It's time for Jimmy Fallon to start wearing glasses on The Tonight Show

Glasses project gravitas, says Jesse David Fox. And the 46-year-old Fallon -- who was photographed wearing glasses in his younger days -- needs to change up his look and show an evolution as he approaches his 50s. "The fact is, Jimmy’s getting older (he’s 46; next year he’ll be 47 and so on), but he doesn’t look like it," says Fox. "I’m not saying that Jimmy in 2020 looks like Baby Jimmy, America’s post-9/11 SNL heartthrob. It’s that he hasn’t exactly transitioned into Daddy Jimmy. And I think he needs to if he’s going to continue hosting The Tonight Show for decades to come." Fox adds: "Let’s be frank: Fallon’s face and head are just bigger now. And it’s a handsome face and his head has plenty of hairs, I just worry it might get to be too much of both. Glasses would be slimming and bring a sense of relative proportion. I believe they’d make him look hot. More so, I believe people would say they make him look hot (see: Kimmel’s beard or Colbert’s beard or Conan’s beard). And is it so wrong to want to make Fallon look hot to people, but, you know, in a different way than before?"
