Former Tonight Show host Jay Leno is the latest celebrity to weigh in on the Donald Trump/Billy Bush leaked tape scandal, skewering the former Today show co-host for his involvement in the controversial 2005 recording.
Leno threw uncharacteristically caustic barbs at Bush during a special appearance on Monday's The Tonight Show, in which he "tagged in" for Jimmy Fallon during his monologue.
While it's been nearly two years now since Fallon officially took over the reins of NBC's late night talk show, Leno, who has guested since his departure, comfortably slipped back into his old rhythm with a couple of good-humored topical jokes.
"Hillary Clinton got quite a scare tonight. I guess a trick-or-treater came to the door dressed as a lie detector," he joked. "And I tell you, that Donald Trump, he is a smart businessman. When kids rang his bell and yelled, 'Trick-or-treat,' Trump yelled, 'Trick!' and before the kids could grab any...

Jay Leno is back. The Jay Leno's Garage host appeared on The Tonight Show Monday to help out current host Jimmy Fallon after he "pulled something" while telling a joke. Leno happily tagged in and kicked off a monologue of nonstop stand-up comedy jokes that included jabs about Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump, Billy Bush and the struggling economy. Leno kicked off his monologue with some timely jokes about Halloween (with a political spin, naturally). "Hillary Clinton got quite a scare tonight. I guess a trick-or-treater came to the door dressed as a lie detector," Leno quipped as he grabbed his anxiety-ridden heart. Sticking with the Halloween theme, Leno also made a joke about a study that...

This is one of the very few times Jay Leno isn't giving us car envy. While filming for an episode of Jay Leno's Garage, the comedian and car collector got into a car accident while on a test ride in a Hemi Under Glass with stunt driver Bob Riggle. Fortunately, both men were uninjured in the crash, but as you can see in the clip above, it was certainly a harrowing ordeal for the both of them. Riggle lost control of the car shortly after Leno could be heard saying, "2,500 horsepower on two wheels. What could go wrong?" It wasn't long before the men experienced firsthand what could (and did) go wrong with the stunt. Leno initially seemed shaken by the ordeal, but after...

The Tonight Show is far from cancelled. In fact, Jimmy Fallon's run on the late night NBC talk show has brought it new life. However, Jay Leno ran that show for many years successfully, and he is returning to television today with a new show on CNBC called Jay Leno's Garage.
This means he had to take the time to remind his fans he is still alive and kicking, and he is ready for a new challenge.
On Tuesday night, he stopped by to take over for Jimmy during The Tonight Show's opening monologue. His appearance is now the talk of the town this morning.

Jay Leno appeared on Today Wednesday morning to talk about his upcoming show on CNBC, Jay Leno's Garage, and mentioned that he still keeps in touch with some of his former competitors/colleagues, including Jimmy Fallon, Stephen Colbert and Seth Meyers. Notice anyone missing? Leno noticeably left out Jimmy Kimmel, his former competitor with whom he famously feuds. But according to the former Tonight Show host, he doesn't have a problem with him—Kimmel is the one with the problem.

Jay Leno may still be smarting from that time Jimmy Kimmel slayed him during the Jay/Conan "Tonight Show" feud, since he's now dissing Kimmel's "mean-based" humor as the source of his not-quite-"Tonight" ratings. It's time for a late-night catfight!
Jimmy, a huge David Letterman fan, was probably already anti-Jay after the first "Tonight Show" feud between Jay and Dave, when they fought for Carson's chair. When Jay ended up in a late night battle with Conan O'Brien, Jimmy appeared to back Team Coco. Jimmy broke out his not-so-flattering Jay impression on "Jimmy Kimmel Live," then pretty much destroyed Jay -- to his face -- as Jay's own guest on "The Jay Leno Show." Here's how that went:

Jay Leno might have been off the air for a while, but now he's back and slamming his former competitors of the late-night talk show world. While promoting his new show, Jay Leno's Garage, the former Tonight Show host opened up about the changing dynamic of late-night television and why he thinks some shows do better than others.

Because the show makes you arrogant," Leno explained. "I think that's Jimmy Kimmel's problem. I think he's a talented guy, I think he's funny. But he has a...

New York (AP) Jay Leno is coming back to "The Tonight Show" -- at least for one night. The show's former host will be a guest on Jimmy Fallon's version of "Tonight" on Friday. It will be the first time he's been back at the NBC institution since signing off after nearly 22 years as host last February. Fallon moved the show from California to New York and quickly established himself as the new king of late-night TV. Leno briefly appeared in one of Fallon's TV parodies, "House of Cue Cards," but has not returned as a guest. There was some talk after Leno left that he might make a guest appearance on David Letterman's competing CBS show. That hasn't happened yet, but the "Late Show'' said Leno has a "standing offer'' to appear before Letterman retires next year. For his first time back in late-night, Leno remained loyal to NBC.

It's been nearly seven years since Jay Leno's Garage first debuted on the internet, but the late night TV host has recently redoubled his efforts to show off his collection of classic rides. In the past year, Leno has maintained a diligent upload schedule, with car fans regularly salivating over his impressive collective of more than 150 vehicles. Most recently, Jay Leno's Garage has left its host's home and ventured to the collection of another media empire. The series' latest episode takes viewers to Pixar Animation Studios' Motorama, an annual car show for the company's employees. The pristine condition of some of the Pixar team's vintage whips is closely tied to the two Cars films. The episode is hosted by Jay Ward, who introduces himself as Cars' "franchise guardian," making him the curator behind Pixar's shiny collection. Unsurprisingly, one of the stars of the episode is Pixar Chief Creative...
