The multi-talented Billy Crystal was Jay Leno‘s first guest on The Tonight Show. It was 17 years ago and it seemed fitting that Crystal would be on hand during Jay’s last week on the show.
His comedic musical tribute to Leno was filled with some great material, covering his stable of cars to the tune of My Favorite Things. He sang, “Mustangs and Mazdas and shiny Mercedes, Model T Fords that he steals from old ladies…”
Leno reports that his favorite Tonight Show moment was with special guest Barack Obama – see video here.
The featured musical act on Thursday night was Prince.
