The Truth About Tina Fey And Jimmy Fallon's Relationship

Jimmy Fallon, who worked on Saturday Night Live under Tina Fey's tutelage, got the opportunity to share with the world just how important she's been to him over the years. In 2018, in a segment on The Tonight Show, Fallon welcomed some of Fey's biggest fans to share what she means to them while she watched. 

When he brought the show back to the studio, Fallon shared his own heartfelt words about how much Fey has done for him. He said, "If you're lucky throughout your life to get to meet and spend time with a few people who really change you for the better, I am that lucky; for me, you're one of those people... I was lucky enough to work with you and grow with you and learn from you." He added that he hopes his two daughters are as "fearless" and "confident" as she is. 

These two even put their friendship to the test with Fallon's Best Friends Challenge in 2017, answering questions to see how well they really do know each other. Though the questions were tricky, it gave them a chance to reminisce about their years on Weekend Update more than a decade earlier. Fallon and Fey got so caught up in remembering SNL that it was almost like they weren't still filming The Tonight Show, and in the end, they triumphantly declared they're definitely best friends.
