Remember When Jimmy Fallon And Zooey Deschanel Made A Music Video Together?

    Zooey was also a blonde in the video. 2002 was a weird time for everyone, to be fair.

    Back in 2002, Jimmy Fallon released a comedy album that included a track called "Idiot Boyfriend."

    He also made a music video for it and cast Zooey Deschanel, pre-New Girl, as his S.O.

    Zooey takes Jimmy home to meet her folks, and then, for whatever reason, Zooey's parents are like, "SING A SONG FOR US!"

    Zooey is very happy about this.

    So naturally, he sings about what a terrible boyfriend he is.

    And gives Zooey's grandma the lap dance of a lifetime.

    He also channels a little Prince in the video.

    And there's this super important close-up of his peen in spandex.

    It's a parody of Bobby Brown's "Every Little Step," but still: IMPORTANT.

    IN CONCLUSION: This music video is beautiful, especially Zooey's tears at the end.
