Helen Mirren was on The Tonight Show yesterday and Jimmy Fallon commented on how proper her accent sounds. He then wanted to see if it sounded just as elegant if she downed some helium. When he asked her about it, her reaction is so precious you will love her even more. It was a like a little girl being all bashful when she is sweetly embarrassed about something.
Once she was done being all shy about the offer, she grabbed the balloon and tried it out. Even though her voice was high and squeaky, it still sounded dignified.
Only Mirren could make something like sucking on balloon seem classy. If I try it, I sound like an imbecile. How do you sound when you get into the helium?

Jimmy Fallon is the dreamy guy of late night, but yesterday he did something on The Tonight Show that will cause people to have nightmares including himself.
He introduced not one, not two, not three, not four but five wax versions of himself and together they sang Barbara Ann. To watch six stiffs sing the song like that is just as creepy as those mannequin ads from Old Navy; and remember how those commercials gave you nightmares? Well, the NBC late night brought that feeling back. Thankfully, he is suffering just as much as we are. The only one who got out of this unscathed is Questlove, so maybe he is the roots of all evil???

Last week, Kelly Clarkson made a joke that she has a problem finding a duet partner. Well Jimmy Fallon took her seriously and he decided to be the Kenny Rogers to her Dolly Parton or the Sonny Bono to her Cher. Yesterday, when she was on The Tonight Show, the two of them did not sing just one classic song from a duo. Instead they mashed up several duets to make one of the greatest duets of all time.
I say one of because there were two of the biggest duets missing from theirs. Those chart toppers are Ike & Tina Turner’s Proud Mary and Meat Loaf’s Paradise in the Dashboard Light. Who hasn’t sung the last song at a bar with a guy they just met there or with all of their drunk friends? I can’t remember a time in college when I didn’t. Can you?
Forgetting that, how rockin’ their duet? So much so, I hope they release an album full of duets called From Jimmy To Kelly!!!
We all know that Christina Aguilera can sing, that is why she got Grammys’ Best New Artist over Britney Spears. But did you know she can sing like Britney Spears? She does a better Britney than Britney. Yesterday on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon, she demonstrated her imitation skills and they will blow you away more than her high notes.
Not only can Xtina be Toxic, she can also turn back time to sound like her Burlesque co-star, Cher. Not impressed yet, she can shake her hips, I mean her voice, to sound like her Voice replacement Shakira.
She is so good, forget Neil Patrick Harris getting a Variety show on NBC; she should be the one getting one. Wouldn’t you tune in for it?
Did you know that Taylor Swift and Jimmy Fallon are notorious in NY Sports World? Not for their athletic ability, but because the two of them are always getting caught on the Jumbrotron shaking their groove things. Yesterday on The Tonight Show, the NBC late night shared their best of dancing moments and Cotton Eye Joe would be proud of their Do-Si-Do.
