American talk show host Jimmy Fallon finds himself in the eye of the storm. In a magazine article Rolling Stonerelayed by Télérama, sixteen employees and former employees of Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon denounce the “toxic” management established by the television star. His constant mood swings and his desire to constantly belittle the members of his team are called into question. “If he’s not in a good mood, everyone has a bad day,” says one witness.
Since 2014, Jimmy Fallon has established himself as a true star of the small screen. Her Tonight Show occupies one of the most exposed slots in the television schedule. If, in front of the camera, the games and interviews made the host appear to be a very likeable personality, the reality would be quite different, according to Rolling Stone : permanent climate of fear, anxiety attacks and dark thoughts are legion within the production team.
Apologies in private
By stating that “no one says no to Jimmy”, the host seems to create a climate of terror. This is evidenced by the significant number of showrunners (nine) which followed one another in nine years. Following the publication of the article in the columns of Rolling Stone, Jimmy Fallon apologized during a Zoom meeting with members of his team. “It’s embarrassing and I feel terrible. You have no idea how bad I feel, he said. For me, this show should be fun, everyone should feel good, we need the best team to make the most successful show. »
