Halsey and Jimmy Fallon's Google-Translated Backstreet Boys Duet Has Us Cackling

24/01/2020 - 09:50 AM

Halsey just teamed up with Jimmy Fallon [1] for the Backstreet Boys duet we never knew we needed — well, a heavily remixed version, that is. The singer stopped by The Tonight Show on Wednesday night [2] and played a game of Google Translate Songs [3] with the late-night host, belting out a few tracks after their lyrics were completely reworked by Google Translate.

Halsey first performed Madonna [4]'s "Like a Virgin," which was edited to "Unwed Woman" for the purposes of the challenge, before taking a stab at her own hit song "Without Me," which hilariously translated to "You Soft Head." She and Fallon ended the game on a nostalgic note, singing the (very random) lyrics of "I Desire Roads," Google's remixed take on the Backstreet Boys's "I Want It That Way." All we have to say is LO-freakin'-L.

Just when we thought Halsey's appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon [6] couldn't possibly get more entertaining, it did. The 25-year-old star also wound up getting in touch with her New Jersey roots by reciting the lyrics of her song "Graveyard" [7] with a thick, over-exaggerated accent, per Kimmel's request. Yep, it's just as hilarious as you're likely imagining. See for yourself in the video below.
