That's so cool for Leno to say such nice things.

[nathanrusso]

She was awesome. She goofs on everything/everyone no matter what side you're on. Perfect

[CompoundNihilist]

Jay was incredibly patient, wasn't he? He's always nice to fans when he's out and about.

[bluelake]

She didn't need to ask the same question twice.

I miss Jay Leno being on TV every week. My absolute favorite late night host.

[MamboKing]

At first, I thought Leno had just the collar buttoned, sporting the vato look

[karunak]

Jay has always been supportive of comedians..and very patient with the paparazzi

How long are you going to follow Jay after he answers your question? Leave the man alone.

[RWRogers]

Happen to agree with him. I enjoyed it and her. I’m stoked to see her raising up to new heights

[maryjones]

Jay my favorite late night host! and very generous with the answer about Nikki !

[britneyserrano]

I Love hearing the OG praise her she did amazing!

[billlumberg]

Jay out here looking like Andy Millinocus

Johnny Carson was great, but he also didn't really have competition. Then Leno and Letterman became the big stars of late night. Now there are a dozen late night hosts and it doesn't have the same level of status it once did.

[tommcbride]

Jay is a really nice guy and an ace mechanic who moonlights as a comedian.

[dcoolu]

He was telling HER not to walk into a tree

[lonelytraveller]

I'm just curious if the background is in LA? Is the place spared from the fire?

[d.martin]

Jay has had a rough year and it shows.

[_IMNNO]

He is right to say to that, “late night doesn’t have the same impact as it used to.” I mean more people listen to podcasts than watch television.

[maverick]

Agree with Jay Leno. Celebrities were FIRED UP with nikki’s sense of humor

[MisterMooster]

I do wish Nikki wouldnt have had that lip surgery, her faced looked so much better before- I still think she's cool but I wish women women stop doing these lip surgeries, natural is better for sure.
