Justin Bieber kissing a mannequin head on the Jimmy Fallon Show
Justin Bieber stopped by the NBC studios of Jimmy Fallon on Tuesday night to talk about his new “Believe Acoustic” album.
Well, he didn’t really “stop by” seeing as he was already just a few floors away working on this weekend’s gig as host and musical guest on “Saturday Night Live”.
Justin Bieber on Jimmy Fallon
Jimmy and Bieber talked about riding horses and the fact that all his friends have “Lil” or “Big” in front of their names...
Bieber also talked about his white Ferrari car and the ongoing problem he has with the police pulling him over all the time!
But the ONE thing the did not talk about was Justin's pot smoking problems...
After wrapping up the interview with Jimmy about his new album the two played a strange game of basketball were Bieber French kissed a mannequin head before tossing it into the basket…
Jimmy Fallen and Stephen Colbert are feuding over the almighty dollar – charity dollars that is.
It seems that Fallen and Colbert, who claim they have been best friends for six months, got into an on air battle for donations to the charity Donors Choose.
Colbert challenged Fallon’s fans to raise $26,000 for the charity, saying that Fallon would match any donations. Fallon, on the other hand, said he never made that claim.
The feud culminated in an amazing run of giving when Fallon and NBC were able to raise $86,000.
But why was Stephen Colbert so dead set against Fallon’s efforts?
Because Colbert agreed to appear on Jimmy’s show and sing the Rebecca Black smash hit single song “Friday” with the “Roots” if he lost.
Well… Colbert lost, and the result was one of the best pieces of comedy television that we’ve ever seen.
Colbert started singing alone, and then was joined by an auto-tuned rap by Fallon, and then American Idol winner Taylor Hicks piled on, and finally the Jimmy Fallon Dancers rounded out the number.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the most embarrassing loss for charity in late night history.

Jimmy Fallon and President Obama slow jam the news
Jimmy Fallon had a very special guest on his show last night.
Fallon was broadcasting his NBC show from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, North Carolina and nobody was quite sure what to expect from funny man Fallon.
President Barack made an appearance and talked about student loan debt and the crisis with the current grant programs, but the funny moments came earlier in the show when Jimmy and Obama did a “Slow Jam the News” skit – and it was hilarious!
POTUS in the house!
Fallon is always funny but to “get” the President of the United States Barack Obama makes me think NBC is pulling out all the stops to try and increase ratings.
Austin Mahone sings "Silent Night" on Jimmy Fallon
Teen singer Austin Mahone showed his fans, and the world, that he is perfectly capable of performing amazing and touching Christmas songs as well as hit pop tunes like “Banga Banga.”
Mahone appeared on the Jimmy Fallon show Friday night to do a rendition of “Silent Night” that actually gave us chills…..
Meat Loaf was there to talk with Jimmy about his time on Celebrity Apprentice and learning how to deal with crazy man Gary Busey and nut job Donald Trump.
Last night, Justin Bieber stopped by NBC’s 30 Rock to visit Jimmy Fallon and talk about his new women’s perfume “Someday”.
Well, it wasn’t as much talk as it was funny SNL type commercial parody.
Jimmy and the Biebs did a parody commercial for “Someday” where Bieber says; someday… we’ll be together… Someday I’ll fall in love… Someday I’ll be older…
And someday, I’ll be fat and look like this.
That’s when Fallon appears in his “Bieber” costume.
The skit was shot in black and white and shows Bieber looking at Fallon and wondering how he got to looking that bad.
It is hilarious.
Watch Justin Bieber on the Jimmy Fallon Show
Justin has been doing up New York this week with appearances on the David Letterman Show reading the Top Ten List, and visiting the ladies at The View for a little Segway racing.
Well, nobody ever said running for President was easy - just ask Rick Perry.
After Perry’s disastrous display at the last presidential debate where he FORGOT the third government agency he would close down, the late night comedy world took aim at him for a few laughs.
First, David Letterman did a hilarious Rick Perry Top Ten List of Excuses.
One of the funniest lines was “Hey, you try concentrating with Mit Romney staring at you… that’s one handsome dude.”
Now there are two words we thought we would never hear in the same sentence – Justin Bieber and Rick Perry!
But the laughs didn’t stop there.
Jimmy Fallon also took to the makeup chair for one of his best parodies to date to spoof Perry and the other candidates in a new series of GOP presidential campaign ads.
But Fallon didn’t stop with Rick Perry. He also went after Michele Bachmann, Mit Romney, and Herman Cain.
Leave it to Fallon and Letterman to lampoon these guys and to say what so many of us would like to say - but just don’t have 2 million people listening to us.
So last June, Justin Bieber visited Jimmy Fallon’s late night show and the two did a funny spoof of Bieber’s “Someday” fragrance commercial during the perfumes official launch week.
What we DIDN’T see were the bloopers and out takes that happened behind the scenes during the filming of the segment.
This is hilarious stuff - and shows what really happens when you get two funny people together for a comedy spoof.
The parody commercial harkens back to Fallon’s days on Saturday Night Live and Bieber is a natural for this kind of humor.
The first video below is the ORIGINAL segment that aired in June of 2011 on Fallon’s show.
This next video shows the bloopers and outtakes that went on behind the scenes that were never aired – until now.
We love seeing this kind of behind the scenes footage and it definitely has Fallon’s days at SNL written all over it.
I don't know if any of you happened to see the Jimmy Fallon Show last night. The musical guest was Yoko Ono and The Plastic Ono Band with guitar lead by her son Sean Lennon.
Wow, all I can say is this woman sucks as a musician. I have never really liked her, but last night was beyond bad - I was actually embarrassed for her, the band and Jimmy Fallon.
Ono grunted out "Waiting For The D Train". Any really, grunt is giving her too much credit. The song basically consisted of grunts, wails, yells and rhythmic groans.
She seemed to always be singing flat - if you can grunt flat, and I could not understand one word.
I suppose she thinks it is some kind of interpretative singing, but really - it sucked. While the video below is not from the Jimmy Fallon Show, it is a live performance of the same song.
Justin Bieber on the David Letterman show June 21 2012
Justin Bieber and David Letterman went head to head last night over the Bieb’s new “Believe” tattoo.
During the taped segment, Letterman asked Bieber about his new tattoo and started to criticize the singer for having so many.
At one point, Bieber called Letterman “Grandpa” and made a reference to the “Sixteenth Chapel” instead of the Sistine Chapel which is located at the Vatican in Rome.
Letterman made a snide comment about the Canadian educational system and you could see the tension starting to intensify.
Leave it to the cast of “Glee” to break social norms.
This Tuesday night will be no different.
In an episode titled “Prom Queen”, the cast of “Glee” will take on "Dancing Queen" from Abba, "Rolling in the Deep" from Adele, and "Isn't She Lovely" from Stevie Wonder.
But the big news is they will also be doing a revamped version of the now infamous Rebecca Black song “Friday”.
Black released her version of “Friday” last month and the world flat out laughed it into fame - not because it was good, but because it was bad. So very very bad.
It was so bad that Jimmy Fallon and Stephen Colbert used it in a parody duet on Jimmy’s show after Colbert lost a bet.
But the “Glee Cast” actually nailed the song with their revised up-tempo version. I can actually imagine driving down the road with the windows open singing along with the beat. Okay, not really.
Just twenty four hours into the Mariah Yeater and Justin Bieber baby drama the story is not going away.
Los Angeles police have now said that they are looking into the fact that Bieber’s accuser, now 20-year-old Mariah Yeater, may have engaged in statutory rape with the then 16-year-old singer.
Yeater says she hooked up with JB in a private bathroom last year and had sex at the Staples Center after one of his concerts.
She claims in court documents that Bieber whisked her into a private bathroom and the two engaged in consensual sex that left her pregnant with now three month old Tristyn Anthony Markhouse Yeater.
California says it is a crime for an adult to have sex with anyone under eighteen years old. If the offender is no more than three years older than the victim it would result in a conviction of a misdemeanor charge punishable by up to a year in jail.
Mariah Yeater
Yeater has filed a paternity suit in California demanding Bieber take a blood and DNA test, and a court date of December 15th has been scheduled to hash out the details of what happens next.
Yeater is suing for $12,000 per month to cover child support for their son. She also told police,
“The intercourse only lasted about 30 seconds and Justin did not want to wear a condom. He apologized for his lack of stamina afterwards and then I was whisked away and I never saw him again. I tried to contact him through normal channels but nobody ever got back to me so I felt I had to go public.”
“These accusations are malicious, defamatory and demonstrably false. We will vigorously pursue all available legal remedies to defend and protect Justin against these allegations.”
But there are some people out there that believe this is all a big hoax, a joke, a ruse, a con job, a Bieber baby scam.
They say the story was devised long ago as a way to keep Bieber’s name in the news during his Christmas album release and help bolster his masculinity in a growing crowd of fans that are starting to believe the whole Selena Gomez girlfriend thing is a big fraud and Bieber is, well… less than manly.
The Bieb’s DID appear on the “Today” show Friday morning to try and crush the rumors by saying,
"I'd just like to say basically that none of those allegations are, like, true. I know that I'm going to be a target, but I'm, like, never going to be a victim. It's, like, crazy, every night after the show I've gone right from the stage right to my car, so it's, like, crazy that some people want to make up such false allegations. To set the record straight, none of it is true."
Bieber told Matt Lauer, “I don’t know that women and I have never met her.”
But that didn’t keep the late night comedy world from taking a stab at the humorous aspect of the story.
In fact, Jimmy Fallon did a parody of the singers hit song “Baby” to explain to his fans what had happened.
We love it when Jimmy does a musical parody and this one will become a classic.
Funny stuff.
We have all seen how Justin and Selena Gomez act around each other – particularly their weekend romp in Hawaii earlier this year where photos emerged of Bieber grabbing Selena’s butt and the two sucking face in every photo.
Fans of Saturday Night Live and Andy Samberg should be happy today.
Samberg and his two comedy partners, Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone, have released their latest comedy album “Turtleneck & Chains”.
The album is available on iTunes and Amazon and features collaborations with Akon, Justin Timberlake, Snoop Dogg, Rihanna, Michael Bolton, Beck, Nicki Minaj, and Santigold.
Okay, for those of you who don’t know about Lonely Island, you may be surprised to know that you may have already seen them.
In fact, last week Samberg and company unleashed their power on Saturday Night Live with their video featuring Michael Bolton on “Jack Sparrow”.
And even if you didn’t watch SNL last week I know you have heard about the Justin Timberlake collaboration a couple of years ago with Samberg called “Dick in a box”. Sound familiar?
Samberg and company have done other tunes including “I just had sex”, “Jizz in my pants”, “Bing Bing Brothers”, “Mother Lover” and others.
The music videos started as digital shorts on SNL and have grown into the full blown comedy group known as the “The Lonely Island”.
Samberg credits his arrival on Saturday Night Live to late night host Jimmy Fallon. Andy was writing jokes for Fallon who asked him to audition for Lorne Michaels – and the rest is history.
Anyway, their new album is available today and the following video is from the title track “Turtleneck & Chains”
Justin Bieber visits with Wayne and Garth from SNL
A lot of celebrities who host SNL say it is the apex of their career - and it signifies the top of their game and popularity.
So when news broke that Justin Bieber is on deck to host Saturday Night Live during 2012 we had to wonder… will he be a good host? Can he bring the funny?
And we think the answer is a resounding YES!
In fact, Bieber has already proved he can be funny. Just ask Tina Fey from when she hosted SNL a while back and did a couple of funny sketches with Bieber.
See? We think he has the funny – and that sketch was from when Justin was only the musical guest for the night!
Bieber has also done funny parodies with Jimmy Fallen as well. Remember the “Someday” commercial parody?
Bieber DOES have a sense of humor - and he can be funny when he wants to.
In fact, we think Bieber would be an excellent host for SNL and we will definitely watch it.
Head Honcho Lorne Michaels and mega host Alec Baldwin say that not only will Bieber host during 2012 but he will ALSO be the night’s musical guest,
“The biggest names in the business are coming here thirty-something years after SNL's debut to host the show. Ben Stiller, Melissa McCarthy, who won the Emmy award, and Katy Perry’s coming and Jimmy Fallon, who’s double-dipping on your payroll, Jonah Hill, and I don’t want to ruin any other names, but Justin Bieber’s confirmed, he’s the musical guest and the host.”
This could be good. We see possible sketches about the pregnant mom and baby scare, Belieber problems, Selena problems, tattoo overload, and others.
It almost seems endless!
Kudos Justin. A hosting gig on Saturday Night Live is well deserved and we’re sure you’ll do great!
In what can only be described as major bad news for the NBC network, reports are surfacing that BOTH Meredith Vieira and Matt Lauer say they will be leaving the Today show later this year.
Some are wondering if the network can survive yet another high profile departure after the blow from Alec Baldwin yesterday that “30 Rock” is over.
When asked about the speculation, NBC press handlers said,
“There seems to be an awful lot of speculation around news anchors these days, and it’s not our practice to comment on any of it. Matt Lauer has a long term contract with NBC News and ‘Today. ”
True. But both host contracts are due to expire at the end of this year, and “ET” reported that Lauer had been telling everybody he planned to move on once his contract expired in December. And TV Guide was reporting earlier this week about Meredith’s desire to exit the show.
TV Guide says Vieira has been in discussions with NBC executives for several months about extending her contract, but she is said to be exhausted with the demanding early hours and is ready to move on.
Vieira also said that the health of her husband, who has battled multiple sclerosis and cancer, will be a factor in considering her future on the program.
It doesn’t appear that there is any personal friction between the two hosts, in fact they seem like they get along pretty well, even in live embarrassing moments like when Matt Lauer’s divorce turned into laughs on the show.
On critic stated,
“Of course NBC is going to deny it. They just lost ’30 Rock’ and now their morning news lineup is falling apart.”
There has been some speculation that Vieira, Lauer, Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin are gracefully trying to exit the network before the Comcast NBC Universal deal begins to impact daily operations.
One insider commented,
“Comcast is going to chop up every bit of content they can mine from NBC and either charge for it or try to keep others from embedding it on the internet. The days of being able to freely use NBC content are over.”
THAT seems to make more sense than anything else – the big stars want to get behind NBC before the Comcast takeover is complete because they see what the future will look like and they don’t want any part of it.
But it could also be the oldest ploy in the Hollywood playbook – act like you’re going to leave just before your contract expires so they will offer you more money for the next season.
Somehow, in a sad way, that seems to make the most sense of all.
After announcing that Ashton Kutcher will be joining the cast starting next season, CBS and Warner Brothers made the first move in changing the shows external look.
Maintenance workers removed the giant “Two and a Half Men” banner from the studios exterior and replaced it with a more generic banner.
We suspect as soon as CBS gets Ashton Kutcher cleaned up they will install a new banner showcasing the current cast including Jon Cryer and Angus T. Jones.
And there is also a bit of news about the new seasons plot and how Sheen may be written out of the show.
TMZ says they talked with a production insider and the dirty deed may actually play off perfectly from the last show of last season.
This was the last episode Sheen filmed before going all tiger blood on us, where he had just purchased two tickets to Paris and was going to take Rose – and ask her to marry him.
Insiders say executive producer Chuck Lorre is planning to use the flight to Paris as the exit for Charley – and that it will NOT be a plane crash.
While subject to change, and it probably will, Uncle Charley just may decide to stay in Paris and say goodbye to Malibu.
There are still a few plot twists that need to be worked out like what happens to the beach house, and how does Rose get back to California while leaving Charley in France.
After all, the show will be better without Sheen but suck if Rose can’t still play in the sand box.
