Hillary Clinton riffs on Republicans telling her to smile more
'Well you don't talk about ISIS with a big grin on your face'http://uk.businessinsider.com/hillary-clinton-smile-jimmy-fallon-2016-9?r=US&IR=T Report from Hillary's appearance on last night's Tonight Show

"They want to see someone who's going to protect us and be strong and tough," Fallon added.
Clinton responded:
"It's especially tricky for women. And it just is because you know there's a lot of serious things. The other night, I was on a show and being asked about ISIS and Iran and I was serious.

Clinton was referring to NBC's Commander-In-Chief Forum that news anchor Matt Lauer hosted on September 7, where both she and her Republican opponent, Donald Trump, discussed national security.
