Jimmy Fallon's August 2022 MTV VMAs rough beard debut sent fans into a frenzy, and the 'Tonight Show' host also revealed the unexpected source of his new facial hair.
Fallon, 48, traveled to Tennessee to work with Dolly Parton on the NBC holiday spectacular "Dolly Parton's Mountain Magic Christmas."
"I’m there with Dolly Parton. She’s the coolest. And she has all these pictures of all her albums, and it’s like 200-something albums she did, a lot of them with these old cowboys (with) decent beards," Fallon shared, as per Today.
"And I go, I never really tried to get a real beard — you know, like, went for it," he noted. "Because it’s patchy and it takes a long time."
When Fallon left Dollywood, it seemed that he was still deciding whether or not to start shaving, but an unlikely encounter with a different great artist while out to dinner with his wife, Nancy Juvonen, was the tipping point.
"Who’s at the dinner? Paul McCartney, and he had a beard," Fallon stated. "And I go, this is a sign from God. God is telling me to grow a beard."
