“The NBC family adores Jimmy, but Bob is monitoring the situation”. “If he needs to intervene, it will be done”, the source adds.
Jimmy ended up in Massachusetts General Hospital after he tripped over a girl who had kneeled down in front of him. During the week of October 12-16, The Tonight Show beat The Late Show by a margin 56%.
“The best part of the whole thing… on the way out there’s a gift shop where you can buy a T-shirt for $200”, Fallon joked. He trips, injures his hand, and we travel through New York in the back of an ambulance in a mad rush to save his hand… potentially all caused by his love for partying.
In describing the ride to Questlove, Fallon simply said “Do you know the Harry Potter rides and all that stuff?” How could we create a compelling guest experience that emerged organically from the world of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon? “First to make their opponent drink five shots wins”, Fallon says. “This hand is already gone, so I threw the bottle and then I just landed on broken glass”. Oh, yeah! Pools of blood everywhere. Even though he’s managed to keep it from interfering with his work until now, network bosses don’t like the attention his booze-related accidents are getting.
Claire Mercuri, a rep for the TV host, said that Fallon is “totally fine” but declined to elaborate further on the accident.

Thrill seeking fans will have to wait to take the ride. Instead of Hogwarts, it’s New York City. Whether or not this is an indication that he has a drinking problem is yet to be seen. “Portlandia” and Sleater-Kinney star Carrie Brownstein revealed her true passion, traditional English folk ballads, and shared one backstage: Carrie Underwood was on “Jimmy Kimmel Live”, talking about dressing up her baby for Halloween and baby-proofing her tour bus.
