Benedict Cumberbatch and Jimmy Fallon played a game of Mad Libs on The Tonight Show yesterday and turned it into a play. A play that took place in a NYC police station’s interrogation room with Doctor Strange as the cop and the NBC late night host as the criminal. But there was nothing criminal about this bit. Well there is one thing, how much of crime it is to laugh this hard!
Two of the Three Amigos were on The Tonight Show yesterday and Jimmy Fallon tripped Martin Short. That caused him to fall in such a way he couldn’t stop rolling. Then when rolled by Steve Martin, he too fell and started to somersault uncontrollably. Therefore, they started rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling and rolling until eventually they reconnected with the NBC host for a punchline. Was it worth it? Yes because the two Martins will have us rolling on the floor with laughter just like what they were doing.
For decades there has been an old lyricist’s tale of what In The Air Tonight is about, and the other night Phil Collins told Jimmy Fallon what it is truly about.
If you are like me, you have heard a something along the version that either the Genesis singer saw someone drown by the hands of a murderer and didn’t do anything or that his brother was died by drowning and no one saved him. Is it one of those scenarios?`
It is not, he revealed on The Tonight Show, “I was just pissed off, you know, I was angry.” The NBC host wanted to know what made him angry. The drummer told him, “You go through a divorce and sometimes it is like ‘Please, I love you, I love you, I love you…Don’t hang up. Don’t hang up’ And then it is like well, ‘F you!’ And then of course that is when a song like In The Air Tonight comes out. There is obviously a lot of anger in there.”
The anger I got, the going through a fight with an ex-wife I didn’t. I think I will stick with the original theories, especially after listening him perform the song with The Roots on the show.
Which story behind the song have you heard? Which one are going with? Do you wish you didn’t know truth? Just like when someone told you that The Vapors’ Turning Japanese is not about masturbation. That one still pissed me off.

One time when Kevin Hart was on The Tonight Show, Jimmy Fallon took him on a roller coaster ride much to displeasure of the comedian. Yesterday, when he was on the NBC late night show, the host took him the scariest Haunted House in NY and scared sh!tless they were. So much so, Hart even admitted that he farted which in translation means you know what.
Was the What Now star upset over being taken to a scary place? Considering he told his friend to go f*ck himself, I would think so. I wonder what torture Fallon will put him through next? I know I can’t wait to find out.
Jimmy Fallon challenged Kevin Hart to a game of Would You Rather and The Tonight Show host regretted playing that game. Not just because he lost, but because of the prize he got for losing. He either had to pick up several squirming worms for 10 seconds or eat a cricket. The NBC late night host chose the latter and his face says it all. Even though he swallowed the bug, anyone who has eaten one knows their little legs get stuck between your teeth. It is the gift that keeps on giving.
