Jimmy
Fallon's Priest Plans
1/2/08
Newly married comedian Jimmy Fallon was saved from a life of celibacy
by a childhood crush on actress Elizabeth Perkins.
The star - who wed long-term partner Nancy Juvonen on Saturday
(29Dec07) in the Caribbean - dreamed of becoming a Catholic priest until
he watched Perkins in 1988 movie Big and fell in love with the opposite
sex.
Fallon says, "Growing up, I wanted to be a priest.
"I was an alter boy and I served Mass at 6.45 in the morning - I
liked the smell of Catholic church in the morning. Then in seventh grade,
I decided I did not want to give up sex because I got a huge crush on
Elizabeth Perkins, who was starring with Tom Hanks in Big."
