I remember when I was younger someone told me not to judge a book a by its cover and boy was I wrong about how I judge Dolph Lundgren. When I look at the action hero, I think he looks like a dumb blonde bodybuilder. Turns out he is actually really freaking brilliant. He confirmed to Jay Leno yesterday on The Tonight Show that he went to MIT on a Fulbright scholarship and he is actually Chemical Engineer. Boy do I feel stupid for thinking he was stupid.
Over the weekend news broke that The Tonight Show was forced to layoff around 20 employees and that Jay Leno had to take a paycut. Yesterday during his monologue he confirmed the news by saying, “Welcome to The Tonight Show or as Comcast calls us The Expendables.” He then went on to say that being #1 in the ratings is frowned upon at NBC, you know because they are doing so bad in the ratings during primetime. But my favorite dig that he made towards his bosses is when he said he knew something was up when he found a peacock head in his bed. That one I liked.
When it comes to the layoffs, I don’t understand why he didn’t take a bigger paycut to keep all of those employees because he has said time and time again that he doesn’t touch the money he makes off of the show. Instead he lives on the money he makes from doing comedy gigs on his time off. Which is hefty amount of green.
BTW when I heard about the layoffs and his paycut, my initial reaction was that Comcast was Team Coco.
Kelsey Grammer was on The Tonight Show yesterday and Jay Leno asked him about his new tattoo. So Frasier stood up and lowered his pants and showed the ink he got for his wife Kate on his hip. Really I am not sure I need to see that. Especially because it kind of looks like he manscapes and that is not something I ever wanted to imagine. Another thing I didn’t want to picture is what it must be like for his wife every time she goes down on him to her name right there. I don’t know if I would want to stare at my name while I am giving a guy oral. A money sign yes, my name no!
Steve Carell is on The Tonight Show tonight and he told Jay Leno that the word “lunch-meats” makes him cringe and he considers it offensive. He didn’t say why and I can’t figure out what is so bad about. Unless he had issues with bologna sandwiches when was kid? It isn’t like the cold cut smells bad and I am sure with his schnoz he a bad smelling meat could make you cringe.
You know those pill ads that lists 101 hazardous side effects like death, but they make the person appear happy as they are doing their normal routine outside at the park and such? Well that is what the promo to Katie Couric’s new talk show reminds me of and with just as many hazardous side effect.
