We’ve already had a BUNCH of great Madonna news today … first we got our FIRST LOOK at her vibrant and powerful album cover art for her new album M.D.N.A. and then we got our FIRST LOOK at her performance stage for her big Super Bowl XLVI halftime show which will take place LIVE this coming Sunday. Right now, we get to watch Madonna‘s full video interview from her appearance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno last night. While Maddy didn’t really drop any new information about her album or SB performance, she did her duty to promote her directorial debut film W.E. and she shared a cute story about her first MTV Video Music Awards performance back in 1984. Click below to watch it all.

Earlier this week, we reported on the fact that Jimmy Fallon is being sued for discrimination (for allegedly firing a male employee because he only likes to work with women) and now we are hearing about ANOTHER late night TV host, Jay Leno, being taken to court. What is going on? Is this a case of people being overly sensitive or our TV guys being insensitive and inappropriate?

Yesterday we got to see a short preview of Lindsay Lohan‘s pretaped interview on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and right now, we get to watch the whole thing. In an effort to do a bit of damage control after getting slapped with another jail sentence for probation violation last Friday, Lindsay made a surprise appearance on The Tonight Show in an effort to try and get her career back on track. Apparently, getting a role in the planned Gotti biopic has inspired the young actress to take her career seriously … and step one of her career rejuvenation is making clear to the public that she is a changed person. Click below to see what Lindsay had to say on The Tonight Show last night.

Lindsay Lohan, who went to court last Friday to begin proceedings leading up to the start of her theft case and got slapped with a 120-day jail sentence for probation violation (which she is now appealing), made a surprise visit to The Tonight Show with Jay Leno here in LA last night to give not only her first interview since being sentenced to jail time (again) but her first TV interview in ages! Because she recently nabbed a role in the Gotti biopic, she had something other than jail to talk about so the interview (which was taped yesterday and will air tonight) was kind of a win/win for both Lindsay and Leno.

Back in August of last year, Janet Jackson announced that she would be releasing a new album in the “first quarter of 2010″ and it would seem that time has not yet arrived. Janet‘s producer and ex-beau Jermaine Dupri announced on Twitter yesterday that a new Janet single, taken from her new soundtrack album from her new film Why Did I Get Married, Too?, will be released on March 30 … with still no word about her new album:

Janet Jackson’s brand new single is going to be unleashed next week on March 30. Titled “Nothing”, the song is recorded by the singer for the soundtrack of upcoming movie “Why Did I Get Married Too?”. Confirming the song’s release date is producer Jermaine Dupri in a short message on his Twitter. “OH AND ON THE 30th IS WHEN I RELEASE THE NEW JANET RECORD (NOTHING) FROM THE WDIGM 2 SOUNDTRACK JUS ALIL INFO FOR THE JANET FANS,” he wrote.

So … now we get to look forward to Nothing from Ms. Janet. HMMM. Additionally, Janet Jackson was a last-minute guest addition to The Tonight Show with Jay Leno:

After the jump, check out her interview wherein she talk about her new movie, her new book, her thoughts on acting vs. singing and much, much more …

In January we learned that NBC decided to cancel The Jay Leno Show, which aired in the 10PM time slot, and move him back to hosting The Tonight Show, which airs in the 11:35PM time slot … which meant that former Tonight Show host Conan O’Brien got the axe. As you may recall, Conan signed off on his last episode as host of The Tonight Show in late January and then went into hiding (well, actually he went to Hawaii to swim with the dolphins). The Tonight Show went on temporary hiatus during the 2010 Vancouver Olympic Winter Games and finally returned to the air last night … with Jay Leno as host. Here are a few screencaps from last night’s Wizard of Oz-themed cold open and Jay‘s return monologue:

A lot of things in the world have changed since May. But not Jay Leno hosting ‘The Tonight Show.’ Oh, sure, there was that awkward nine-month lapse between his farewell then and his return on Monday, a stretch when Leno left, flopped in prime time, then accepted the assignment from NBC to push out his flagging ‘Tonight Show’ successor, Conan O’Brien. NBC and Leno’s fans can relax: Judging from his first night back, it’s the same old Jay with pretty much his same old ‘Tonight Show.’ He started the show by spoofing the conclusion of ‘The Wizard of Oz,’ where Dorothy awakens to find all those crazy goings-on were only a dream. Jay, seen in sepia tones in what was meant to be a Kansas farmhouse, said: ‘I went away to the strangest place. It was wonderful, but some of it wasn’t so nice.’ In fact, Leno had gone away from the nation’s TV screens for less than a month when he returned Monday night to his old haunts in late night. ‘It’s good to be home,’ he told his audience as he began his first ‘Tonight Show’ monologue since last spring. ‘I’m Jay Leno, your host. At least, for a while.’ Leno was reclaiming his old job at NBC’s ‘Tonight Show’ just nine months after giving it up to Conan O’Brien, and only 19 days after NBC pulled the plug on Leno’s own prime-time misadventure. ‘We were off for the last couple of weeks,’ Leno cracked during his monologue. ‘Kind of like the Russians at the Olympics. What happened to them?’ Leno noted that one of his guests was an American gold medalist, skier Lindsey Vonn. ‘Did you see her?’ Leno marveled. ‘When it comes to going downhill, nobody is faster. OK, except NBC.’ As he zinged his own network, along with former Vice President Dick Cheney, Toyota and Tiger Woods, Leno signalled the resumption of the late-night war between him and his longtime CBS foe David Letterman, who had gained the ratings upper hand during O’Brien’s brief, unhappy stay as ‘Tonight Show’ host. Leno’s other welcome-back guests included Jamie Foxx and singer-songwriter Brad Paisley … NBC is praying that he will comfortably settle back behind it on the ‘Tonight Show,’ where he ruled late night (and beat Letterman) for much of 17 years.

And so … Jay Leno is back at the helm at The Tonight Show. Even now, the ire that people felt for him over the way Conan O’Brien was treated has dissipated a bit … in a few months time, it’ll be less so and a year from now it will be as if none of it happened in the first place. Like it or not, Jay Leno is back as Tonight Show host … and my guess is that he won’t be going anywhere, anytime soon. After the jump, if you are interested, you can watch the Wizard of Oz-like opening and Jay‘s full return monologue …

After yesterday’s ruling by the California Supreme Court to uphold the Prop 8 ban on same-sex marriage, folks began rallying all around the State in an effort to peaceably protest that ruling. Here in West Hollywood, CA last night, celebs gathered with protesters to voice their displeasure with the court’s ruling and to begin building support for a new ballot initiative that will likely make it to the polls next year (2010) to Repeal Prop 8. Here are a few pics of some of the celebs who took to the streets in protest last night and some info about what went down:

After months of legal wrangling, the California Supreme Court announced on Tuesday to uphold a ban on same-sex marriages. Justices voted 6-1 to uphold Proposition 8, the voter-approved ban of gay marriage, dealing a major legal blow to the gay and lesbian community. California residents passed Prop 8 with 52 percent of the vote last November. The court also ruled that the roughly 18,000 marriages that took place before Prop 8 took effect are still valid. “It would be a shocking, strange thing in California law to essentially divorce those couples against their will,” said Jennifer Pizer, a lawyer from Lambda Legal. The crowd that had gathered outside the Supreme Court in San Francisco was mostly made up of gay rights supporters, and there was a huge outcry when the ruling was released at 10 a.m. After the announcement, the crowd began marching through San Francisco streets chanting, “Shame on you.” Crowds converged in West Hollywood Tuesday at 7 p.m. to oppose the state Supreme Court’s ruling. They marched to the intersection of Hollywood Blvd. and Highland Ave., shutting down the intersection. That crowd was estimated to be approximately 5,000 strong. Five states have already legalized gay marriage, and gay marriage supporters had hoped California would be the sixth. The justices said the people do have the right to change their constitution through the ballot box. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger released a statement shortly after the ruling. “While I believe that one day, either the people or courts will recognize gay marriage, as governor of California, I will uphold the decision of the California Supreme Court,” he said. “Regarding the 18,000 marriages that took place prior to Proposition 8′s passage, the court made the right decision in keeping them intact.” The governor encouraged those responding to the decision to do so peacefully and lawfully … In Leimert Park, the ACLU and several faith-based groups held a news conference to respond to the state Supreme Court’s decision. “This is nothing short of apartheid in our own state, that some people were allowed to be married, and others will never have that right,” said Rabbi Denise Eger from Kol Ama Congregation. Local residents Eric Monriquez and Juan Ribera said the announcement was bittersweet for them. While they were happy their marriage would still be recognized by the state, they said they were very disappointed with the ruling. “We’re very sad for other couples,” Ribera said. Gay rights advocates had argued the ballot measure revised the state constitution’s equal protection clause, thus needing the legislature’s approval before it could be put to voters. Six months before Prop 8 passed, the California Supreme Court had ruled in favor of gay marriage, saying that denying gay marriage amounted to state-sanctioned discrimination. Gay rights supporters say the fight is far from over.

Very true, the fight is FAR from over … in fact, it has only just begun. The site RepealProp8.com was launched yesterday in the wake of the court’s ruling that seeks to put the issue back on the ballot for voters to decide again. Because California allows the amendment of the State constitution by a simple voter majority, the issue can go back on the ballot for voters to decide — again. The vote was so close last November that supporters, me included, believe that another vote would be sure to legalize same-sex marriage here in California. If YOU would like info on how you can help the cause, head over to RepealProp8.com. There is still a long road ahead but if we’ve learned nothing from the 5 States that have legalized same-sex marriage in this country, we’ve learned that true marriage equality for all will eventually come — even in places you’d least expect. Much props and love goes out to the celebs who came out to rally last night … including, Kathy Griffin & her mother Maggie, Deborah Gibson, Haylie Duff, Emmy Rossum, Lance Bass, Eliza Dushku and more. Eliza posted photos on her official Twitter page thruout the night. Props, too, to Governor Schwarzenegger for his support as well … here is a short vid clip of his comments to Jay Leno on The Tonight Show last night:

Last week we learned from a report from TMZ that Mel Gibson‘s mistress, Oksana Grigorieva (whom he recently started up a romantic relationship with while he was still married to his wife of 29 years Robyn) is pregs with his child … which resulted in Robyn filing for divorce. Mel appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno last night and confirmed to Jay that his girlfriend is pregs with his child, joking that he can now be called “Octo-Mel” since his mistress will be giving birth to his 8th child — classy, classy guy:

It’s official: Mel Gibson’s girlfriend, Oksana Grigorieva, is pregnant. The actor confirmed the news during a taping of NBC’s The Tonight Show With Jay Leno to air [last night]. “I guess I’m ‘Octo-Mel,’” says Gibson, who already has seven kids with his wife of 28 years, Robyn. Robyn filed for divorce six weeks ago amidst speculation that Grigorieva, a singer on Gibson’s record label, was expecting a child. “My wife and I, our marriage ended three years ago and we’ve been separated ever since then,” Gibson tells Leno. “These things happen. It’s unfortunate, it’s sad, but you know she is an admirable woman — we still got kids together, we’re friends.” “Look,” Gibson continues. “When it’s all said and done, I did a pretty good hatchet job on my marriage myself. I’m to blame. If you’re inclined to judge, put it here.” Gibson also says his separation from Robyn had nothing to do with Grigorieva, whom he didn’t meet until 2008. When asked by Leno if they would wed, Gibson says: “Why would you get married twice?” According to reports, Grigorieva is in her second trimester and due this fall.

As a result of Mel‘s confirmation on national television last night, his official rep issued a statement that was released in between the show’s taping (yesterday afternoon) and the show’s airing (late last night):

Six weeks after his wife Robyn filed for divorce after 28 years of marriage, Mel Gibson has some news of his own: his Russian musician girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva, 39, is pregnant, the actor’s rep confirms exclusively to PEOPLE. “He couldn’t be happier,” says a Gibson friend. “He loves being a father.” Grigorieva, who is signed to Gibson’s record label, Icon Records, is in her second trimester and due in the late fall. For those eager to point to Grigorieva’s pregnancy as a catalyst for Gibson’s divorce, they’ll be wrong, says the close source: “This has nothing to do with the divorce. Mel didn’t even know Oksana was pregnant when they filed.”

Ha! Right! There really ain’t much damage control that can be done at this point so I guess saying that Mel didn’t even know his mistress was pregnant when his wife filed for divorce is all they could come up with. You know, even if you buy that “we’ve been separated for 3 years” line he’s trying to feed us, it’s pretty disrespectful to sleep around ON YOUR WIFE and the mother of your 7 children while you’re still married to her. WWJD? The hypocrisy of Gibson‘s religiousness just grosses me out to no end. His pious bullshizz turned me off to him years ago, this just seals the deal and shows the man’s true colors, IMHO. I wish Ms. Grigorieva all the luck in the world … I hope that Mel Gibson doesn’t eff her and her baby over in the same way he effed over his wife.

Yesterday afternoon was my last visit to The Tonight Show with Jay Leno in Burbank, CA for the third of Prince‘s three appearances on the show. As you may recall, I was able to give away 2 sets of 2 tickets for some Pink readers to attend the taping as well and it was my extreme pleasure to meet them all. Here is what the ticket looked like for yesterday’s Prince performance on the outdoor stage of The Tonight Show:

I opted out of going inside for the taping so that I could get a prime spot in front of the stage for the performance. Prince did not disappoint … her performed the song Feel Better, Feel Good, Feel Wonderful from his new album LOTUSFLOW3R on the show and then performed 2 more songs after the cameras finished rolling. We also got to see him perform Crimson & Clover and Play That Funky Music. For Funky Music, he brought a male fan on stage to sing the vocal … and then hand him his guitar to strum on stage. Truly, that Prince fan got the thrill of a lifetime.

After the performance, I was able to meet up with Pink reader Melissa and her friend Lindsay as well as Mark and his wife Kelly:

Mark and Melissa were the lucky readers whose emails I picked at random to win the tickets. They were both so nice as were their guests … I really enjoyed meeting them all and I was thrilled that they were able to attend yesterday’s taping.

After all of that fun was over, I had to jet home to change so that I could meet up with my friend Mike for our Friendaversary date. Mike and I are celebrating our 2 year anniversary as friends this month so last night we did dinner and a movie. We decided to see I Love You, Man in order to honor our own bromance:

I Love You, Man is a great film. It’s funny and sweet and really funny … and really sweet. I loved the whole thing. There is a gay undercurrent in the film (in addition to the fact that Andy Samberg‘s character is gay) that was treated respectfully I think. It’s films like this that prove that you can have fun with sexuality and not be offensive to anyone. I wholly endorse this film … Paul Rudd and Jason Segal are so great together. I’m bummed that David didn’t get to see it … I might have to take him to see it later on :)

Tonight is gonna be a big night. I’m seeing Prince perform at the Nokia Theater at 7pm and then at the Conga Room at 9:30pm and then at Club Nokia at midnight. My friend Johnny is joining me for the first show, I’ll be hangin’ with my friend Daniel for the second show and David will be attending the midnight show. I am so excited … so much Prince all at once … I can’t wait. I’ll do my best to have all the deets for y’all tomorrow … here’s hoping I don’t die in the process. I’ve never attended 3 concerts in one night before … hopefully I can hang. We’ll see …

OMG … so yesterday … was seriously, one of the coolest days ever. My friend Daniel, who works for TMZ, and I made our way out to Burbank for the second taping of The Tonight Show with Jay Leno for the express purpose of watching Prince perform his second of three performances on the show (as you may recall, we got to see him perform the day before, too). We were very fortunate to get prime seating at the show, right in front of the performance stage. Prince performed the song Dreamer from his new album LOTUSFLOW3R and pretty much rocked the house …

… and then the unbelievable happened. At the end of his performance, Prince took off his guitar walked right over to Daniel and me and handed us his guitar! We were shocked, Daniel just froze, then we screamed and the crowd went wild:

I’m telling you, the fact that it happened at all was incredible … that it happened on national television is just insane. Daniel posted about the experience HERE on TMZ and news outlets all over the place have been rerunning the footage. Everyone wants to know if we got to keep the guitar … no we did not, it was just an incredible honor to be able to hold and touch the instrument. I was able to strum some of the strings … it was just insane!! Truly, one of the coolest concert moments of my life. After the jump, check out video of Prince performing Dreamer on The Tonight Show and make sure you watch to the very end …
