James White/NBC(NEW YORK) — The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon is cancelled for Friday night after host Jimmy Fallon checked into a New York City hospital earlier in the day due to an injury to his hand.
“This morning Jimmy Fallon was required to have minor surgery after injuring his hand at his Manhattan apartment. He’s expected to make a full and complete recovery,” his rep said in a statement to ABC News.
A tweet from the official Tonight Show account says Fallon won’t be hosting The Tonight Show Friday. “Hey guys – unfortunately tonight’s taping has been cancelled due to Jimmy injuring his hand. He’s totally fine but we’ll be airing a repeat,” it reads.
A tweet adds if you’ve got tickets for Friday’s show, The Tonight Show will be in contact to reschedule.
There’s no word on how Fallon hurt his hand.
