Rumors of Jimmy Fallon’s death have been greatly exaggerated.
Elon Musk’s disastrous changes to Twitter have transformed it into a dumpster fire full of impersonation and disinformation over the past couple of weeks, making the platform fertile with opportunity for pranks and trolling. One high-profile butt of said jokes was Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon, who some may have thought dead after Twitter’s chaotic denizens made the hashtag #RIPJimmyFallon trend.
Fallon is, of course, still alive and well, and demonstrated as such by bringing out a gospel choir to join him in a musical number.
“Ladies and gentlemen, I’ve been to the other side!” said Fallon, mimicking a charismatic Christian preacher. “I’ve seen the pearly gates! I paid eight dollars for that blue checkmark in the sky!“
