Jamie Lee Curtis, 66, stuns fans as she dons skimpy leotard to recreate ‘Perfect’ aerobics scene

Jamie Lee Curtis has delighted fans as she recreated the aerobics scene from the hit movie Perfect.

People who tuned into The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday were given a big dose of nostalgia.

Curtis brought back her iconic aerobics routine from the 1985 film Perfect. The 64-year-old actress proved she’s still got the moves nearly 40 years later.

Dressed in a striped one-piece leotard reminiscent of her look in the film, Curtis led an aerobics session alongside host Jimmy Fallon, who stood in for her original co-star John Travolta.

Fallon, 50, joined Curtis in performing dramatic aerobics moves, including side-to-side thrusts that mirrored the memorable choreography from the movie.

The duo also incorporated quirky props into their routine.

At one point, they seductively ate pizza while maintaining eye contact, drawing laughs from the audience.

Curtis upped the ante by pulling out a bottle of Champagne, which she poured into glasses and onto herself.

The segment took another comedic turn when a white dove unexpectedly flew out of Fallon’s workout shorts during his routine, leaving Curtis visibly surprised.

Fallon also sent Curtis a video of himself mid-workout.

The skit culminated in a dramatic scene where Curtis seamlessly transitioned from aerobics instructor to surgeon.

As two doctors rolled out a patient on a gurney, Curtis used a defibrillator to save the patient’s life without breaking character.

Fallon joined in by dancing behind her, capping off the performance.

Fans have flooded in with positive comments, as one person wrote: “OMG she’s such a great sport! She’s always able to laugh at herself and still be taken seriously as she deserves! I still love her after all these years…thanks Jimmy!”

A second person said: “Too too much fun. So funny. Love Jamie Lee and how she is willing to have a little comedy remake.”

A third person added: “Omg. This really brings back 80’s nostalgia. Now I’m going to have to go back and watch this movie because I haven’t seen it in decades.”

During her appearance, Curtis also got emotional discussing the devastating Palisades fire, which has directly impacted her home.

“As you know, where I live is on fire right now,” Curtis shared. “Literally, the entire city of the Pacific Palisades is burning. I flew here last night. I was on the plane and started getting texts. It’s f***ing gnarly, you guys.”

She continued: “It’s a catastrophe in Southern California. Obviously, there have been horrific fires in many places. This is literally where I live.”

In response, Curtis announced she would donate $1 million to relief funds supporting communities affected by the wildfires.
