The Beard Is Fake, right?…or is it?

By now I’m sure you’ve seen Jimmy Fallon’s new late night talk show. If you recall, Jimmy played Stillwater’s 2nd manager in Almost Famous, Dennis. There’s a nice interview with Jimmy and he does mention a bit about the film. Here’s the relevant quote:

“Cameron Crowe is a genius. If he asked me to deliver coffee to the set of a new movie right now, I would do it. On Almost Famous I had a beard that everyone thinks is fake, but it’s not. I was sitting next to my mother during the premiere and she kept asking me when I would be in the movie. I pointed myself out and she didn’t believe me because of the beard.”
