The rumors of Jimmy Fallon taking over Jay Leno's perch a top the TONIGHT SHOW empire never seem to end. And apparently neither do the parodies. In the latest, courtesy of LATE NIGHT, Jay Leno and Jimmy Fallon sing their version of the classic duet "Tonight" from the Broadway musical "West Side Story" and ponder 'Who Will Host 'Tonight'?'

Recently, reports have been circulating that the peacock network will be making an official announcement in May that the 2013-14 television season will be the last for Leno. According to the report, Jimmy Fallon will take over as host of THE TONIGHT SHOW in the 11:35 p.m. slot beginning with "a soft launch during the summer of 2014 before a formal fall kickoff."

"The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" features a nightly monologue (the longest in late-night), news-making guests, and ongoing comedy segments, including "Headlines," "Jaywalking" and "Battle of Jaywalking All-Stars." The result is a unique and humorous look at the daily happenings in the news and in pop culture.
