Shaggy crashes Sting interview with Jimmy Fallon to perform ‘It Wasn’t Me’

A reggae legend crashed Jimmy Fallon's interview with Sting, as they performed one of the artist's most iconic songs together.

The former frontman of The Police started singing an acoustic version of "It Wasn't Me" with the TV host, before Shaggy emerged from behind the curtains to perform his classic alongside the pair on Thursday, 12 March.

"I'm glad you had that line and not me," Sting joked to the Fallon Tonight presenter referring to one particular line in the song.

The singer is set to go on tour across the United States and Europe later in 2026.
