Clarke, who plays the blonde-haired bad-ass queen Daenerys Targaryen on HBO’s smash hit show _Game of Thrones,_ posted a photo of herself crying with laughter to her Instagram. Kristen Wiig appeared on Jimmy Fallon dressed as the dragon queen complete with blue dress, blonde wig and a plastic dragon perched on her shoulder and hilariously answered questions while pretending to be the Khaleesi. (TIME suspects she’s not a _GoT_ devotee.) ### See Photos from Game of Thrones Season 5  Maisie Williams as Arya Stark. Macall B.
