Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon Recap: Ryan Seacrest, Taraji P. Henson, and Maddie & Tae

On the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon host Ryan Seacrest, actress Taraji P. Henson, and country music duo Maddie and Tae.

American Idol is now airing its 14 season and of course Ryan Seacrest talked about his continued hosting of the show. Judges this year include Jennifer Lopez, Harry Connick Jr., and Keith Urban.

A Jimmy look-a-like recently auditioned and Ryan had to share the news. Due to facial hair and a headband Jimmy failed to see the comparison but he quickly made amends.

Ryan also discussed his daily radio show among other hosting gigs over the past few months. Both he and Jimmy also showed off their talent to impersonate former American Top 40 host Casey Kasem.

Taraji P. Henson also stopped by to discuss her new show Empire. But first everyone got together to play a game of charades and as usual the fun was non stop.

Empire is the new drama from FOX starring Terrance Howard and Naomi Campbell. The show follows the Lyon family and their lives in the world of Hip-Hop.

It has done well so far, enough to claim a renewal for a second season.
Tune in to FOX Wednesdays at 9 p.m right after American Idol.

Maddie and Tae made a live debut of their song "Fly" on the show. The country music duo fresh out of the Texas region are relative unknowns but thanks to a break out hit they were asked to be on the show.

Girl in a Country Song quickly shot up to #1 on the Billboard's Country Airplay.

A very musical themed episode tonight there is also news that Empire and American Idol both will cross over at some point. They both air back to back and are major hits for the network.
