Kristen Wiig Is Daenerys Targaryen on “The Tonight Show”

Somewhere in a forest, on a mountain, there was a dome made out of dirt and sticks, where teenage dragons were left unattended while their mother, Daenerys Targaryen, stopped by "The Tonight Show" on Wednesday. 

With Daenerys' signature platinum braided hair, flowing gown and a dragon perched on her shoulder, Kristen Wiig portrayed Emilia Clarke's character on HBO's "Game of Thrones."

The former "SNL" alum tried to keep a straight face while host Jimmy Fallon asked her questions about her life as The Mother of Dragons.

“Khaleesi of course means ‘queen,’ remind me what is your name again?” the late-night host asked.

"Karen," answered Wiig through a fit of giggles.

As the "Game of Thrones" heroine, Wiig revealed some surprising facts about Khaleesi in a round of rapid-fire questions. Her favorite food is "meat," she loves wearing "long skirts," and her favorite vacation spot is the "west elm of the shore."

"What do you do for fun?" Fallon asked.

"I do spells on people," 'Karen' said before revealing that she also likes to tell jokes about rocks and swords.  

Khaleesi claimed she didn't understand the concept of movies but revealed that she is a big fan of Kristen Wiig, noting her film "Welcome of Me," opens Friday.

Fallon then asked Wiig to perform her "hit" song, "Wonderful, Wonderful, Wonderful." The actress was caught off-guard, but didn't shy away from improvising a tune.
