Kathie Lee, Lester Holt and Brian Williams Rap Video Goes Viral on 'Tonight Show' WATCH [UPDATE]

Kathie Lee, Lester Holt and Brian Williams are now three of the most popular rap stars, thanks to Jimmy Fallon. The host of The Tonight Show created an epic rap video using clips of the broadcasters that has since gone viral.

As of the writing of this article, the video, hosted on YouTube, has been viewed over 6 million times. And it's not surprise that the video went viral. After all, the clip was perfectly produced!

The rap video is just one of the number of reasons Jimmy Fallon replaced Jay Leno. In his short time as host, he's already seen the highest ratings the show has received in over two decades.

As Offbeat Previously Reported:

That wasn't the only surprise that Jimmy had planned during his first week as host of The Tonight Show. One surprise segment saw a number of A-list celebrities.

During the bit, Jimmy joked that a celebrity bet him $100 that he would never be the host. Apparently it was time to pay up, because celebrity after celebrity came out to pay Jimmy.

Everyone from Lady Gaga to Kim Kardashian made a brief stop, saying nothing, just handing Fallon a hundo.

And to make sure the week ended on a high note. His BFF and SNL hosting partner, Justin Timberlake, was a guest and musical performer.

While on the couch, Justin revealed that all of those divorce rumors were false. According to Timberlake, he and Jessica are as happily married as ever.

Of course, not everyone agrees. After all, Jessica has been noticeably absent from a number of Justin's big nights. This was especially true when he was performing on SNL, as one crew member revealed:

"Justin was solo again at the Saturday Night Live after party and he stayed until nearly 5 a.m. Everyone was buzzing about her absence...She wasn't with him at rehearsals on Friday either, which was sort of weird. And it's not that Justin was flirting with other women or anything at the party but something just didn't seem right. It was literally what everyone was talking about; whether he and Jessica have split."
