Celebrity Feuds
George Lopez: The Chin is A Chump

Ready for the next celeb slugfest? Call it The Chin vs. El Chingon.

The Latino funnyman lashed out at Jay Leno this morning on an Orlando, FL radio show, calling him "the worst interviewer" on TV and "the biggest two-faced dude" in the industry. On the Scott and Erica Morning Show on WOMX, Lopez accused Leno of playing nice by calling him after Lopez's kidney transplant in April 2005, and then putting "the knife in [his] back" through Leno's producers. Lopez didn't specify what that knife was about, but clearly there's some bad blood a brewin' between the two comics.

Reps for Leno and Lopez did not immediately return calls for comment.

18. Lopez is the latino's Al Sharpton. Anytime now he will be calling Leno a racist.

19. Hey, maybe this will get Leno some ratings...his show has been
on a downward spiral for a long time. If G-Low really said this
than there must be something to this...two faced back stabbers
are too common in Hollywood.

20. I think that Scott guy doing the interview sounds dreamy...sort of a 21st century Arthur Godfrey.

21. Leno is a Larry King like interviewerer--not really interested in the answers, doesnt make a conversation from the answer, and has to read cards to be reminded what to ask next. he has too many weekend corporate gigs in vegas to really be considered serious about his craft anymore. NBC made a mistake having this jerk be the heir to Carson. Conan cant get there quick enough. Glad George called his ass out.

Hey Jay, take over for Larry when he croaks, you'll make an easy transition. Softball questions and dont listen to the answers of the guest.

22. I don't know. George Lopez is funny sometimes, but it is annoying when minority comics rip on white people for too long. Great point though about how Kramer and Mel get busted, but when other people who aren't White start running their mouths they're looked at as great racial thinkers and geniuses... LOL... I can't believe sh*t like that sometimes!

And Jay Leno is kind of annoying, but at least he's not a politicly biased old dick like Letterman.

23. Jay needs to quit googling his female guests titties every time they are sitting next to him. Jay ,you big chin doofus, we can see you doing it!

24. Leno is not a funny host. He is too gay-obssessed, imo. When he has a guest I want to see, I tune in. Won't miss him when he's gone; or how can I miss Leno, when he won't leave!

25. Back to the barrio, you no-talent.

26. Anyone know what's the reference to "knife in the back" is all about?

As for Leno, I agree with Lopez that he's the worst interviewer on TV. Leno is a pure standup comic, that's why the monologue is good (thank the writers too) and the rest of the show sucks.

As for Leno's character, hard to say. Stern definitely hates him and saids the same thing (i.e. 2 faced), but I can't trust Stern because he was all bitter about John Menendez leaving to go to The Tonight Show. Stern was such a whiner at the time because Jay didn't call "The King Of All Media" beforehand to ask permission to hire his flunkie.

28. George is not a racist and everyone knows it! He is a comedian and like all other comedians he makes jokes about people regardless of race. I have seen George 2 times, bought 3 CDs, and watch his show on ABC. The man makes fun of everybody, even his own family and race. He is just too funny. Maybe you guys need to "put some Vicks on" to let the healing begin.

Leno is also funny and he makes fun of everyone too. I agree the he is a better standup comic then an interviewer. If you are doing the "Tonight Show" you should be better prepared and not have to read off of cards to ask questions. However I do like Jay.

29. George Lopez is a "manufactured" Latino created by the network to attract Hispanic viewers. Ohterwise, he is just another no-talent, wannabe!

30. Many valid comments. I must say, I do watch Leno, almost nightly, but lately I have realized that almost EVERY NIGHT, he has to make a negative comment about the Clintons. He must be a TOTAL REPUBLICAN LOVER, as he is also buddies with Azzhole Schwartan*****.

Let's see, Clinton had our BUDGET BALANCED, WITH A SURPLUS OF MONEY, Bush -- we are at war, our own soldiers are dying daily, and BILLIONS IN DEBT. WITHOUT DECIDING WHICH PARTY YOU WANT TO BE IN -- WHICH DO YOU PREFER?

What has Bush done wrong, compared to Clinton. So, Clinton had sex in the oval office, told a fib about it because he was embarrassed and humiliated. But what a great president, as far as accomplishments. AND WE HAD MONEY IN THE BANK!!! Bush is successful at killing young men and women daily in his fake war for oil - NOT WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION! And, the economy sucks...

Meanwhile, Leno puts Clinton down, EVERY DAY! Always a lying or sex joke. Isn't it enough already? Why do this for the LAST 6 YEARS? And now, attacking Hillary also.

The comment about Leno checking out every woman's breasts that are on his show, that is totally true...

I don't know what the beef is between him and Lopez, but it seems he is MASTER OF THE PUT-DOWN, and gets away with it daily. That seems to be because most people like to laugh at others problems, so they don't have to focus on themselves.

So, there isn't much on TV at that time, except for good old TV LAND. That has been the recent choice for me, so I don't have to hear ... blah, blah, blah Clinton had sex, blah blah.... or about mean, old Hillary.

LENO HAS TURNED INTO A BOOB! Maybe because he stares at them so much! AND WHAT A BRAGGAR! Always talking about his many expensive cars. He does not have much to spend his money on, except his wife and cat, so he has a 50 car garage of expensive things. Do you ever hear about him doing any charity events? He auctions off a motorcycle for hurricane victims, gets it signed by all his guests, but the bike is donated by Harley Davidson, and not a Leno penny involved.

Lopez, I don't know. Don't watch his show, but I used to hear him on L.A. Radio and not so bad.

Good Luck all, sorry for the ramble, been mad at Jay myself for a long time.
