“The Tonight Show” raps “Harry Potter”, quizzes parents about the series

by Aimee Krenz · June 19, 2014

It’s been nothing but laughs at Universal Studios for fans of Harry Potter and late night host Jimmy Fallon. Monday’s show gave us the first look at Diagon Alley before the media blitz began for the Red Carpet Preview event this week. Jimmy and his apparently fearless co-host Higgins landed in Diagon Alley before Monday night’s show, where Higgins, much like Neville, took off on a broom and promptly smashed against a wall. If you missed this bit, you can check it out in our previous post here. The pair then found themselves in Ollivanders Wand Shop, where they procured their wands.

On Tuesday, as part of a familiar comedy bit for The Tonight Show called the Suggestion Box, one fan suggested that the house band, the Roots, make up a Harry Potter rap on the spot. What happened next was pretty much the coolest thing we’ve seen in a while, Diagon Alley excluded. Take a look:

Luckily, none of us are ever on Harry Potter overload, and Jimmy Fallon gave us another entertaining segment at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter on Wednesday night, testing parents on their knowledge of the series, much to the embarrassment of their children, who were not allowed to help them in any way:
