Late night talk show host Jimmy Fallon has continued his string of musical parodies with a not so surprising addition. On last night’s Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, Mr. Fallon did a dead-on spoof of Eddie Vedder from the grunge band, Pearl Jam, singing the popular song, Jeremy. There was just one difference this time around. Instead of singing about the troubled youth, Jeremy, and all of his problems, this was a tribute to New York Knicks’ basketball sensation, Jeremy Lin.
The song included lyrics such referring to Mr. Lin beating Los Angeles Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant in a recent game, his comparison to Tim Tebow, and turning down a date with Kim Kardashian. There was also the mention of his Harvard roots in the song.
You can view the clip here on the official NBC Late Night web blog.
Late Night With Jimmy Fallon airs 12:37am locally on WEYI NBC 25, Monday-Friday Late Nights. It also airs the following day on hulu.com and on nbc.com.
