Bet you didn't know there was a Guinness World Record for "widest wig." Well, there is. And Drew Barrymore just shattered it.

With a helpful assist from Tonight Show staffers, Barrymore donned a hairpiece that was seven feet, four inches wide -- beating the previous record of five feet, two inches. Bonus: the wig had some cool bows on it.

And because you can't just make history once per late night show, she also shattered the record for "most lipstick applications in 30 seconds."
