The Roots’ Michelle Bachmann Intro: Jimmy Fallon Apologizes For ‘Mess’

Seeking to quell growing criticism and public attention, “Late Night” host Jimmy Fallon has apologized for his house band’s understated musical attack on Rep. Michele Bachmann on Monday night.

“I’m honored that @michelebachmann was on our show yesterday and I’m so sorry about the intro mess. I really hope she comes back,” Fallon wrote on Twitter Tuesday night.

When Bachmann, who appeared as a guest on Fallon’s show, walked across the stage to take her seat next to the host’s desk, The Roots played the opening of a song by Fishbone called “Lyin’ Ass Bitch.”

While the audience only heard a “la la” refrain, the message was sent. Before the show, the band’s drummer, Questlove tweeted, “aight late night walkon song devotees: you love it when we snark: this next one takes the cake. ask around cause i aint tweeting title.”

Earlier on Tuesday, Fallon tweeted, “@questlove is grounded.”
