Jay Leno Hospitalized

Posted Apr 23rd 2009 5:14PM by TMZ Staff

Jay LenoJay Leno went to the hospital today after complaining he wasn't feeling well.

Leno was not taken to the hospital by ambulance -- he either drove himself or was driven by a staffer. NBC officials have confirmed tonight's show taping has been canceled -- a repeat will air instead.

A rep for Leno says he's still in the hospital for observation.

UPDATE -- A rep for "The Tonight Show" says Leno will miss Friday's episode as well. But, the rep adds, "Jay Leno is doing just fine. He was kidding around with the hospital staff and running his monologue jokes by the doctors and the nurses. He's expected back to work on Monday."

8. You can only live so long with a show that resolutely unfunny... real late night died a long time ago.
PS He's breathin' too much expensive car exhaust from that collection.

11. Screw all of you, I hope nothing bad happens to him. Riding on a ambulance is scary anyway.

13. I've had TMZ headlines on my homepage forever and never have they scared me so. Jay Leno, you know better than anyone the importance of keeping your vehicles in good condition. When is now a good time to be as good to your most important vehicle as you are to all the rest of them? A little food for thought to go with your broccoli, green beans and spinach. I'm looking forward to you being a well maintained antique someday. Prayers for you and Mavis.

15. 10. Screw all of you, I hope nothing bad happens to him. Riding on a ambulance is scary anyway.

I totally agree, Allya'll. That's why I suggest Jay ride INSIDE the ambulance.
