Drew Barrymore Licks Bowling Ball For $10 (VIDEO)

(SCROLL FOR VIDEO)

Drew Barrymore was Friday's big guest on Jimmy Fallon's new show, and she participated in his bit "Lick it for Ten," where you have to lick a surprise item and are given $10.

Barrymore is a best friend and producing partner of Nancy Juvonen, Fallon's wife.

The item brought out for Barrymore to lick was a $139 pink bowling ball.

As she went to lick it, hoping to earn her cab fare, her new tongue ring was also visible.

Later in Friday night's episode Mario Batali cooked Molecche con Rapini for Jimmy, Drew and "Gossip Girl" guy Chace Crawford. (Scroll below the Drew clip to watch that)

Earlier in his first week Fallon had a dance off with Drew's fellow "Charlie's Angel" Cameron Diaz, played beer pong with Serena Williams and sat down with Tina Fey.

She was terrific in ET.

He welshed. He didn't give her the ten bucks. "Cabfare home," Drew referred to the money as. I think they're too close for it to work on the small screen. Her biz partner is *his* wife; a bit incestuous. Whereas when Drew flashed Letterman, it worked. There was actually chemistry. The age difference helped between Dave and her. Almost all the late night hosts didn't fare that well initially with the critics or the audience. It takes time in that format to grow. See Conan's reviews in the beginning, sixteen years ago....And The Tonight Show is what he gets. I'm not saying Fallon has it to have that kind of success. But clearly he's a charming guy who should make for some interesting moments. People, it's not that big a deal.

Just a fact:
Johnny Carson nearly doubled the audience of THE TONIGHT SHOW in 6 months after taking over the hit show over from Jack Paar.

Since Carson is the Gold Standard of Late Night I thought we should have an accurate measurement.

[deny77]

Well, let's see how Jimmy's doing in 6 months.

Was Carson a hit critically in the first weeks and months? Where did you get the info about the size of Carson's audience? There could be other factors at play there, such as more affiliates carrying the show.

I saw Ann Coulter deep throat a bowling ball once.

[andvoodoo2]

Did it get stuck? That would explain the Adam's apple...

[Seaglass]

Good one!

[che guevara]

well yes a python can dislocate it's jaw to swallow just about anything LOL

[pollyannacowgirl]

That is just immature.

How old is this girl? How old is Jimmy Fallon? These people need to grow up already and leave the juvenile crap to the younguns. Even Johnny Knoxville doesn't do this junk anymore.

[jennbeez]

Johnny Knoxville has surprising depth- check him out in the Ringer.

Reminds me why I don't own a TV.

[groot]

[harrymellon]

[Gunga-Din]

[WowJones]

Would have been better is she stuck it in the hole.

[spinns17]

[BenderBot]

I just had an out of body experience for about 10 seconds after seeing her licking the ball.

[BannedInBoston]

Heh. She obviously knows what she's doing....

[NewYorkStateofMind]

so how long will they give this guy before a replacement?

[rf dude]

Did the bowling ball consent?

If you were a bowling ball, wouldn't you?

[Tulka2]

The latest science says if you want your kid to have a strong immune system, you won't let them live in a bubble. The best thing you could do for your baby is to live with two dogs and a cat. Look it up. So.... Darling Drew will never die from a germ.

[Son of a Rich]

"Lick it for $10" is as screamingly funny as "will it float?" No wonder these late night hosts are millionaires.

[NewYorkStateofMind]

One problem with your statement

Dave is a King of late night

Fallon is an unfunny hack

[groot]

oh ya?! well conan o'brien was an unfunny hack too until... well um.

[Son of a Rich]

A bored king with contempt for his audience.

[myklwain]

yeah, jimmy has it made.

[dswagz]

She's holding her hair!!
Obviously, she's done this before, and, for an audience.......

[myklwain]

she's a beauty, aint she?
