Jimmy Fallon did a funny auto-tune skit on the 2009 Emmy awards that made me look up from my laptop.
With a headset wrapped around his ears, mic at mouth, Jimmy Fallon got the Emmy crowd to clap their hands along with him -- then did a pratfall slip so slickly, it made me wonder if it was planned or not.
Pretty soon, everyone discovered it was, with Fallon's "Roll clip" command.
It's fun to get a real-time reaction from Twitter to see how Jane and Joe Public reacted to Jimmy Fallon's routine:
lindaphantastic: Only watching the Emmys for NPH, but... Jimmy Fallon falling down in autotune is the funniest thing I've seen in awhile. 3 minutes ago
Lesley9492: Jimmy fallon presenting with autotune was great haha n_n 8 minutes ago
esgiii: @uteragogo is still laughing at the jimmy fallon autotune gag. #emmys 9 minutes ago
hrtvsmind: RT @PasteMagazine Emmy grades so far: Host Neil Patrick Harris - B. Jimmy Fallon with AutoTune A+. AGREE. 14 minutes ago
jhgrant: RT @chanelonline: Jimmy Fallon's use of autotune is like when your mom started saying OMG. It's dead people. #Emmys / *snort* 15 minutes ago
So 4 positive out of 5 total real-time Twitter reviews ain't bad.
Jay-Z pronounced auto-tune dead.
Kanye resurrected it nicely.
And now Jimmy Fallon brings it to the Emmy masses.
