Christina Ricci took aim at The Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon for his recent segment with mixed martial artist Conor McGregor, amid the fighter’s past legal issues.
The Emmy-nominated actress, 46, reposted a meme that had been circulating blasting Fallon, 51, following the June 16 appearance by McGregor, 37.
The Santa Monica native in the repost made reference to a 2024 court case involving McGregor in which he was sued by stylist Nikita Hand, amid allegations of sexual assault.
In the wake of an eight-day trial in Dublin, the court awarded Hand about $285,000 and another $1.5 million in court costs.
The repost from the Yellowjackets actress recounted some of the graphic details that emerged amid the legal proceedings.
It read, ‘Conor McGregor raped a woman so brutally that the EMT who saw her commented on the severity of her bruising.

The Emmy-nominated actress reposted the message from the account @mushroom.marauder
‘She also had to have the tampon she was using when he raped her surgically removed, as it had been shoved so far inside her.’
The post, originating from the account @mushroom.marauder, concluded, ‘Why the ABSOLUTE F*** is this piece of human garbage being given a platform on Jimmy Fallon’s show? Shame on you, Jimmy.’
The UFC staple in July of 2025 had lost an appeal in the civil court case following its ruling that he had ‘brutally raped and battered’ Hand in Dublin in December 2018. The appeal had been dismissed ‘in its entirety.’
Hand had filed the civil lawsuit after prosecutors in Dublin would not charge McGregor, citing a lack of evidence and low chance to convict.
McGregor denied the claims against him, calling them fabricated and saying that his relations with Hand had been consensual.
He has made headlines in recent years for comments opposing immigration and critical of various politicians in Ireland.
