Drugdealer Shares Weyes Blood Collab “Real Thing,” Gets Unconventional Late Night Debut Via Jimmy Fallon

A few weeks ago, Drugdealer, the one-man baroque pop project of one Michael Collins got some unexpected exposure on late-night television. Drugdealer got a big spotlight moment on Jimmy Fallon’s Tonight Show, but not because Collins was there to perform in the studio. (Amyl And The Sniffers were actually that night’s performers; The Tonight Show evidently loves acts who reference illicit substances in their names.) Instead, it was because a viewer sent in the note that Jimmy Fallon and Michael Collins actually look like one another. And it turns out that Fallon actually does look a bit like Collins, as long as he’s got the right fake facial hair, wig, outfit, and facial expression. One might argue that any white guy of a certain age could look like any other white guy of a certain age in these circumstances, but what the hell, sure.
