Late night king, Jay Leno is back on television with his new show, The Jay Leno Show.

Leno had some hit stars yesturday on his 1 hour premiere including Jerry Seinfeld, Jay-Z and Rihanna and the one disliked man for the moment, Kanye West.

Leno didn’t hold back any punches when West sat down. Jay asked him straight out “What would your mom have to say about this?” Anyone that had watched the MTV Video Music Award Sunday evening knows exactly what the question pertained to.

West had grabbed the microphone from the country music star Taylor Swift after she had won the best female pop video, “You Belong With Me” , and declared that Beyonce’s video “Single Ladies” should have been the one to win the award.

Kayne responded to Jays question with “ I need to take some time off and just analyze how I’m going to make it through the rest of this life, how I’m going to improve.Because I am a celebrity, and that’s something I have to deal with.” West went on to say “ I immediately knew it this situation that it was wrong and it wasn’t a spectacle, it was actually someones emotions that I stepped on.”

Some audience thought the conversation made the show uncomfortable.

There are mixed emotions with Leno back on the set at a different time frame than his 17 year late night run that didn’t have a lot of competition with other entertainment options.

Leno’s new show is on NBC Monday – Friday at 10 p.m.
