Former SNL cast member Jimmy Fallon has managed to rocket to pop culture ubiquity and earn one of the most coveted jobs in late-night TV.

• Vogue editor Lauren Davis's wedding to a rich foreigner is very important! It will be held on a private island! Each of the nine bridesmaids will wear a dress by a different designer! ""You can expect the entire young Paris Match, Hola and Hello crowds for this event," someone predicted. Care, care! [Page Six]
  

Tracy Morgan may have cultivated an image as a happy-go-lucky, shirt-doffing, impregnate-every-lady-in-El-Paso teddy bear, but if you even think of messing with his Astronaut Jones sketch by giggling like a little girl, he will knock you the fuck out, Jimmy Fallon. [P6]

• Kevin Federline has subpoena'd a bunch of Britney Spears' ex-nannies, and they don't have a lot of good things to say about her parenting skills. 'Drunk With The Babies' may be our favorite Us cover line of all time. [Us Weekly]
  

NBC says talentless hack Jimmy Fallon is at the top of the list to replace Conan O'Brien on "Late Night," for some deeply inexplicable reason. [B&C]

Oh, shit, we forgot: two whole seasons of "Joey." Yup. We're so screwed.

We are still two years away from seeing NBC's 11:30 pm-12:30 am slot emerge out from its current holding pattern in a Comedy Ice Age, a long overdue thaw in which Jay Leno's insufferable "stupid man on the street" interviews will finally be replaced by Conan O'Brien's sublime, Horny Manatee sensibilities. But who or what will fill O'Brien's hour remains very much up in the air: With manorexic Carson Daly hardly setting the late-night landscape on fire, NBC has begun to look elsewhere for a possible replacement, including former SNLer Jimmy Fallon. Reports the NY Times:

We've always thought alleged funnyman Jimmy Fallon had little talent but a cute haircut. So we almost started to wonder whether this crazy email that showed up the other day actually had a point:

It was midnight-ish at the Tribeca Grand on Tuesday night and varied and sundry Billyburg hipsters were lined up at the coat check to avail themselves of their artfully torn fur coats and intentionally satin jackets. The twenty-something girl in front of me had a magazine picture of Justin Timberlake safety-pinned to her black t-shirt. It was, like, ironic.

On Saturday Night Live, Jimmy Fallon, complaining that Christmas trees are being abandoned, unrecycled, on the sidewalks: There hasn't been that much wood on the streets since Brad Pitt walked through Greenwich Village. Forced laughter.

Highlights:
· Best Dis to Fling at a Fashionista: "That outfit is so September 10th." (John Waters)
· A Reader's Well-Reasoned Assessment of Jimmy Fallon: "As long as I've got a face, he's got a place to sit."
· On Michael Jackson's Fascinating Paternal Behavior: "Shouldn't these kids be instantly snatched away and given to someone normal, like Liza Minnelli?"
· Weirdest Gimmick: Broadway musicals and movies "ending with a quick, out-of-nowhere same-sex coupling, usually for the giddy, shticky curtain call...it's generally a way of saying, 'We're so cool but not cool enough to actually incorporate anything substantially gay into the main plot.'"
· TONY Awards Tragedy: "Urinetown lost for Best Musical, despite winning score, book, and director, mainly because a lot of the stodgy voters felt, 'I couldn't get past the title.' They're so full of shit."
