In December 2021, he premiered the song \u201cIt Was a Masked Christmas\u201d along with Megan Thee Stallion and Ariana Grande.<\/p>\n<p>While introducing the song, the comedian said that the previous holiday was \u201cterrible,\u201d but that \u201cthings are going to get better soon.\u201d The song urged listeners to \u201cget in line for a booster\u201d to avoid being lonely like they were in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was a masked Christmas, we stayed in the house\/We covered our nose, and covered our mouth,\u201d the chorus said. \u201cBut it\u2019s Christmas time\/We\u2019ll be in line for a booster.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The accompanying music video showed hand sanitizer squirting over everything, including a turkey at the dinner table.<\/p>\n<p>Also in December 2021, President Joe Biden called into Fallon\u2019s late-night show to tell viewers it was \u201cpatriotic\u201d to get vaccinated against COVID-19.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe COVID problem, I don\u2019t know what else to do and how else to tell people to get the vaccine,\u201d Fallon said. \u201cAt this point, just, I think people are going to do what they will, I guess, I don\u2019t know what to say, but is it the youth that we have to \u2014 hope the kids get us out of this? Because, I mean, I got vaccinated, I got boosted, I got \u2014 whatever you want.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Biden said maybe the \u201cMasked Christmas\u201d song would inspire more people to get vaccinated.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cThe Tonight Show\u201d host Jimmy Fallon is getting mocked for a silly song he wrote about the newest COVID variant, which he sang \u201cmight be the best.\u201d\u00a0 \u201cIt\u2019s a new strain, but it isn\u2019t the same,\u201d he says of XBB.1.5. \u201cSounds more like Elon Musk\u2019s kid\u2019s name.\u201d The comedian debuted the song Saturday night. \u201cPut &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":345,"featured_media":1800255,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[541],"tags":[5696,4127,5895,6303,6202,14118,4781,9216,10787,5766,6195],"class_list":["post-1800252","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-daily-wire","tag-5696","tag-covid","tag-cringe","tag-cult","tag-daily","tag-fallon","tag-jimmy","tag-mocked","tag-song","tag-variant","tag-wire"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1800252","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/345"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1800252"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1800252\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1800255"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1800252"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1800252"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1800252"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
