Jimmy Fallon Staffers Slam Boss In Rolling Stone
Huff PostLOADING ERROR LOADING “The Tonight Show” host Jimmy Fallon has been drunk, dismissive, mean and erratic to the point he drove some staffers to ponder suicide amid a toxic atmosphere, current and former employees told Rolling Stone in an exposé published Thursday. In a story with shades of the BuzzFeed News investigation that shattered the image of “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” Rolling Stone delivered a foul portrait of a man ― albeit a talented one ― via interviews with the workers, who did not identify themselves for the article. NBC via Getty Images Fallon has denied reports of having a drinking problem, but eight “Tonight Show” workers told Rolling Stone that his hangovers dictated how a day might go. Writers said Fallon turned criticism of a bit or a joke into a personal insult like, “Seriously, do you need help?” But when he allegedly berated an employee in front of a studio audience, a former NBC giant even bigger than him stepped in to make him apologize: Jerry Seinfeld.
