13 swoon-worthy throwback photos of Jimmy Fallon that will make you squeal oh em gee
Jimmy Fallon is now the biggest name in late night television. He’s set to host the 2017 Golden Globe Awards. His comedy skits from The Tonight Show go viral instantly. Even our dads, who are all comedy history buffs say that he’s the most talented sketch writer/performer to come along since Jack Parr. No, since Johnny Carson! DADS! Stop fighting!
Anyway, he’s become a mega household name and everybody loves him, including us. Like, thumpa thumpa thump, all caps LOVE. But we remember when he was just a little adorable totally crushable kid on SNL. He was cast in 1998 at the fresh young age of 24. And we recently started looking up images of him from those days, and now we CANNOT STOP.
1. At a taping on Saturday Night Live in 1999. That face. ?
