Tim McGraw Teaming Up With Jimmy Fallon

Did you catch Jay Leno's last show as host of the Tonight Show last week?  Jimmy Fallon is getting set to fill in the big chair and he's going to bring some mega stars with him!

Jimmy will begin as the host of the Tonight Show on February 17th with musical guests U2, then Lady Gaga on the 18th and our boy Tim McGraw will perform on Wednesday the 19th!

Jimmy Fallon admits that he's not letting the NBC execs tell him what to do in terms of show content. He says that at one point they didn't want him to host the Emmys because his audience was "too young"...Lo and behold, the ratings were up from the prior year. Let's hope for the best on the new Tonight Show lineup!

Here's a video for McGraw's tune, Southern Girl to get you pumped up!
