Zohran Mamdani makes surprise appearance in Jimmy Fallon's Tonight Show monologue
New York, New York - New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani made a surprise appearance in Jimmy Fallon's monologue during Monday's episode of The Tonight Show.
During his monologue, Fallon joked about the freezing temperatures New Yorkers have experienced during a powerful winter storm that dropped massive amounts of snow across the country over the weekend.
"It is brutal out there," Fallon said. "It is so cold my belly button went from an outie to an innie."
"We got a foot of snow here in New York City, and everything went from beautiful to brown mush in two seconds. Basically the entire city pulled an avocado."
"It's so cold President Trump got a space heater installed into his MRI machine," the host said before he was interrupted.
"Jimmy, let me try one," Mamdani said as he appeared on stage to raucous cheers from the in-studio audience.
"It’s so cold in New York City the rent froze itself. Good night, everybody!" the mayor joked, referring to his campaign promise of rent freezes on rent-stabilized apartments in the city.
"But seriously, stay inside, stay warm, stay safe," he added.
Other guests on Monday's episode of The Tonight Show included Pete Davidson and Paris Hilton, with a performance by Don Toliver.
