Jimmy Fallon Impersonates Robert Pattinson

Jimmy Fallon Impersonates Robert Pattinson — Funny or Not?

August 8, 2009

Jimmy Fallon has been known to mock celebrities on his late-night show, and the most recent target is Robert Pattinson who he impersonates in a series of videos called "Robert Is Bothered." In the latest segment, Jimmy targets Robert's soft-guy persona, even joking about his hatred of shark week. So, tell us — is Jimmy's imitation of Robert funny or not?

i watched like the first 30 seconds of it and i already knew it wasn't going to be funny. No offense but jimmy fallon is one of the unfunniest commedians ever.

Honestly, I love Robert Pattinson. But it was pretty funny. I didn't find the resemblence of it to Robert, but it made me laugh. I liked it because it was a joke. I'm sure Robert would laugh to because he has a sense of humor : )

He said he didn't eat or drink but in the end he said he was going to Starbucks. :) I thought it was funny. And yes, there is too much hype around the whole Twilight thing and the actors. The movie was booooring and so are the people who act in them, on and off the movie set. I don't get the appeal with all of them, especially Robert P.

I love Edward Cullen more than anything else in this world. I HATE Robert Pattinson. What is there to like about him? He likes to smoke, drink and hit up strip joints. What's so sexy about that?

I agree that Jimmy Fallon was funny on SNL... While I'm all for spoofing celebrities, this one just wasn't a good one. If you're going to do a spoof, do it right, and you might want to make sure there is at least one joke that people CAN laugh at. I literally stared and the screen for the duration, and at the end wished I could get those few minutes and wasted brain cells back. I guess some things are too much to ask for...Like Jimmy Fallon being funny. The accent is that of some generi-brand British guy with no semblance of Pattinson whatsoever. The only aspects that really clue you into the fact that he's supposed to be Pattinson are his wardrobe and the dare I use attempts at making fun of the twilight vamps. Which, considering, is really sad. Twilight is a joke, and you would think that with that much raw material that a spoof would pretty much write itself. Guess not. Maybe he's only funny when he's playing off of Tina Fey.

It's not funny, but not for the "no" reason in the poll. It's just not funny because it's not funny.

I thought it was funny and I usually don't like Jimmy

I found it funny, but I'm probably one of the few people who both like Robert Pattinson and like watching parodies of him. Even if you wanted to be taken seriously, there is no harm in laughing at yourself sometimes.

The accent was terrible. I have never found him funny. I thought it was terrible.

I think this is ridiculous. Quite frankly this is a jealousy thing as with many people who do not understand what is so attractive and appealing about robert pattinson. I think he is a great actor who just wants to be a normal man but do something he loves!

SNL has gone down over the years. It was Palin that made them popular again but that was temporary. I never saw the appeal and humor in Jimmy Fallon. I find Conan more hilarious.

I am not sure about the funny part but I do know for sure that there is too much over hype about this guy that I just don't. I like him becoz he is so humble but as for being the sexiest man alive I don't know. But nways pple say sexy comes in differrent ways so I don't know.

I just don't find Jimmy Fallon all that funny. Definitely it's about time for Pattinson spoofs but, this one just doesn't do it for me.

I've never found Jimmy funny at all. Not my brand of humor I guess. Like eating saltines.

Pretty funny, if only for making fun of the most over-rated actor ever. The books are awful (when did people stop reading actual literature????), the movie is worse - it makes the Harry Potter series seem like Oscar potential.

LOL! LOL! He does the accent just like him. LOL!

In general I haven't found JF very funny as Late Night's new host, but this skit was pretty funny. I'm sure all the Twi-hards will have their undies in a wad over it...
