NBC Brings In The Big Guns: Rihanna, Kanye West And Jay-Z To Kick Off The Jay Leno Show

Jay Leno's new show is getting a serious dose of starpower, as NBC has confirmed that the September 14 debut of "The Jay Leno Show" will feature a performance by Jay-Z, Rihanna and Kanye West. The three singers will perform together on "Run This Town," a tune from Jay-Z's new album.

The network added that there will be fewer musical acts on the show and guests on Leno's new show will participate in activities like driving race cars on a track being built near the NBC studio in Burbank.

Think all this will be enough to bring in some killer ratings for Leno? Or should he just call it a day?

Will you watch? Personally, we're Letterman fans...

Can't wait for Leno to return. I've missed him. He always got the best musical acts and he continues to do so with Jay-Z, Rihanna and Kanye.

Leno is still king.
These rappers are still purveyors of filth and violence and contributing to poverty by glorifying out of wedlock sex especially among the poor and ignorant.
