David Letterman did not enjoy a visit by legendary performer Shirley MacLaine, and, by the end of the interview, neither did the Oscar-winning actress. She was there for a new movie called “Madame Sousatzka.”
At first, the host who was previously, in 1986, called the A-word by Cher, was hamming it up. He quizzed MacLaine relentlessly about her theories and beliefs in past lives. She didn’t want to talk about it. Finally, she blurted out that Cher was right to call him the A-word. It went downhill from there. He ended it with the standard catchphrase that they were out of time.
Justin Timberlake
If you didn’t know Justin Timberlake and Jimmy Fallon are in a BFF bromance, now you do. They have one of the most adorable friendships of all the celebrities. On "The Tonight Show," Timberlake and Fallon do an SNL-like skit.
Dressed up as 13-year-olds at summer camp, the buddies get in trouble with the camp leader for staying up all night chatting. It gets a bit out of hand when the two belt out a duet of Alanis Morissette’s song “Ironic.” They go to bed, finally, but not before Timberlake says, “Best friends forever?” and Fallon answers, “Best friends forever.”
Lady Gaga
No one knows what to expect when Gaga sits down for an interview. This time she was dressed in a batgirl getup. The costume included studded knee-high boots and a bat mask. A black leather jacket covered a leather bikini.
She was there to announce "Born this Way." “Pick it up in stores,” the media-savvy diva said. Talking about the NYC underground music scene where she used to do a variety show in a bikini, she instructed, “If you take your clothes off, it’s amazing what will happen.” Letterman didn’t bat an eye. He was in his element, enjoying her performance.
Jay Leno & Jimmy Kimmel
Jay Leno did not start the long-lasting feud between the two late-night show hosts, but he shifted it into high gear when he declared that Jimmy Kimmel has a mean streak and that’s the reason he’s in third place in the ratings. Ouch!
The feud was lit with a Leno impression. Jimmy Kimmel mocked Leno relentlessly for an entire episode of " The Jimmy Kimmel Show." Leno told the "Today" show that he never had any problems with Kimmel. In 2017, the feud ended. Kimmel’s newborn needed open-heart surgery, and Leno called to wish him the best. We guess all's well that ends well.
Tracy Morgan
When "SNL" stand-up comedian Tracy Morgan sat down next to Conan, he was starring in "The Last OG." Five years earlier on the show, he was outrageous as usual. Morgan called the president a gang banger and said he should get a teardrop tattoo.
Since then, both of these individuals have been through some serious changes. Conan's show ended up coming to an end, and now he has a podcast. While Morgan suffered a serious accident back in 2014 that he has since recovered from. We're just relieved that these two hilarious individuals are still alive and kicking and doing their thing.
