If you're going to be on camera during a massively popular television special, it's probably best to be at least reasonably in control of all your faculties.

Unfortunately for Seth Rogen, when he received an invite to "a small Adele concert", he didn't realise the thing was actually going to be a pretty major television special.

"We smoked a ton of weed," Rogen explains to Fallon in the clip above. "We pull up and we see cranes, camera cranes, there's drones flying around, there's an entire crew there, and I'm like, 'Oh no, we are at the filming of a television special I think. We're on a television show.' And I'm like, 'Maybe it's not that big a television special,' and then the first person I see is Oprah Winfrey."

To make matters worse, Rogen and his wife Lauren Miller were sat right in the front row.

"The whole time I'm like, 'Just try to look cool.'" Rogen says. "Which is not, like, a healthy thought to have."
