The Tonight Show with Jay Leno

Only at our show will you see wild cats, kangaroos and a North Korean leader running around backstage. I chatted with Julie Scardina from Sea World, Gilbert Gottfried, correspondent Nick Thune and musician Seal. See what Seal had to say about his sexy, steamy scene with Heidi (say that 10 times fast!).

Like Jay, Patrick Dempsey loves fast cars. So it was no surprise that his need for speed continued backstage. He had another engagement to get to so I asked him a few quick questions.

Mindy Kaling from “The Office” told us why she only gets booked with the hunkiest stars. And musical guests Train stop by to talk about their 8th appearance on our show.

It was 113 degrees in Los Angeles yesterday and things were just as hot on (and off) stage. I spoke with Lauren Graham from NBC’s “Parenthood” to exchange “scary looks” and the legendary Vanilla Ice to find out how he stays cool in the heat. See what he had to say and watch him freestyle rap backstage!

Dwyane Wade is no stranger to trash-talking, so he had fun when Zachary Levi came on stage wearing a Lakers jersey. We caught up with them both backstage to talk about their friendly rivalry. Zachary and I talked about being former blockbuster video employees and my fear of Lou Ferrigno. And check out the backstage footage of Rickey Minor and The Tonight Show band as they get hyped for disco night with Gloria Gaynor.

Here’s a photo gallery from September for those of you who like to see what goes on behind the scenes. See Jay and celebs like Bill Maher, Ben Affleck and Kate Walsh in their dressing rooms and off-stage before and after the show!

In this backstage show I talk with Jimmy Smits about his relationship with Jay and the steamy clips from his new show “Outlaw.” I also talk with new BFFs Rickey Minor and “America’s Got Talent” sensation Jackie Evancho. And Kira Soltanovich (the voice of Photo Booth) teases me backstage and talks candidly about working while pregnant.

It’s been about two months since Eric the Page was involved in a practical joke involving Jeremy Piven and his fake backstage tirade. In the end it made for great television and quite a story for Eric.

Jeremy made good on his promise to have Eric on an episode of “Entourage” and we were there with our backstage cameras.

Last night was a flinch-fest w ith Ryan Reynolds and Betty White. Find out what they were really thinking when we pointed ping-pong cannons at their pretty faces. I also spoke with Tommy Lee from “Methods Of Mayhem” to discuss pork tacos and his exciting surprise for fans.

Ed Helms heard the sound of silence when Sheryl Crow destroyed his guitar in our cold open. See what he had to say about his broken instrument and the upcoming season of “The Office.” And Casey Affleck gave us some more insights into the making of his film "I'm Still Here" with Joaquin Phoenix.

Justin Timberlake loves the LA Lakers, but on the show Jay surprised him with the Miami Heat’s own Chris Bosh. See what they had to say about their onstage bet and the trash talk that went along with it.

I also spoke with Jane Lynch about her Emmy, hosting SNL and the upcoming season of “Glee.” And OK Go gives us more insight on their new video featuring a whole lot of dogs!
