Are Jay Leno and David Letterman friends?
There has been an idea of Jay Leno and David Letterman hating each other as long as the media is a concern but according to Leno, there is nothing like hatred between them.
According to him, the two have been friends who sort of took from each other a little bit in terms of work.
He revealed that David could put things together, but he’s kind of a hesitant performer.
He was a very loud, boisterous performer, but wasn’t that good a writer.
So he would watch him and go “Oh man, how do you put those sentences together?’ And he’d watch me and go, ‘How can you be so confident on stage?’ Leno told Cohen in an interview.
