Instead, she led the crowd in a bout of cheering. Joined by Fallon and both armed with pom-poms, she led a Honey Boo Boo themed chant, but unfortunately for Fallon, it was not enough to earn him one of her friendship bracelets. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/2865100/jimmy-fallon-cheerleader-honey-boo-boo/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/2865100/jimmy-fallon-cheerleader-honey-boo-boo/"},"headline":"Watch Jimmy Fallon Play Cheerleader With Honey Boo Boo","datePublished":"2014-06-12T16:31:39.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-21T08:23:11.165Z","description":"When I say \"Honey\", you say \"Boo Boo\"","url":"https://time.com/2865100/jimmy-fallon-cheerleader-honey-boo-boo/","keywords":["celebrities"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt5f54d33ee5673562/6986974e3bc999794e1a40c5/450456090.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"TIME Video","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/time-video/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt5f54d33ee5673562/6986974e3bc999794e1a40c5/450456090.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon - Season 1","caption":"The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon - Season 1","creditText":"NBC—NBCU Photo Bank via Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/celebrities/","name":"celebrities"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/2865100/jimmy-fallon-cheerleader-honey-boo-boo/","name":"Watch Jimmy Fallon Play Cheerleader With Honey Boo Boo"}}]}] ```
