Leno misses The Tonight Show due to hospital admission

Jay Leno missed two shows last week due to having to pay a visit to hospital. It’s not clear what Jay was admitted to hospital for, as NBC have been keeping that confidential, but it’s not thought to be anything serious.

Leno had to miss shows on Thursday and Friday last week – they were replaced with reruns.

This stint in hospital was the first time in the history of Jay hosting The Tonight Show that he’s had to miss any tapings. A spokesperson for Jay Leno said the sickness wasn’t “symptomatic of anything serious”. He’s now been released from hospital and is expected to return to The Tonight Show straight away.

Leno has around a month’s worth of shows to host before he hands over the reigns of The Tonight Show to former Late Night host Conan O’Brien. Jay moves to a new weeknight 10pm NBC show later this year.

Britain’s Got Talent featured on Late Night

A contestant from the UK talent show Britain’s Got Talent, Susan Boyle, has become a huge hit Stateside. The video of her on Britain’s Got Talent made it in to a segment on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon last week. Susan Boyle found fame in America last week – having been mentioned on CBS News (who also got a US exclusive interview with her) and being one of the most watched clips on YouTube that week.
