The gay banter was thick last night, virtually excluding the usual pap when Ryan Seacrest visited Jay Leno, most of it coming from Leno’s relentless barrage of sophomoric “all in good fun” attacks on Seacrest’s sexuality, and only touching perfunctorily on his rumored heterosexual relationship with Teri Hatcher. Frankly, Seacrest seems a little weary of it all by now, though he soldiers it well. When he got a moment to talk, he did some dishing himself – on Simon – and this struck us as insightful: Seems Cowell wants to get the artist who sculpted the monument to Britney Spears giving birth to make a similar one of him that he can put in his courtyard at home. Monumental ego.
