Jimmy Fallon said that he once kissed Michael Jordan, the very first day that they met, albeit by accident. Fallon explained that he was at a golf charity event with Derek Jeter.

After the event, they hit the nightclub, and Derek asked Jimmy if he knew the basketball star, to which the comedian answered in the affirmative. Jimmy narrated the incident, saying:

The awkwardness of the moment made Jimmy think that he was going to die, but the former Chicago Bulls star didn't have any hard feelings towards the incident.

Fallon, however, joked that the feeling of that moment still lingered in his mind. He also said that he saw Jordan a couple of months back, and teased that they had a sort of look, adding that Jordan knew what happened.

Fallon has a busy schedule, but whenever he gets a break, he ensures that he spends quality time with his wife and their kids.

Jimmy Fallon does have one big takeaway from the incident and awkward situation; the comedian joked, is that "Jordan is a great kisser."

The comedian, who hosts "The Tonight Show," is married to Nancy Juvonen. The couple who has been married for twelve years, has two daughters.
