On Monday night's episode of "The Tonight Show" talk show host Jimmy Fallon gave an all-out performance of Iggy Azalea's famous song "Fancy."

Fallon sang the song not as himself, but as Neil Young, and was joined by the Crosby, Nash & Stills. A video of his performance became viral online and now the song's original songstress, Iggy Azalea, has expressed her support.

Azalea retweeted two links to Fallon's performance of her song and wrote, "This made my whole day. So amazing - I am not worthy."

In a follow up tweet, Azalea expressed that Fallon's video served as a breather from her usually toxic timeline, according to NZ Herald.

"Every time I'm on Twitter it's some bullsh*t. Well, besides this whole Jimmy thing which made my day," the Australian singer wrote.

In yet another gracious tweet, Azalea wrote to her millions of followers, "Thanks to whoever came up with this idea... brilliantly done guys."

"Fancy" has been sitting at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 charts for the past six weeks and was taken off of Azalea's debut album "The New Classic." The song also serves as her first breakthrough hit with Charli XCX, the Daily Mail reported.

Azalea's "Fancy" was also included on the Twitter Trending 100 Chart after Fallon's performance, which means a win-win situation for the 23-year-old singer/rapper, the Daily Telegraph revealed.

Additionally, "Fancy" has also been moving from the 15th to the 3rd spot on Twitter and has been dubbed as the Most Talked About Song on the social media website.

Meanwhile, Monday night's performance of "Fancy" was not really Fallon's first-time to give his spin on the song. Back in April, the funnyman got into a lip-sync battle against Emma Stone.

At that time, Fallon performed "Fancy" but without any sound. The video, which was uploaded to YouTube has received more than 20 million views and still counting as of present time.
