My Favorite Modern Day Interviewer: Jimmy Fallon

I absolutely love watching Jimmy Fallon’s interviews because they seamlessly blend moments of humor and seriousness. I recently came across a compilation of interviews he conducted with Zendaya. While I hadn’t seen this video before, I chose her interviews specifically because of the way she carries herself—it’s captivating.

Jimmy Fallon’s interviewing style is a unique mix of comedy, dramatic pauses, intentional mess-ups, and serious conversation. What I admire most is how, despite the unscripted nature of his interviews, everything flows perfectly. His transitions feel natural, and he creates a rhythm that keeps viewers engaged.

What sets Jimmy apart is his ability to truly listen. He gives space for his guest to speak, reacts authentically, and keeps the conversation alive. One of my favorite moments was when he and Zendaya discussed her experience filming Spider-Man. His questions go beyond surface-level curiosity; they help us dig deeper and understand the story behind the moments.
