In a rather hairy episode of 'The Tonight Show', comedian and host Jimmy Fallon tried out rapper Doja Cat's Yeti-inspired Coachella costume. “You were the coolest,” Fallon fawned over the 'Say So' rapper during her appearance on his show in May last year. “You brought me the outfit to look at but I was like… Maybe I can just try it on.” As per People magazine, Fallon went on to play a clip from the eccentric rapper's Coachella performance, which featured her singing 'Demons' as dancers dressed as Yeti twirled in the background. This prompted the 'Candy' singer to put Fallon in a shaggy jacket, wig, and beard. As the two took to the dance floor, the audience burst into fits of laughter. 



 

“Is that how you do this?” Fallon inquired, to which Doja answered, “I like that. That’s creative.” According to Entertainment Weekly, she went on to reveal that she would also use the wig act during the European leg of her 'Scarlet' tour. “I wanted it to be kind of modeled after hair,” she shared. “That’s the theme, hair. So it’s gonna be a very hairy show, that’s basically it.” Doja ended up being the first female rapper to headline the annual musical fete last year.

As per NBC News, during the segment, Fallon also asked Doja about her first stage appearance. The 'Angora Hills' singer shared that she was 'pulled on stage' when she was just five. She recalled going to a concert with her mother. "I went to the Getty Center [in L.A.], and there was Earth, Wind & Fire playing. It sounds like a lie, but I was pulled up onstage because we were in the front."

Recently, the veteran comedian also donned First Lady Melania Trump's inaugural outfit, parodying her 'Hamburglar' hat. As per Newsweek, he asked his audience to vote for who wore the wide-brimmed hat better. "After this, we're going to play who wore it better? Me, Melania, or the Hamburglar?" he mocked in his opening monologue. He added, "It's Melania's very own border wall. It makes sense. Melania didn't want to ruin his makeup, so...," referring to President Donald Trump's orange makeup and Melania's habit of snubbing her husband's kisses in public.

Speaking of Fallon and outfits, in 2023, the comedian also compiled a list of last-minute Halloween costume ideas. "Wear a Lakers jersey plus carry a burger equals Shake Shaq," the television host read from impressive tweets sent by the viewers. Another interesting post he read suggested wearing boxing gloves and a Hawaiian shirt to look like a Hawaiian fruit punch. "Wear a Memphis Grizzlies jersey and cover your nose in baby powder equals Cocaine Bear," he further noted, referring to the hit indie film by the same name. His favorite however turned out to be a white shirt with 'Error 404: Costume not found' written on it.
