#FallonTonight Miley Cyrus and The Tonight Show's female writers pen Thank You Notes to Hillary Clinton.
You've inspired so many people around the country,
including many right here on our staff at The Tonight Show.
And I know that our female writers, in particular,
are big fans of yours, and they wanted to thank you in person.
So if you don't mind, is it cool if they write out
some thank-you notes right now?
I love your thank-you notes section.
Let's bring out our first writer, Taryn.
Would you like to come out, Taryn?
Hey, thanks, pal. Appreciate it.
How are you? I'm great.
James, can I get some thank-you note writing music, please?
Good job, Taryn.
Thank you.
Thank you, Hillary Clinton,
for being the first female presidential candidate
nominated by a major party,
and also the first female senator of New York,
and also the first First Lady to transcend First Ladyhood
to become Secretary of State.
I guess what I'm trying to say is,
thank you, Hillary Clinton,
for being the Hillary Clinton of American politics.
Come on over, Jasmine.
Jasmine?
Oh, my gosh. Hi.
Hi.
Yeah.
Thank you, Hillary Clinton,
for handling this difficult transition
with more grace than I ever could have imagined.
That being said, call me day or night,
and I will be there with a gallon of ice cream
and two spoons to tell you,
girl, you are so much better than him.
You may get the call.
I will be there.
Joe! Joe!
This is Joe.
Hi.
Nice to meet you.
Thank you, Hillary,
for all the work you've done for public health care.
Ever since the election, I've really depended
on my government-subsidized anti-anxiety medication.
Thank you.
Thank you, Joe.
Marina.
Thank you, Hillary, for remaining strong
and showing poise before, during,
and especially after the election.
You taught me that when dealing with a difficult defeat,
it's okay to take time to reflect,
set your focus on a new path forward,
and maybe find a cave in the woods to scream into.
Nothing wrong with that.
Nothing wrong with a good cave in the woods, Caroline.
Thank you, Hillary, for always sticking to the issues,
even as people criticized you for superficial things
like your hair, your wardrobe, and your appearance.
You showed girls everywhere that politics
isn't a popularity contest, because if it were,
you would have won by about 3 million votes.
Thank you, Hillary Clinton.
I was with her. I'm still with her.
And right now, I literally am with her.
Can I take a selfie?
Yes, of course!
She's taking a selfie. All right, take a selfie.
Thank you, Hillary.
Albertina.
Hello.
Thank you, Hillary Clinton,
for being someone I continue to admire and look up to,
and for standing up to critics
who said that a woman couldn't be president
because they'd be too emotional,
impulsive, and unpredictable.
So glad we didn't end up with someone like that.
Thank you, Albertina.
Hillary, we also have
someone else who wants to thank you.
This is fantastic. Yes.
Thank you, Hillary,
for being a constant beacon of strength,
hope, and determination
for me and millions of other young women.
You've been a role model and an inspiration
and a voice of reason in uncertain times.
I could go on and on,
but I'd like to get right to the point.
Can I give you a hug?
Yes!
Oh, my gosh.
This is like...
I didn't want you to do that.
Since we're writing thank-you notes,
could I write one, too?
Would that be okay?
Oh, my goodness.
Oh, this is...
Yeah, wow, this is pretty amazing.
Okay.
James?
Thank you, Miley,
the Tonight Show writers,
and all of the women and young girls out there.
You are smart, strong,
and deserving of every opportunity.
Together, we've made our voices heard,
we've done great things,
and we've come a long way.
But as Miley would say,
we can't stop,
and we won't stop.
Our thanks to Hillary Rodham Clinton!
We have got a special performance
from Miley Cyrus!
Absolutely, everybody!
