Jay Leno has admitted that the former host of The Tonight Show, Conan O’Brien, and himself were both “screwed” during NBC’s late night reshuffle last year, but says that his frenemy will bounce back.
During an appearance on Joy Behar’s talk show, Leno reveals, “Conan got screwed. I got screwed. This is TV. The reason show business pays a lot of money is so when you get screwed you’ve got something left over.”
