Oh my, what shocking news. Former Saturday Night Live star Jimmy Fallon has been signed to replace Conan O’ Brien after Conan leaves to take over Jay Leno very soon. Jimmy Fallon quietly signed a deal with NBC without the public knowing about it. Jimmy is expected to start hosting “The Late Show” in February of 2009.

Jimmy Fallon now has the opportunity to perform his own comedy parodies and songs live on the show with his acoustic guitar more.

I’m happy it’s not going to be Carson Daly or Jimmy Kimmel or anybody like that.

Jimmy Fallon is the man!
