Sarah Kobos, a senior photo research coordinator for “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” slammed the late-night host Tuesday, claiming he skipped out on a daily production meeting over pay amid the Hollywood writers’ strike. However, a “Tonight Show” insider told The Post that neither Fallon, 48, nor “Late Night” host Seth Meyers, 49 — whom Kobos later mentioned — are typically not in those particular meetings.

“He wasn’t even at the meeting this morning to tell us we won’t get paid after this week,” Kobos reacted to Fallon’s interview. “@jimmyfallon please support your staff. Had fun bowling with ya last week, but a fun party won’t pay my rent.”

“I posted the tweets because my coworkers and I are concerned about our livelihoods and health, and are lacking answers from management,” she wrote in a direct message. “I support my coworkers who are striking and think it [is] foul how the rest of the staff and crew are being treated. We love our jobs and hope for change if there is enough attention on the issue.”

I was going to ask if extemporaneous jokes and improv count.
