Update (3/24 10:45am): For a limited time, Loopy HD has been discounted to $3.99 (50% off).

Jimmy Fallon’s MacBook may have mysteriously lost its illuminated Apple logo but it seems his love for Apple products hasn’t wavered.

Last night he teamed up with one of America’s biggest rock legends, Billy Joel, to create a doo-wop song using an iPad Air connected to two Bluetooth microphones. The duo utilized the iOS app, Loopy, to create a continuous background loop of their singing as a foundation for the song.

For the third consecutive year, Apple CEO Tim Cook has ranked #1 on Out Magazine’s The Power List, which features prominent gay men and women with influence in American public culture.

The list has featured the likes of Rachel Maddow, Anderson Cooper, and Nate Silver, but most notable is the Alabama native’s lack of public acknowledgement regarding his sexual orientation.

Eligible bachelor or not, Cook shouldn’t have trouble sleeping at night, as he topped another important list last year: highest paid CEO.
