Singapore– Late nights will never be the same again with the premiere of the The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on E!, NBCUniversal International Networks’ pop culture powerhouse. The Emmy Award favourite (2014 winner for “Best Interactive Program” and 2015 nominee for “Outstanding Variety Talk Series”) will air same-day as the U.S. beginning 2 October at 11pm (SGT).
For one full hour every Tuesday to Saturday, Fallon will keep audiences entertained with plenty of comedy, music, conversation and friendly competition with big-name guest stars, which have included Justin Timberlake, Ariana Grande, Julia Roberts, Tom Cruise and even Donald Trump. Fallon also brings along with him on set many popular segments, celebrity sketches and musical parodies that fans have grown to love including viral social media favourites Lip Sync Battles, Family Feud, #Hashtags and Thank You Notes.
Taking a cue from his unforgettable predecessors, including hosts Johnny Carson and Jay Leno, Fallon also carries on the tradition that audiences know and love – kicking off every show with the iconic Tonight Show monologue. Alongside the critically acclaimed and Grammy-winning house band The Roots, Fallon brings high-tempo energy to the storied Tonight Show franchise with his welcoming interview style, love of audience participation, spot-on impersonations and innovative sketches.
