J Lo to the rescue!

Late-night television found a new savior in Jennifer Lopez, who showed up Monday on TBS' Lopez Tonight as a  "guest host" for George Lopez.

In a nod to the ongoing saga at NBC between Jay Leno and Conan O'Brien, Jennifer Lopez, 40, said in her monologue,

"Welcome to Lopez Tonight, where nobody gets fired, they just get replaced by a bigger star with the same last name..."

The singer, actress and mom didn't pull any punches when discussing NBC's embattled late-night comics. She jokes that a Manhattan bartender has created a specialty cocktail in honor of O'Brien, who has voiced his displeasure with his network:

"It's called The Go-Back-To-Manhattan...it's a Manhattan with sour grapes and a knife in it."

The diva then wondered whether Leno was too old to attract hip, young viewers. "NBC is thinking about changing the NBC peacock to a cougar, since they are trying to attract young people to an old host," she joked.

"Some women don't like the expression 'COUGAR' but it's better than what guys get, right? An older guy who dates a younger girl that's called a 'LETTERMAN'." (Letterman famously admitted to an extramarital affair with a younger staff member in October.)

Applauding her "takeover," George Lopez quips, ""Wasn't she amazing? Orale, Jennifer Lopez!" ("Orale" is a Mexican/Chicano expression meaning "hell yeah" or "right on"). "I guess that's what it feels like to be Conan."

Leno, meanwhile, made nice on his Monday night monologue. "Don't blame Conan," for the mess, he told his audience. "Nice guy, good family guy, great guy. He and I have talked and not a problem since then... This is all business... it didn't work so we might have an answer for you tomorrow. So, we'll see. That's basically where it is."

  • January 24, 2010 - 8:01pm sick of uneducated liberals whom people listen to because they're famous

    Scott Baio posts an unflattering picture of the Anti-Christ's wife and he's getting death threats. Why is this trashy Puerto Rican girl getting away with saying such nasty things? No one cares about her. Her music stinks, her acting is terrible and she's not all that attractive. I wish she and her disgusting husband would go live in another country. Hopefully, George Lopez learned a lesson. I would assume she won't be invited back any time soon. Not that I'd ever watch his show anhyway, I'm no exactly his "demographic".

    Who listens to a person like her anyway. She should spend time wisely. Like reducing that gigantic butt and purchasing lifts for her sawed off husband to put in his shoes:) Just kidding cougar lady lol

    All of these comments dogging JLO are hilarious. Her performance was not meant to give HER opinions or personality, she was mocking George Lopez and how he does his monologue, including topics he would discuss. Basically, she was acting and I guess proving those who say "she can't act" wrong, because she obviously was so good, she's receiving hate comments as if she was on a podium, speaking her thoughts.. Again, thanks for the laugh everyone.. LOL..

    Wait...George Lopez has a late night show?

  • January 21, 2010 - 7:57pm gg

    Lopez - George or Jennifer really shouldn't be taking potshots at way more successful hosts. It just looks stupid.

    I will never watch another Jennifer Lopez movie or buy a cd. My 83 year old grandmother who happens to be a democrat wanted me to say that she has lost her as fan as well. We are hispanic and mortified by what Ms. Lopez did on national tv. Keep your nasty comments to yourself. These hollywood elite who made their money off us working people paying to see them, sure have exploded with ego. Too bad!

    Give me a break — Conan is a sniveling little spoiled brat who should really just shut up. There are hundreds of thousands of regular people who have lost jobs that cannot keep up with their obligations – food, mortgage, kids clothes, etc. They have real concerns, not a $45 million severance package. If Conan the Assman wants to get a little credibility he should donate some of that pot of gold to real programs that help real people, not whine and moan like some spoiled brat Hollywood tart. Suck it up big boy – you aren’t exactly starving.

    Hey Christian: Not all Latinos stand in line waiting for a handout. My father always taught me that you're not a man until you can provide for your family. A lot of Latinos do that, you're an ignorant idiot.

    Hey Jlo is Hot: I guess if we are German, we are supposed to support Hitler? You are a moron. If you're broke then get your lazy ass to work like a lot of Latinos have done all their lives.

    Jennifer, we love you. Stay out of politics. You are not qualified to talk about Sarah, Connan, Jay or any other politician. You have lost me as a fan and I know many others feel the same behind your idiotic comments, especially towards Gov. Palin. Go get a cup of tea and powder your nose.

    I think it's interesting how recently an article on J-Lo says that she refuses IVF because of her "faith" yet disgraces her "faith" and her culture with such a cheap shot and a potty-mouth to boot! So, in her "faith" is it permissible to spout such venom with the same mouth she uses to pray? How hypocritical. Has anyone ever heard Ms. Palin refer to J-Lo with such a disgusting, sexually violent and slanderous word? No, I think not. Politics aside, chica; you can disagree with Ms. Palin all you want but, you just embarrassed yourself and turned off most intelligent, respectable and classy Latinas. Shame on you, J-Lo. Your words betray you.

  • January 21, 2010 - 1:18am Jlo is Hot

    OH AND FOR THE PEOPLE WHO ARE HISPANIC AND ARE SAYING SHE IS A DISGRACE. LOOK IN THE MIRROR, YOU NEED TO STICK UP FOR YOUR LATINO PEOPLE. DON'T FORGET PALIN IS A DRAMATIC CABRONA WHO IS NOT FOR YOUR BROKE AS$ES!!

  • January 21, 2010 - 1:15am Jlo is Hot

    JLO is back YAY!!! F all the haters!! Whateverrrrr!!! Nobody likes Palin, who expects to run for presidency and yet couldn't handle being a governer!!???? lmfao!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Better to be a b-i-tch than a w-h-ore. My wife, J-HO, has slept with more men than I have slept with women. I'm still trying to get her ex, to release one of the sex tapes J-HO has made with him.
