Christina Aguilera x Jimmy Fallon x The Roots
Here’s what I missed on Jimmy Fallon’s episode of Late Night last night. As soon as I saw that Christina Aguilera was a guest, I thought I could pass, but covering her single “Your Body” with office supplies is pretty funny.
It’s just not as funny as them covering Carly Rae Jepsen’s “Call Me Maybe” with children’s instruments.

The Roots – How I Got Over

Carly Rae Jepsen – Call Me Maybe (Cosmic Dawn Radio Edit)
I still…kind of really like this song, but I especially enjoy this remix.
Also…Jimmy Fallon and The Roots!
It’s Another Jimmy Fallon Night
Somebody please tell me they just saw The Roots rapping about Polly Pockets on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.
This kind of stuff doesn’t happen everyday!
