom Instruments" segment on June 8, 2012. At the time, the segment was presented as an opportunity for The Roots to showcase their musicianship by playing a stripped-down rendition of the Canadian pop star's hit single "Call Me Maybe."
This is another great take on an instant classic. Maybe it's best that Jimmy never tried to hit Adele's high notes in this one.
The Muppets piled into Jimmy Fallon's green room for the most adorable "Classroom Instruments" yet. Singing the "Sesame Street" theme was one of the segment's most memorable moments.
Metallica are the oldest group of rockers who have ever piled into the show's green room. Keep an eye on The Roots guitarist Captain Kirk Douglas doing overtime as he hammers away chords on his tiny ukulele.
This didn't go as viral as the original version of The Lonely Island's "I'm on a Boat," but this version gets points just for everyone's sailor outfits.
How do you do "All About That Bass" with no actual bass? Somehow Jimmy and Meghan Trainor still made this work.
What made this version of "Bad and Boujee" so different, besides them performing with keyboards, scissors and coffee pots, is that Migos, Fallon and The Roots dressed like characters from "Office Space." That alone makes this worth watching.
Is that Natalie Portman singing along with Jimmy and Sia? You gotta love Sia's monochromatic look that "The Tonight Show" cast went the extra mile to emulate.
For the most recent "Classroom Instruments," Jimmy Fallon performed with the Backstreet Boys for this version of "I Want It That Way."
