Howard loves trashing Jay – Jay would still take Howard as a guest
Ragging on Jay Leno is Howard’s new favorite pastime—clearly. “I can sit here and bash Jay Leno day and night,” Howard barked. Howard can trash Jay because Howard’s bigger than Jay. He doesn’t need to suck up to Jay like all the hacks in showbiz. But despite the shit Howard gives him, Jay would take Howard as a [...]

But he doesn’t deny it, [...]
