One of Hollywood’s biggest stars gave a shoutout to a Twin Cities radio personality during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Monday.
Josh Duhamel, whose film credits include “Transformers,” “Safe Haven” and “Life As We Know It,” answered questions from Fallon about his 2022 wedding as the show played a clip of Duhamel singing “Carry On Wayward Son” during the reception.
“Dude, that’s pretty good,” Fallon remarked.
“Well I also had Chris Hawkey in the background there, which made me sound a lot better than I was,” Duhamel replied.
You can watch it in the clip below starting at the 1:47 mark.
Hawkey is a longtime co-host of Power Trip morning show on KFAN-FM 100. 3 in the Twin Cities. He is also the lead singer of his own band and part of Rocket Club, a band that blossomed in Minnesota more than ten years ago and recently reunited to produce a new album.

Duhamel, who hails from North Dakota and is a lifelong Minnesota Vikings fan, can often be heard as a guest on KFAN. He went to high school with Minot native and Bally Sports North host/narrator Marney Gellner.
The main reason Duhamel was with Fallon was to talk about his new movie, “Shotgun Wedding,” in which he stars alongside Jennifer Lopez. The film begins streaming on Prime on Friday.
