Even though it is just March, Jimmy Fallon already has the holiday mood.

This week, the late night host confirmed to E! News that he will release a holiday-themed album later this year. He revealed that he has been working on it for several years. He added that the album now has comic songs, traditional songs, and a handful of duets, and it is humorous. That should be well-balanced, he emphasized.

Fallon is no stranger to getting into the Christmas mood, and he has frequently performed Christmas tunes with his celebrity friends on "The Tonight Show."

Back in 2021, he collaborated with Ariana Grande and Megan Thee Stallion to record the pandemic-era holiday song "It Was A... (Masked Christmas)."

"I didn't want to do a Mariah Carey, "All I Want for Christmas Is You" type of song, which is what everybody tries to do," Fallon told Billboard's Pop Shop Podcast of the track. "I'm like, 'Guys, she's done it. She's done it well. She nailed it. You can move away. No one's going to top that song. She's the queen. Let her have it. Think of a new idea.'"

Last year, Fallon collaborated with Dolly Parton on "Almost Too Early for Christmas," a song that questions when it is truly appropriate to begin celebrating the holiday season.

In another news however, things might not be so festive for the host. Monday, the attorneys for "The Tonight Show" presenter Jimmy Fallon filed a motion to reject a subpoena issued by conceptual artist Ryder Ripps, describing it as a "unwarranted fishing expedition for irrelevant evidence."

Fallon is not a party to Yuga Labs' case against Ripps and Jeremy Cahen, Ripps' business partner. Yuga Labs filed a lawsuit against the duo in June 2022 for trademark infringement, false advertising, and unfair competition in relation to the duo's manufacture of a fake NFT collection resembling Yuga's popular Bored Ape Yacht Club non-fungible tokens.

Although Ripps and Cahen asserted that their collection was satirical art and therefore protected from trademark infringement allegations, the New York court supervising the case disagreed, stating that their work was "no more creative than the selling of counterfeit handbags."
