The queen of pop was the queen of jokes when she made her stand-up comedy debut on The Tonight Show on Thursday. "It's good to talk about what you know," she explained, kicking off with jokes about her artwork and dating younger men. At one point, when the crowd didn't seem to get one of her jokes, she said, "It's funny," pointing to The Roots as she added, "They think I'm funny." Even though some of the jokes didn't quite land as Madonna may have wanted them to, it's hilarious to watch the pop icon step outside her comfort zone. Check out the clip of her stand-up comedy above, and then watch Madonna and Jimmy Fallon sing "Holiday" with classroom instruments.
