Ready for It? Jimmy Fallon Appears to Be Teasing a Taylor Swift Appearance on ‘The Tonight Show’

As fans of The Tonight Show know all too well, host Jimmy Fallon is a huge Taylor Swift fan. And in a video posted to his own and the late-night show’s social media accounts on Thursday (Sept. 25), the Swiftie may soon see the pop superstar take a seat on his couch.

The clip — captioned with a simple “Not a lot going on at the moment” — starts off with the comedian placing bets in a game of roulette, stacking his chips on black 10, black 6 and red 25. The wheel then spins, with the ball going round and round as an excited Fallon watches, until it finally lands on … black 13. “Ugh!” the frustrated TV personality sighs in exasperation. “Baby, that’s show business for you.”

As he walks around the offices of Rockefeller Center, a parade of decked-out showgirls complete with feathery headdresses and sequined costumes walks by with an “Excuse us, honey,” leaving a stunned Fallon behind.

So let’s break it down with some Swiftie math and an Easter egg hunt — something Fallon has done multiple times on his own show: The initial set of numbers were 10, 6 and 25, potentially indicating a show date of Monday, Oct. 6, which would be just three days after Swift’s upcoming new album, The Life of a Showgirl, drops. And 13, as any even casual Taylor Swift fan would know, is her favorite number. Follow that with his quote about show biz combined with the showgirls who saunter by? It’s all pretty convincing that the 14-time Grammy winner may be set for another appearance on NBC’s long-running late-night talk show.

Though neither The Tonight Show‘s nor Swift’s reps have confirmed the appearance, Swifties are convinced it’s happening after seeing Fallon’s video.

“TAYLOR SWIFT OCTOBER 6TH EXACTLY!!!” one person commented on the TikTok post.

“I LOVE WHEN JIMMY GETS IN ON THE EASTER EGGS YESSSS 😍😍😍,” added another on Instagram, while someone else commented, “Yess TAYINTERVIEW is backkkkk. It’s been a long time coming @jimmyfallon . Don’t forget to call Andrea up.”

In addition to this very likely Tonight Show appearance to promote The Life of a Showgirl, Swift is already confirmed to return to The Graham Norton Show on the album’s release day, Oct. 3. She’ll be appearing alongside Jodie Turner-Smith and Domhnall Gleeson.
