From calling Rep. Paul Ryan’s budget a “joke” to cracking jokes of her own, former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin showed off her comedy chops this week with an appearance on the “Tonight Show” Wednesday.
Shortly after Russian President Vladimir Putin called President Barack Obama over the weekend to discuss the situation in Ukraine, he called Sarah Palin to discuss her prediction of the Russian invasion of Ukraine — or so the fictional “Tonight Show” setup goes.
With Fallon donning a wig to play Putin, the two engage in a back-and-forth routine full of jokes about bear wrestling, mama grizzlies, Obama’s “mom jeans,” and even a duet of the Pharrell song “Happy” with Putin on Russian balalaika and flute.
At the end, Putin quips he’d enjoy a new bottle of vodka. “Well, actually, Alaska’s not that far from Russia” Palin replies, before hopping across the Bering Sea to swing by with a bottle.
