James Thomas Fallon (Jimmy Fallon) is a famous American comedian, actor, singer, musician, host of The Evening Show on NBC, which is compared with the equally well-known Russian analogue of Evening Urgant. In addition to working on television, the actor acts in films, and on his account there are already a dozen films, in some of which he plays himself.
Fallon's fame did not come immediately. For a long time, the audience did not want to accept him, and critics constantly spoke negatively about his work. But his hard work, dedication and natural charisma allowed James to become a real star of American television.
Childhood and early creativity
The boy was born in the United States in 1974, on September 19th. From early childhood, he was fond of music and often attended concerts that his father gave right in front of the house for his friends and neighbors.
Jimmy's family was very religious, and the children, and there were two of them, had to put up with a huge number of prohibitions and strict adherence to the rules that their parents taught them. At the school where the boy studied, a lot of attention was also paid to religion and the appropriate upbringing of children. This had a very strong influence on the boy, who already in childhood began to dream about how he would serve God and the church.
A few years later, Jimmy became a participant in one of the school plays, and he enjoyed performing so much that he decided to go to study acting. The boy enrolled in a theater group, and gradually the theater captured him entirely. He increasingly appeared on stage, participating in all school productions, trying himself in all genres and images. He soon discovered that he could easily invent and tell funny stories from the stage, arrange various pranks, show humoresques and parody celebrities. So Jimmy discovered a new talent - a comic actor, which he successfully realized in his adult life.
Friends began to call him "clown", some jokingly, and some seriously, but Fallon did not take offense at anyone. He was convinced that his talent would help him become a star on the stage. But he did not immediately become an actor.
After graduating from high school, the young man continues his education at a technical college. But he quickly got bored with studies and Jimmy begins his creative career. He still received a higher education, but this happened only many years after he left college.
Television career
Deciding to start a career in show business, Fallon turns to an agent to find him a job on television. Soon he was invited to one of the humorous programs, where he performed short monologues and funny parodies and scenes. At first, these performances did not bring success, but he was able to earn some money. Plus, this helped the young actor gain experience of performing in front of the audience and the first fans of his talent.
Jimmy dreamed of working on television in the most popular show "Saturday Night", but did not even imagine how soon he could become its host. He was invited, not without the help of his agent, to audition and was first approved for the role of a guest actor, and then, having liked the directors and the audience, he entered the film crew.
Jimmy's career was very successful, but in 2004, surprisingly to everyone, he leaves the program and begins to try himself in the cinema. However, soon he nevertheless returned to television and began to host one of the most beloved programs by viewers - "The Evening Show", which later became known as "The Evening Show with Jimmy Fallon."
Personal life
Thanks to his charismatic appearance, Jimmy has never been deprived of female attention. But in 2007, he announced his marriage to Nancy Juvonen. Jimmy's wife is a television producer. The couple is happily married and they are raising two children.
