Jimmy Fallon Announces Upcoming Comedy Album

According to E!online, comedian and talk show host Jimmy Fallon is currently working on a new comedy album which will be released in the summer of 2012. The album will include a combination of some of his most popular comedy routines and musical parodies which he has performed on his  talk show "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon" on the NBC network. 

The comedian's first comedy album, 'The Bathroom Wall' was released back in 2002.  In a recent statement, Fallon commented, "Having a new album coming out soon on Warner Bros. means so much to me. Mostly, it means I should probably start writing some songs."

Named one of the 10 shows in 2010 that "helped make television worth watching" by the Los Angeles Times, "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" has become the go-to destination for comedy, music and A-list talent. Comedian Jimmy Fallon brings a fun new energy to the NBC comedy-talk franchise with his personalized interview style, love of audience participation, spot-on impersonations and innovative sketches. The show consistently garners attention for viral videos, audience games and prominent guests such as Bruce Springsteen, Paul McCartney, Gwyneth Paltrow and Justin Timberlake. Fallon's choice of house band, The Roots, has been universally praised.

In less than two years on the air, "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" had already begun collecting awards. In 2009, the show's website, latenightwithjimmyfallon.com, won both an Emmy Award and a Webby Award. The same year, Fallon himself received the "Webby Person of the Year" Award. In 2010, the show won its second consecutive Emmy for its website, as well as an Emmy for Short-Form Editing for the "Glee" parody "6-Bee." Most recently, the show's website earned its second Webby nomination.

Since its broadcast debut on March 2, 2009, "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" has created a huge online presence for itself with many of its popular segments, celebrity sketches and musical performances becoming viral hits. "Late Night" guests come to Fallon's studio 6B ready to play. Memorable moments include Fallon dressed as Neil Young in a parody of pop hit "Whip My Hair" with Bruce Springsteen, Justin Timberlake joining Fallon for a musical melody through the "History of Rap," and Fallon and Paul McCartney singing a duet of "Yesterday" with the original lyrics in a performance of "Scrambled Eggs."
