Viewers have noticed Jimmy Fallon’s strange behavior after welcoming a group of Tikok stars on his show for the first time, and they haven’t held back on the comments.
Father and son duo A.J. and Big Justice made their first debut on a late-night talk show when they visited The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
The family members were also joined by TikToker The Rizzler, as the trio set out to explain why they’ve become so popular on the social media app.

Andrew Befumo, aka A.J., has been a social media star for a while after he began making family-style videos called ‘All Befumo’d Up!’.
He then went on to introduce his son, Eric (Big Justice), his wife Mama Justice and their daughter, Ashley, to the channel.
However, their YouTube vlogs barely scratched the surface of the fame they’d see on TikTok.

Once they reached stardom, they were invited to Madison Square Garden to play in a celebrity basketball game with The Rizzler, who is a third grader named Christian Joseph.
The Rizzler gained similar popularity for creating videos of him wearing a Black Panther costume, and others where he does the ‘rizz’ face, that looks similar to Zoolander’s Blue Steel.
When they made their appearance on the show, Fallon’s usual bouncy self could be seen weaning, and his behavior caught the attention of a lot of viewers who hit out at his uncharacteristically cold attitude.

Perhaps it was because of the trio’s loud and boisterous nature that he was irked, or maybe it was down to their infamous BOOM! catchphrase, but it was obvious to those who watched that something wasn’t right with the host.
One person wrote on X: “Dawg this is killing me Fallon's so mad lol.”
Another seriously penned: “I want to hire one of those body language analysis people to study Fallon in this whole appearance.
“All I get from Fallon here is seeping contempt. He just talks over these guys and ignores them constantly. It’s even funnier because you can tell The Roots like them more.”

Before they rose to fame, A.J. was a wrestler, and he donned the stage-name, ‘the American Powerchild Eric Justice.’
But since they’ve garnered a huge amount of attention, thanks to their Costco reviews, the family seem to be on the up from here.
The trio’s debut with Fallon showed them explaining how they all became popular, as well as The Rizzler attempting to teach the host how to do his signature ‘rizz’ move.

When Fallon had the Roots band try to get in on the action, he joked: “Questlove, you look like you’re doing an impression of Robert De Niro.”
However, things weren’t completely a train wreck as Fallon on multiple occasions joked with the guests about their ratings of Halloween candy, and pretended to argue over whether raisins were the perfect snack for children who were trick or treating.
He was even gifted a giant cookie from Costco, and seemed to be excited about finally trying something the TikTok stars had majorly rated in previous videos.
Maybe it was just an off day?
