Jimmy Fallon wants to win the Sexiest TV Host title curated by PEOPLE but has to face a tough competition! On the September 18 episode of The Tonight Show, Fallon celebrated his nomination and campaigned for his fairly “fine” competitors to back out. “I’m up against Seth Meyers, Mario Lopez and Mark Consuelos. Yuck!” he said sarcastically.
Then the comedian pitched reasons why he should win the category but ended with him urging the others to drop out from the competition. “I’m very honored, but Seth would let me have this… He would want me to have this. He’s a younger dude — let grandpa have one thing,” Fallon joked. Narrowing it down to Lopez and Consuelos who are “fine” but let him have the title as well.
He further claimed that the Live with Kelly and Mark and Access Hollywood hosts might “choose to be taken off the ballot,” and dedicated messages to them. He requested Consuelos remove his name while staring at the camera. “Then it would be me versus Mario Lopez,” he added.
As for Lopez who’s been a guest on The Tonight Show and would apparently let Jimmy have it. “He’ll go, like, out of respect, ‘Jimmy, you got it,’” Fallon added. To further impress the outlet, he posed with PEOPLE’s tote bag and pretended to walk on a subway.
Fallon drew another similarity between him and the outlet to strengthen his pitch to win the Sexiest TV Host title, pointing that the magazine and him both recently celebrated 50 years milestone. “Look at this. ‘Established 1974.’ You know what else is established in 1974? Me! Are you kidding me? It should be a no-brainer,” he joked.
The Buckingham Murders, directed by Hansal Mehta and starring Kareena Kapoor Khan in the lead role, couldn’t lure the audience much at the ticket window. The mystery-thriller ended its first week in single digits, which is not fair for a star like Kareena Kapoor Khan whose last film Crew opened with double-digits at the box office.
The Hansal Mehta-directed movie has generated positive to mixed word of mouth from a section of audience. However, it didn’t have mass appeal due to which the makers opted for a limited showcasing. Though the mystery-thriller garnered appreciation for Kareena Kapoor’s performance, it failed miserably to click at the theatres.
After earning Rs 5.20 crore in its first weekend, The Buckingham Murders added Rs 2.65 crore in the weekdays to take its total cume to Rs 7.85 crore net at the Indian box office in the first week. While the new release faced wrath of its limited audience, its box office also suffered due to the re-release of Sohum Shah-Rahi Anil Barve film, Tumbbad.
The makers have signed a good non-theatrical deal with streaming giant, Netflix and bagged customary rebate from the UK Government, which makes it a financially safe project. Hansal Mehta has also confirmed in a recent interview that The Buckingham Murders has recovered its production cost and whatever the movie is doing at the theatres now is a bonus.
Kareena Kapoor Khan has completed 25 years in the Industry. Her next release is Singham Again, slated to hit the screens on Diwali 2024.
