Did Jonathan Bailey kiss Jimmy Fallon?
Jonathan Bailey turned heads during his latest appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where a lighthearted segment almost led to a kiss with the host.
During the interview, Fallon invited Bailey to take part in a playful reenactment based on the classic Jurassic Park move. The host explained, “There’s a staple move in all the Jurassic films where your back is to the camera, and then you slowly turn, and then you notice something’s behind you.”
Before beginning, both Fallon and Bailey put on the now-famous “slutty little glasses” worn by latter’s character, Dr. Henry Loomis. As they got into position for the bit, Bailey stood up and adjusted his pants in an exaggerated gesture. The two then faced away from the audience and waited for a cue from the show. As dramatic music played, Fallon said, “We’re gonna hear a noise, and we’re not sure what we’re gonna see behind us.”
As suspenseful music played, the pair prepared to turn around dramatically. However, instead of spotting a dinosaur, they leaned toward each other as if about to kiss. They got their faces surprisingly close before bursting into laughter.
The moment had Fallon and the audience laughing, while Bailey hugged the host. The actor joked, “Again, again, again, again! Too easy — that was too easy!” The moment quickly became a viral highlight. The pair tried a few more playful variations of the scene, but they couldn’t keep from breaking character each time.
Bailey was on the show to promote Jurassic World Rebirth, which arrives in theaters on July 2 and also stars Scarlett Johansson and Mahershala Ali. The new film picks up five years after Jurassic World: Dominion.
