LENO CONCEDES: NBC TRY TO SHORTEN HIS TENURE ON TONIGHT-YEARS AGO.
-They wanted to give the job to Conan O'Brien,as early as thirty-six months ago.
From UPI-
U.S. comedian Jay Leno says NBC executives originally planned for him to serve as host of The Tonight Show for a shorter time.
Leno, who will premiere his new prime time TV series on NBC next week,
said he was informed by NBC officials- five years ago- that they wanted to
replace him with comedian Conan O'Brien within three years, The New York Times
reported Saturday.
"Actually, they wanted me out in three years," said Leno, who departed
the Tonight Show in May. "I had to argue to get the other two. Oh, yeah.
I said: 'Let's make it five. You want me out? I'll do five.'"
Leno's recollection of those past events has been questioned by Rick
Ludwin, NBC's executive in charge of late-night programs.
"That is definitely not my recollection," Ludwin said. "I don't
remember three years being mentioned."
Now both sides are betting on the success of The Jay Leno Show with
NBC heavily promoting the new prime time series due to premiere Tonight.
"It's just so embarrassing," Leno told the Times of his response to
the wealth of "Leno" promotions. "It's a genetic fault that makes you go into
show business. It's not a plus."

HALLE BERRY IS PREGNANT AGAIN.
-Jingo "Jinx" Johnson to have second "miracle" baby.
An insider of Berry's and the baby's
father, lucky bastard model Gabriel Aubry, stated that "[She] is overjoyed. The first time, she struggled so much to get pregnant and eventually conceived through in vitro fertilization. This time, the baby was conceived through artificial insemination."
Berry endured horrible disappointment, "of 30 negative pregnancy tests before finally learning she was expecting her
first child, Nahla, in 2007." Life & Style "exclusively revealed"
that the 43 yr. old Boomerang actress, "is three months pregnant
with her second child."
"She's just ecstatic to be pregnant again," that insider continued. "She wasn't sure if she'd have another baby, so she's very
happy!"

DAKOTA FANNING MISSED TIN MAN, SO- SHE PLANS HER OWN DARKER VERSION OF THE THE WIZ.
From tinyurl.com
-Dakota Fanning could don ruby covered combat boots, instead of slippers for this "sequel": the WB studio is claims this will be "more action-packed"(a la Ripley from Aliens) than that '39 musical.
The Wizard of Oz starred Judy Garland as Dorothy, a Kansas farm-girl
who finds herself whisked to a technicolor world of munchkins and
witches. By contrast, the Warner Bros remake will play out in the
present day and chart the adventures of Dorothy's feistier
granddaughter.
"You've still got Dorothy trapped in an odd place," explains co-
producer Todd McFarlane. "But she's much closer to the Ripley
character from Alien, than a helpless singing girl."
Fanning, 15, came to fame with roles opposite Robert De Niro in Hide
and Seek and Tom Cruise in War of the Worlds, before going on to star
in Charlotte's Web and The Secret Life of Bees. She will next be seen
in New Moon, the sequel to last year's vampire romance Twilight.
Based on the 1900 children's book by L Frank Baum, The Wizard of Oz
stuttered on its initial release, before going on to be embraced by
generations of film-goers. The US Library of Congress claims that it
is now the most watched movie in cinema history.
Inevitably the film casts a shadow that other sequels have struggled
to escape. Liza Minelli – Garland's daughter – voiced a little-seen
cartoon version, Journey Back to Oz, in the 60s, while Walter Murch's
ambitious Return to Oz bombed at the box office in 1985. Warners will
no doubt be hoping that their all-new, action-packed version fares
differently.
