David Beckham @ Leno

David Beckham looked quite sharp in his striped suit on The Tonight Show with David Letterman on Tuesday.

The 32-year-old soccer stud addressed his Armani Underwear Ad: “I was so nervous about doing that campaign because obviously I’ve done photoshoots before but I’ve never done photoshoots in my underwear. But to do that, I was quite nervous because obviously I knew my wife and friends were going to see it. And my mom was going to see it. When the photos first came out, she was the first one to call me and say, ‘What are you doing?’ I tried explaining it to her but she didn’t really get it.”

Halle is Berry Sorry About Anti-Semitic Remark

Halle Berry apologized last night after she made an anti-Semitic joke while taping The Tonight Show with Jay Leno Friday afternoon.

An audience member told Page Six, Halle was showing photos of herself when she said, “Here’s where I look like my Jewish cousin!” and showed a shot of herself with a huge nose.

Halle said, “I so didn’t mean to offend anybody - and after the show I realized it could be seen as offensive, so I asked Jay to take it out, and he did. What happened was I was backstage before the show and I have three girls who are Jewish who work for me. We were going through pictures to see which ones looked silly, and one of my Jewish friends said [of the picture], ‘That could be your Jewish cousin!’ And I guess it was fresh in my mind, and it just came out of my mouth. But I didn’t mean to offend anybody.”

Claire Danes Gets a ‘Golden Girls’ Surprise!

Claire Danes dropped by the The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and received a very special surprise.

Danes is apparently a huge Golden Girls and especially of Betty White. “I went as her for Halloween one year,” Danes pointed out.

Leno said, “So if you met Betty White what…”

Out walked Betty White, who presented Danes with a huge hug and the first 2 seasons of the Golden Girls on DVD. Danes went speechless!

Before Ms. White left, she gestured to Danes‘ legs and cracked, “I had a chance to have legs like that but I turned them down.” Danes, shocked, proceeded to repeatedly give the “I’m not worthy bow” à la Wayne’s World. Watch the video below!

Anderson Cooper: Gray Hair is Like Premature Ejaculation

Anderson Cooper commiserated with talk show host Jay Leno about getting gray hair at a young age. Cooper made a joke on Wednesday’s Tonight Show, analogizing getting gray hair to a common male sexual problem, premature ejaculation.

The well-respected CNN journalist joked, “I started [getting gray hair when I was] young. It’s like premature ejaculation. You know it can happen but when it happens to you, it’s kind of a shock.”

Fellow guest Heidi Klum proceeded to plugs her ears and playfully responded, “La la la, I don’t hear anything!”

Cooper also chatted briefly about the CNN-YouTube debate he recently moderated. He also shared a funny story about the ambient temperature at Presidential debates, specifically between John Kerry and George Bush.

He said, “The Kerry camp wanted the ambient temperature to be cool because John Kerry sweats and the Bush people wanted the ambient temperature to be very high because… John Kerry sweats.”

FYI: Anderson used the same joke as a regular contributor for Details Magazine in their August 2003 issue. He wrote, “Going gray is like ejaculation. You know it can happen prematurely, but when it actually does, it’s a total shock.”
