‘The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon’: Seth Meyers on day drinking with Rihanna, 'the nicest person in the world'

When Meyers last appeared on Fallon’s show, he had talked about featuring Rihanna. When Fallon asked if his dream came true, Meyers spoke of his day-drinking outing with Rihanna.

What could be better than watching one of your favorite Late Night show hosts entertain you on a weeknight? Having two of them before you, of course! The latest episode of ‘The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon’ had comedian and Late Night show host Seth Meyers as one of the guests, in addition to Cobie Smulders and Tones and I. Not only was it a treat to watch Jimmy and Seth indulge in their usual chatter which left us in absolute splits. But their little tete-a-tete gave away a few interesting deets you ought to know.

When Meyers last appeared on Fallon’s show, he had talked about featuring Rihanna on his Late Night show. When Fallon asked if his dream came true, Meyers gushed and revealed what happened when he and Rihanna went drinking during the day.

Elaborating, he described the R&B queen as “the nicest person in the world." However, Meyers was surprised when he learned about Rihanna’s selfie skills upon going through some of the pictures on his phone, which the singer had captured during their day drinking stint.

When Fallon asked his guest if he was able to propose friendship to Rihanna, Meyers further added that he couldn’t gather the courage to even get her phone number. He said he wouldn’t want that as it’s dangerous to have her number on the phone, spending an entire day wondering what text would Rihanna find funny.

He briefly spoke about his stand-up comedy special titled ‘Lobby Bobby’, which premiered on Netflix last month. In the one-hour show, the Late Night host recounts the hysterical birth of his second child, who was delivered by his wife in the lobby.

Cobie Smulders who appeared next on Fallon's show spoke about hosting thanksgiving with her family, her recent work in films and her role in 'Stumptown' as Dex Pariose.
