Fallon was surprised when Grande got back to her a month later to not only record backing vocals, but to ask “Meg” - as in Thee Stallion - to rap about getting “boosters.” “And now the President is tweeting about it,” Fallon marveled. So, I was like, all of us learning zoom, how do we get the best reception in the house, you know?” He thought to reach out to Grande, but assumed she would be busy. So I was trying to think of all the things, anything that can make you smile, and everything we have been through in such a rough year.
I love holiday songs, and I wanted to do something topical. I just wrote it and I wanted to do something original. Said Fallon: “Two months ago, this song was nothing. “Tonight Show” host Jimmy Fallon may soon be rivaling Mariah Carey in the holiday hit parade with his new collaboration, “It Was A (Masked Christmas),” featuring Ariana Grande and Megan Thee Stallion.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK – DECEMBER 10: Laverne Cox attends iHeartRadio Z100 Jingle Ball 2021 on Decemin New York City. He happens to be an openly gay black man in hip-hop, and that is truly revolutionary.” There is something very zeitgeist-y about him that is really fantastic and provocative and that is what musicians have been doing for a really long time. The ‘Montero (Call Me by Your Name)’ video, I don’t think we have had that kind of controversy since Madonna’s ‘Like a Prayer.’ That’s what it felt like to me. A few months ago I said - this is on my Instagram - ‘this is officially a Lil Nas X account until further notice.’ I am all in, and I think the music is fun and he is great and provocative. “I am obsessed with Lil Nas X,” she said. Lil Nas X has a big fan in “Orange is the New Black” star Laverne Cox, who sang his praises to Variety.
Backstage, the mood was just as festive as stars Martha Stewart, “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star Melissa Gorga, “The Bachelorette” star Tayshia Adams, Drew Barrymore, “Friends” icon David Schwimmer, Busy Philipps, Renee Elise Goldsberry, Laverne Cox, Chloe Bailey, up-and comers from the All Access pre-show and assorted Instagram influencers gathered together toasting the return of live music and merriment in Manhattan, with a few fake snowballs lobbed around for good measure with wishes for a brighter New Year.Īsked what she was looking forward to in 2022, Hilton spoke for everyone as she told Variety her hope is for things “to slowly return back to normal, and one day my kids won’t have to wear masks to school.”
