Kristen Wiig during an interview with host Jimmy Fallon on July 13, 2016. Andrew Lipovsky—NBC by [Melissa Locker](https://time.com/author/melissa-locker/) ## Melissa Locker Jul 14, 2016 2:24 PM UTC _Ghosbusters_ star Kristen Wiig took [_The Bachelorette_](http://time.com/4402175/the-bachelorette-watch-gaucho-and-chill/?iid=sr-link2) fans to the Fantasy Suite last night when she appeared on _The Tonight Show_ as the show’s current wannabe-wife, Jo Jo Fletcher. When Jimmy Fallon announced that the star of [_The Bachelorette_](http://time.com/4329284/every-single-season-of-the-bachelorette-ranked/?iid=sr-link8) was in the house, it seemed plausible (save for the fact that _The Bachelorette_ is exclusively the provenance of the _other_ Jimmy, ABC’s [Jimmy Kimmel](http://time.com/4364081/ghostbusters-jimmy-kimmel-melissa-mccarthy-bill-murray/?iid=sr-link2)). It was a delightful surprise when Wiig arrived on stage in full _Bachelorette_ regalia from the blown-out hair to the statement earrings to the clingy gold gown with a plunging neckline and a rose clutched in her hand. Fallon used the opportunity to grill Wiig’s Jo Jo (that’s short for Jo Jo-sephina) about what happens inside the Fantasy Suites. “There’s fountains!” she explained. She is undoubtedly eager to spend some time inside one with her suitors “Scotchy,” “Deucy,” “Korn,” and, of course, “Mark Hammill” which is her endearing nickname for Jordan Rodgers who looks just like “Jor Jor Binks” from _Star Wars_ (a film she has never seen, of course). She then used the opportunity to talk about her ideal date and to speak directly to [Ben Higgins](http://time.com/4242468/the-bachelor-fantasy-suites-jamaica/?iid=sr-link3) who broke her heart on the last season of _The Bachelor._ Wiig also took the opportunity to ask a ghost to accept a rose[ in song](http://time.com/3380321/kristen-wiig-ellen-sing-let-it-go-from-frozen/?iid=sr-link6). ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4406048/kristen-wiig-the-bachelorette-the-tonight-show/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4406048/kristen-wiig-the-bachelorette-the-tonight-show/"},"headline":"Watch Kristen Wiig Channel Jo Jo From The Bachelorette on The Tonight Show","datePublished":"2016-07-14T14:24:18.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:34:24.293Z","description":"Mark Hammill is the current frontrunner on The Bachelorette","url":"https://time.com/4406048/kristen-wiig-the-bachelorette-the-tonight-show/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Television","movies","jimmy fallon","The Tonight Show","Ghostbusters","the bachelorette","Kristen Wiig"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt7c6550f2c24e37a5/69889bf50a4a2258509ca761/kristen-wiig-fallon.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Melissa Locker","jobTitle":"","url":"https://time.com/author/melissa-locker/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt7c6550f2c24e37a5/69889bf50a4a2258509ca761/kristen-wiig-fallon.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 3","caption":"Kristen Wiig during an interview with host Jimmy Fallon on July 13, 2016.","creditText":"Andrew Lipovsky—NBC","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":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4406048/kristen-wiig-the-bachelorette-the-tonight-show/","name":"Watch Kristen Wiig Channel Jo Jo From The Bachelorette on The Tonight Show"}}]}] ```
