Charli D’Amelio was one of the first guests of 2025 on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon!
The 20-year-old TikTok star made an appearance on the late night talk show, which aired on Monday night (January 6).
On the show, Charli talked about being a guess on the game Heads Up, her and her friends’ slang phrases, and how she found out she landed her role in the Broadway musical & Juliet!
“Oh my goodness, I got a phone call… a FaceTime call from my agents, and my camera was off because I looked insane,” she told host Jimmy Fallon. “They were like, ‘I think you’re gonna want to turn your camera on.’ And I was like, ‘Okay.’ So I did, and they said, ‘You booked & Juliet.’”
“I immediately burst into tears and I was like, home alone. I didn’t know what to do,” she continued. “So I was just pacing around my house… I was just so proud and nervous, but excited.”
“This is the dream. Everyone who loves their creative outlet, whether it’s singing, dancing, acting, this is what you work for, and it is such an honor to be a part of it,” Charli added. “And I’m having the time of my life!”
Charli made her Broadway debut in & Juliet back in October 2024, and a couple months later, it was announced that she extended her run!
