“Tonight Show” host Jimmy Fallon poked fun at fallen Olympic gold medalist Ryan Lochte at Sunday’s VMAs.
The comic took the stage at Madison Square Garden dressed like the disgraced Olympian in a track jacket with Lochte’s signature white dyed hair and proceeded to poke fun at the swimmer, who claimed he was robbed at gunpoint in Rio, before footage from a security camera proved he lied.
“Is it too late now to say sorry?” Fallon asked, using Justin Bieber’s apology anthem “Sorry” to mock Lochete recanting his story.
Same, Michael Phelps. Same. #VMAs https://t.co/OxP4n0q1f3โ MTV (@MTV) August 29, 2016
He continued to spew off more lies, including one that he filmed all of the Video of the Year nominees: โI had a 30-way with Kanye West. I made Lemonade with Queen Bey. Iโm Reezy with the good hair!”

| Gold medalist Ryan Lochte faces criminal charges in Brazil after he was caught in a scandal. |
Lochte and his fellow Olympic swimmers Gunnar Bentz, Jack Conger and James Feigen, face charges in Brazil for filing a fake police report.
Lochteโs Olympic teammate Michael Phelps was seen on camera exclaiming, โOh my god!โ as he took out his cell phone to film the silliness. Phelps presented earlier in the night.
The “SNL” alum finished off his bit by taking one last jab at Lochte: โWho had the Best Video of the year? I canโt tell you that. I couldnโt tell you even if there was a gun to my head, which there isnโt, but I still couldnโt choose.โ
