Keeping true to his schedule, comedian Jerry Seinfeld just dropped a new episode of Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee earlier today with guest Fred Armisen. The Portlandia star showed the vet Seinfeld lead around the city he loves so dearly (so much so that he created a series about it with Sleater-Kinney lead Carrie Brownstein), Portland. And as usual, it certainly didn’t disappoint – especially because of that surprise bonus piece which included Michael Richards reprising his role as Crackle president Dick Corcoran. Read More »
Could "Glitter & Ribs" be 2015's first Top 10 hit for Taylor Swift? The pop superstar has a new song to record and, while it might not be on her hit 2014 album "1989," it was written for Tay-Tay specially by "Billy on the Street" host Billy Eichner ... and judging from the video below, it sounds perfect for the "Shake It Off" star. The only thing it needs is perhaps a mention of a 2015 dating rumor or taking down an ex-boyfriend like Ed Sheeran or Harry Styles. As Billy tells Conan, the song centers around the most perplexing and confusing aspect of relationships: "Taylor Swift is writing about the most important topic, which is what happens when your boyfriend doesn't text you back, and I think that's so essential, Conan!" As "Jezebel" points out, "Glitter & Ribs" "fits perfectly into her signature girl-meets-boy narrative," considering it contains lyrical gems like: "He was a boy / I was a girl / What more do you need to know? / He was a boy, he walked through the door / He was a door-walking-through boy" and "You'll never know my heart like my heart knows my heart."

So far it’s been a good day for Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon. Following some remarks and questions about he and BFF Justin Timberlake being “lovers” – a question asked by Martin Short’s Jiminy Glick character – it’s now being reported that the former Saturday Night Live star has welcomed in his second child with wife Nancy. Their newborn daughter was born via surrogate just as their first child, Winnie Rose, was back in July 2013. So we guess Jessica Biel and her baby bump have nothing to worry about, huh? Read More »
The current Ferguson protests - which began as a result of the "no indictment" decision against former Officer Darren Wilson surrounding the murder of unarmed teen Michael Brown - have caused quite a bit of stir in the news these days, especially after a number of St. Louis Rams players sported the "Hands Up, Don't Shoot" gesture during one of their games. And following the St. Louis police asking the NFL the apology for the gesture (in which the Rams' coach basically told them to screw off), there's been much discussion about "black-on-black" crime, something The Daily Show with Jon Stewart easily picked up on. To further the discussion, the Comedy Central hit brought in their Senior Black Correspondent, Larry Wilmore, who will replace Stephen Colbert with The Nightly Show when The Colbert Report ends.

What happens when "Wild" star Reese Witherspoon and Jimmy Fallon take to "The Tonight Show" to replace the lyrics of Christmas carols with random phrases like "Slimy toad, bumpy toad"? Hilarity, that's what. In the clip below, Witherspoon delivered a couple terrific performances, showing off the voice that won her an Oscar for her portrayal of June Carter Cash in 2005's "Walk the Line" ... but the star also forgets how to sing "Silent Night"! Luckily, she had Fallon to help guide her, and then the pair team up for an excellent Christmas crescendo. You can watch the clip here: Read More »
It has been the biggest of big years for "The Tonight Show" host Jimmy Fallon, having taken over NBC's flagship late night show from Jay Leno in February, spending 2014 interviewing almost every celebrity under the sun — from Bradley Cooper to Barbra Streisand — and then putting most of them in exceptionally funny situations and challenges. And now he has got an impressive accolade to top it off: "Entertainment Weekly's" 2014 Entertainer of the Year. That's according to "EW," which has named "Saturday Night Live"-alum Fallon its Entertainer of the Year and has the late night host on the cover of this week's magazine. With it comes a substantial feature interview with Jimmy Fallon, with plenty of examination as to how the married 40-year-old father of one has taken over the entertainment biz. In the highest praise possible, "EW" says that since taking over the "The Tonight Show," Fallon "turned the revered late-night franchise into the hottest party in town, a celebrity playpen full of games, music, surprise guests, games and good vibes all around."

And while they may not be saying much, we can’t deny the fact that it’s coming! The Total Recall actress was seen out in Los Angeles after lunch covering up that baby bump in a black puffer vest. And in case you weren’t aware… she looked fantastic, but that’s not surprising, of course. Biel’s pregnancy isn’t the only thing taking the headlines these days. Her husband and former N’Sync star has been rumored to be in a gay relationship with Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon during an interview with Jiminy Glick… aka Martin Short. Read More »
It’s finally here… comedian Bill Burr’s new stand up special!

If you’re looking for over eight minutes of awkward then look no further than the below video featuring comedian Jerry Seinfeld, YouTube personality Miranda Sings, Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon and Mulaney’s Martin Short playing a game of Pictionary on Fallon’s NBC show.
