Jimmy Fallon Reveals Sentimental Gift from Wife Nancy for His 50th Birthday: 'Never Felt More Loved'

"It's been the best birthday," the talk show said as he opened up about the special present

Jimmy Fallon was surprised with something rather special for his 50th birthday.

Speaking on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon as he marked turning the big 5-0 on Thursday, Sept. 19, the host revealed that his wife Nancy Juvonen gifted him a sentimental present full of memories from his childhood.

After starting the day with a “Pee-wee Herman breakfast” made by his wife and their two children — “It was the pancake with two fried eggs for eyes and the bacon for lips and it was just so cool. My mom used to make me that for me, it was the best,” Fallon said — the talk show host recalled how his daughters, Winnie Rose, 11, and Frances Cole, 9, then said they wanted to show him something.

“They bring me into this other room and this thing’s wrapped up, and it’s a giant big thing, so I open it up,” Fallon began, before revealing the gift and its backstory.

“My dad had a jukebox when I was growing up. He got it for free from the VFW. It was a broken jukebox, and he goes, ‘Hey, can I take that and try to fix it?’ My dad fixed machines, so he fixed this jukebox, and so we had a jukebox in our house with 45’s and doo-wop music but all sorts of music,” he said.

“And then it just broke, because it was old, it was from the 50s or whatever. And then we got rid of it, I think we gave it for free,” he added.

Fallon then revealed that his friend came across the Fallon family’s exact jukebox in an electronics store last year, and proceeded to call Fallon’s wife Nancy to tell her about his discovery. “He called Nancy and goes, ‘If you want to get Jimmy a cool gift, this person has no idea it’s Jimmy’s jukebox.’ ”

“She bought the jukebox and refurbished it so it plays Bluetooth,” Fallon said, before holding up a photo of the item. “This is the exact jukebox.”

“It's got my dad’s handwriting … I remember him writing it and putting it in there, this is the same one I grew up with, it’s crazy,” he added.

“And then even crazier,” he continued. “There is a song in there called ‘Oh Babe What Would You Say’ by Hurricane Smith, which I love, and I remember playing it when we were filming the movie Fever Pitch, they put it in the movie, in the soundtrack. That’s where I met my wife, she produced that movie, and one of our wedding songs is ‘Oh Babe What Would You Say’ — that was on this jukebox!”

“Best day! It was crazy,” he said, adding that he’d had “the best birthday” and his wife and kids are “the greatest.”

“I have never felt more loved in my life,” he shared with a smile.

As for his other gifts, Fallon revealed that one of his daughters also made him a bracelet that he “can’t take off” as he showed it off on the show. “Very thoughtful, love that,” he said.
