She became known as the ‘Crying Piccolo Girl’ when she was caught on camera crying but still playing her piccolo, after Villanova lost to North Carolina State in the NCAA Tournament over the weekend.

Chalifoux sat in with The Roots Monday night, and talked about her quick rise to fame.

"My dad was at the game and I didn't want him to see me crying but then its turned into like everyone saw me crying," she said.

Fallon gave her a gift basket and tickets to a Taylor Swift concert.
