Celine Dion and Jimmy Fallon play an endearingly chaotic game of musical impressions
Celine Dion did not seem excited to play Jimmy Fallon's "Wheel of Musical Impressions" game on Thursday's Tonight Show, but she grudgingly got so into it that she helped Fallon with his impersonation of Michael Jackson singing "One Dance." Fallon also got in a Johnny Cash number, but Dion was the star of the game, trotting out impersonations of Cher (singing "Frère Jacques" — like that was random), Rihanna, and Sia. Her Rihanna got a little racy for Fallon, who asked her to tone it down. "You are telling me to imitate people!" Dion protested. And when he dialed in a Sia song, she said, sarcastically, "oh, thanks so much." But Sia was maybe her best impersonation. Watch below. Peter Weber
