Jay Leno Retirement: Imminent?

A new rumor suggests that Jay Leno will retire from The Tonight Show next spring. For real this time. Seriously. No backsies for a change.

A pair of high level NBC executives say the network is concerned that Jimmy Kimmel’s move to 11:35 p.m. on ABC is sucking up all the younger late-night viewers – and that Jimmy Fallon should therefore be installed as Tonight Show host before it’s too late.

“Kimmel has done extremely well,” a network veteran tells The Hollywood Reporter. “Jay wins overall, but on any given night, it’s neck-and-neck in 18-49. I understand where they might have

House (Arrest) Party: Lindsay Lohan Throws Down on the Roof!

How does Lindsay Lohan live in such agony?

The actress suffered through day 18 of her house arrest by having several friends over to her sweet ass Venice beach house for a rooftop BBQ party.

She was seen smoking cigarettes and laughing her head off in two different outfits. Ankle monitor and all, life sure is good for the convicted thief.

Lindsay later Tweeted about a fun item on their agenda: “so excited for the season premiere of Keeping Up With The Kardashians tonight on E!”

Puke.

Lohan is in the midst of serving 35 days of house arrest in connection with the theft of a $2,500 necklace

Lindsay Lohan to Serve Jail Time Under Home Confinement?

Despite reports that Lindsay Lohan will plead no contest to theft, the star may be poised to avoid going to jail entirely, according to new reports.

Here’s the deal. By pleading no contest to misdemeanor theft, it’s likely LiLo won’t see an uptick in her 120-day sentence for violating probation.

If that takes pace, once she serves 120 days, she’s off the hook. However …

The L.A. County Sheriff’s Department, which runs the jail where Lindsay must do the time, routinely allows inmates to serve their time at home.

Provided they wear an electronic monitoring device, of course.

Taylor Swift Laughs AT, Not With Jay Leno

Taylor Swift visited the Tonight Show on Tuesday night, and her reaction to one of Jay Leno’s jokes that BOMBED was one of the highlights for us.

A lot of people think Jay is a hilarious guy. Taylor is one of them, but fortunately for all things sane, not in the way Leno likely thinks he’s funny.

Case in point? Leno struck out with what he was hoping was a charming impression of fashion photographers. The silence? Not un-awkward.

It started when Swift talked about her recent work for Cover Girl, which she says is a lot deal of fun, and even involved a thing called a “leaping coach.”

“What’s even better than being able to appear in the Tonight Show with Jay Leno? Having my bestfriend be able to come with Rebecca Black on GMA

Chris Medina Music Video: "What Are Words"

Amidst a sea of J. Lo’s tears, Chris Medina was eliminated from American Idol this week.

But that isn’t stopping the aspiring singer from pursuing his dreams. The former contestant, whose fiancee suffered a brain injury in a 2009 car accident, will appear on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno this evening and perform the single “What Are Words.”

Lady Gaga Professes Love For Madonna, Says Pop Icon Supports and Approves of "Born This Way"

Lady Gaga has been accused of ripping off Madonna with her newest single, “Born This Way.” On the Tonight Show last night, she didn’t really refute this.

“You know, there is really no one that is a more adoring and loving Madonna fan than me,” she said. “I am the hugest fan personally and professionally.”

It sounds like the feeling is reciprocal, too.

Gov. Schwarzenegger Tells Jay Leno: ‘No One Cares If You Smoke A Joint Or Not’ (VIDEO)

(HMG Celebrity News) – California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger appeared on NBC’s “Tonight Show” on Monday and told Jay Leno Monday night that it was the wording and perhaps a bill that he recently signed that brought down Prop 19.  Acting and speaking with the freedom of an outgoing politician he signed SB 1449, into law five weeks ago, a bill which reduces the state’s punishment for possession of up to an ounce of marijuana. The maximum penalty is now $100, with no arrest or criminal record, which Schwarzenegger equated to “a speeding ticket.”

Conan O’Brien debuts name for new show

[HMG] – Since the Tonight Show was stolen from under him in January, Conan O’Brien has been almost a ghost. But all you Team Coco fans can relax – His new show starts on November 8, and now it even has its own name.

“It’s ‘Conan.’ Simple, pure – like the guy himself,” O’Brien says in this promo video released to TeamCoco.com.

To millions, Conan was the star of late-night TV for seventeen years – First with ‘Late Night,’ then the doomed nine-month flirtation with the ‘Tonight Show.’ He finally quit on January 22 when the NBC suits tried to use him to help save Jay Leno by moving Coco’s show
