It's no surprise by now that Jimmy Fallon can do impressive musical impressions of pop artists. He's been doing it since his SNL days and has since performed with some of those artists he has impersonated, such as Bruce Springsteen and Neil Young. Now he's brought Christina Aguilera in on the fun, and we've got to admit she's pretty spot on. In a segment called "The Wheel of Musical Impressions," both Aguilera and Fallon were given the name of an artist and a random song. Aguilera crushed it singing the Folgers Coffee theme in the style of Cher, "This Little Piggy" in the style of '90s pop rival Britney Spears, and The Golden Girls theme song in the style of former Voice coach Shakira, even adding "lole lole lole" to bring it home.
For his part, Fallon sang "Grand Old Flag" in the style of David Bowie, and "Itsy Bitsy Spider" in the style of Michael McDonald.
Aguilera returned to NBC's The Voice on Monday night after a several-season hiatus to record her new album and welcome her second child, a daughter born last summer. Aguilera has also signed on to appear in multiple episodes of ABC's Nashville, where she'll play the role of a pop star who moves to Nashville in the hopes of reinventing herself as a country artist.
Prior to their musical impressions, Fallon and Aguilera talk about her newborn, her daredevil son, and what it's like to come back to The Voice after some time off.
"Every time I come back it gets easier and easier because they've got the routine down by now. The first three seasons were really rough and rocky and nobody kind of knew behind the scenes what was happening, how it would work," she explained. "Then once it takes off every year, they gain more success and it becomes more familiar to people. Just sitting there with the boys, they'll just take shots at each other all day, and Blake [Shelton]'s literally taking shots, and it's funny. So it's like a good time. I just sit there and laugh all day and listen to their potty humor and dirty jokes. Thank god I can roll with it, it's like having two grown babies as well."
