Jay Leno

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

O.J. Simpson passed away this week at the age of 76, and according to our inside source, YEARS ago he wrote a letter and locked it in a safe with instructions for his family to read it only after his death. While the contents of the letter have yet to be revealed, there is much speculation that the letter might actually be a confession to the killings of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend, Ron Goldman. As of now, the family is too busy making memorial arrangements, but apparently they’re also deciding on whether to make the letter public. Keep in mind it might NOT be a confession, it could also be a denial, allowing O.J. to take his secrets to the grave.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard made headlines again this week after debuting her new nose. Gypsy underwent plastic surgery having a rhinoplasty, but we are hearing this is only the start. The surgery was compliments of a local plastic surgeon close to where she’s living. My source says that Gypsy is also planning to have more work done to her face, including softening her jaw line as well as liposuction on her thighs.

Aoki Lee Simmons (Russell Simmons and Kimora Lee Simmons’ daughter) nearly became a household name after she was spotted on a romantic vacation with restauranteur Vittorio Assaf – who happens to be 45 years older than she is. According to our source, the entire thing was a PUBLICITY STUNT, as Aoki is hoping to launch a career as an actress, model, or TV personality. We heard that SHE tipped off photographers, because let’s face it, she’s not someone who’s on the paparazzi radar.

Sad news came out this week that Jay Leno was granted a court order conservatorship over his wife Mavis, who is suffering from dementia. We are hearing from our source that Jay has hired special memory care nurses who work around the clock at their Beverly Hills home. Jay is committed to never having his wife moved into a facility and luckily for him, he has the financial wherewithal to keep her at home indefinitely. We also heard that is putting together a star fundraiser to raise money for dementia research, which he plans to host later this year.

Jeff Bezos and his fiancé Lauren Sanchez made their White House debut at a state dinner for the prime Minister of Japan. We just heard this interesting tidbit: Lauren was originally planning to wear a Japanese inspired kimono gown to the event, but at the last minute she was talked OUT of it for fear that it would be taken as cultural appropriation. The overtly sexy red gown that she wound up wearing was originally for another event but she had her private jet whisk it from their home in LA and bring it to Washington, D.C. just in time for the event.

YOU CAN BET YOUR LIFE JAY LENO IS COMING BACK

Driving around town in his immaculate vintage cars is just not enough for Jay Leno. He’s a little bored. Yes, he has his car series Jay Leno’s Garage, but it’s just not enough. He left The Tonight Show in 2014 and misses telling jokes on TV. SOMEBODY came up with the idea of Jay hosting a revival of Groucho Marx’s You Bet Your Life – a 50’s quiz show – and this could be the answer. Just like Groucho, the main part of the show will be Jay joking around while interviewing the assorted contestants. Jay loves to talk to regular people and draw humor out of them. (His man-in-the-street interviews were always fun.) Contestants appear in female and female pairs and answer questions to win money. Watch for it next fall.

JAY LENO GOT A CRAVING

We usually see Jay Leno behind the wheel of an unusual car enjoying the fresh air (thanks to the current lack of traffic) but today he made an important stop. This is another guy we have never come across in a supermarket, but times change, and Jay paid a visit to Gelson’s in Century City – without gloves or mask. He was only interested in the ice cream department and after carefully making his selection, he went right back to his car.

JAY LENO AND TIM ALLEN: MEN AND THEIR TOYS

There’s nothing Jay Leno and Tim Allen like better than examining magnificent cars. The two comics hosted and judged a car show in Boca Raton featuring 175 of the finest collector cars and motorcycles. Jay has hundreds of cars and motorcycles of his own and tries to drive them all. Tim Allen has a weakness for vintage American cars – especially the muscle cars. When asked how many vehicles he owns, Tim won’t get specific – he says “More than I need.”

JAY LENO TAKES A STAND AGAINST BILL COSBY

127501PCN_Carousel_2lenocut

Finally, a male celebrity has to courage to condemn Bill Cosby because of those sexual assault allegations! Most of his contemporaries avoid the issue, but Jay Leno didn’t mince words. He said “I don’t know why it’s so hard to believe women. You go to Saudi Arabia and you need 2 women to testify against a man. Here you need 25!” We love Jay for saying this, but we have to give credit to his wife also. Mavis has been fighting for women’s rights in Afghanistan for YEARS and she keeps Jay educated on the subject.

THE REAL STORY BEHND THE SHARON OSBOURNE – JAY LENO FLING

celebrity_plastic_sharoncut

Sharon Osbourne has been making a big thing out of the fact that she had a brief fling with Jay Leno 37 years ago when they were both single. She embarrassed Jay when she went into detail about the brevity of their coupling and Jay’s apparent lack of skill, on the Howard Stern show. What she left out was the fact that SHE stalked Jay – she saw his stand-up act and got his number and started calling him every night. One night he accepted her invitation and came to her house to meet her. Perhaps Jay wasn’t so attracted to Sharon because she weighed 100 pounds MORE in those days! Since then, she’s had gastric bypass and lots of plastic surgery and looks quite different. Jay is too much of a gentleman to remind her of those details.

THE TWO FACES OF TERI HATCHER

129674PCN_Teri02cut

The former “Desperate Housewives” star keeps herself in sensational shape, but she still won’t win any popularity contests. Teri Hatcher didn’t exactly endear herself to her costars on any of the series she’s done. There were always rumors that she was difficult and inconsiderate but even more details emerged in the book “Behind the Curtain,” written by a Jay Leno producer. The producer described Hatcher as having two personalities – one was smart and charming, and the other was moody and demanding. You never knew which one you were going to get. Our favorite tidbit described how Teri was furious when she was bumped from a show appearance by President Obama and demanded a Louis Vuitton handbag to ease her pain. She got flowers.

JUSTIN BIEBER FINALLY SHOWS SIGNS OF GROWING UP

We can’t help but dwell for a moment on Justin Bieber’s appearance on Jay Leno last night. Justin has always looked years younger than his actual age. For the first time, the 17 year old singer seemed to be growing up. At last! First of all, he got rid of that little boy bowl haircut that he fussed about all the time. With his new short spikey hair he looks a little like the late teen actor Corey Haim. Even more important, his voice is definitely getting deeper when he speaks so his singing voice is in transition. It’s about time.

JAY LENO SCORED THE KANYE WEST APOLOGY

jay lenocut

How lucky was Jay Leno to have Kanye West booked on the debut of his new show tonight? Conan and Dave must be grinding their teeth. Apparently Kanye was also grateful for the opportunity to apologize for his appalling behavior at the MTV Video awards. It looks like egotistical Kanye was very surprised to find out that other people didn’t agree with his opinion that Beyonce should have won the award that Taylor Swift received. His advisors are frantically pushing him to lay off the obnoxious behavior, but he does love attention. His apologetic appearance should give nervous Jay some extra oomph for opening night.

JAY LENO IS SUMMERING IN EUROPE

You don’t see photos of Jay Leno vacationing at tropical islands or golf resorts. When he’s traveling, it’s usually on weekends from one comedy gig to another. But he’s got the whole summer off before he starts hosting his new talk show in September, so he took his wife Mavis to Europe. Above, they were photographed leaving the theater district in London. Mavis seems to be having a good time.
