Last night, the first of the new TV season, there was late-night war between NBC’s The Tonight Show and ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live. The Kimmel show closed down Hollywood Boulevard for a free Paul McCartney mini-concert; the former Beatle sang two songs in the studio and 13 more for the crowd of 10,000 outside on the street. The guest on Leno’s Tonight was Justin Timberlake, who talked about Obama but didn’t perform because he didn’t feel well. But he should feel well enough tonight when it’s his turn to close down the Walk of Fam for a mini concert of his own. But somewhat surprisingly, both Jay Leno and David Letterman, who had former president Bill Clinton as his guest, beat out Kimmel and the Beatle in the ratings. F*ck the numbers, let’s dance! Here’s Paul performing “Lady Madonna” for the packed crowd in the street
