Rove's Second Appearance on Leno - Video and Review

July 26th 2007 00:49

Rove McManus once again appeared on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Although his last performance set the bar high, this time around he managed to meet, and maybe even exceed, it.
The tiny talk show host held an easy rapport with his heavyweight counterpart, and the familiarity between them ensured a slightly more relaxed atmosphere this time around. All in all, Rove once again held his own, and came across as funny, confident and very genuine.

Below is the video of Rove as a guest on The Tonight Show.

Nina,

Are you serious?

Fair enough with the 'held his own' bit, but the rest?

Please tell me you're not serious about Rove being funny or genuine.

Rove did a really good job. I think you're right, he was even better this time round. I must say, the first time I heard he was going to be on Leno, I was a bit unsure about how he'd go (thought he'd be a bit embarassing). But I'm pleased to say I thought he was really good

David, I'm afraid I am serious. I have had reservations about Rove in the past, but I really did think he came across very well, both this time and the last.
I think that Rove has potential, and is quite likeable provided he keeps his ego in check. However, if he ever tries to emulate Bert Newton again, I may have to rethink my stance.

Kylie, I know what you mean - when I first heard Rove was going to be on Leno, I was sure that it would be cringe-worthy. I was pleasantly surprised, and this second appearance shows that the first was not a fluke.

WOW!! I'm impressed.

He's a funnier guest than he is a host. I am really impressed...he definitely held his own with Leno.

...and it looks like he's priming to enter US TV...he's got the celebrities laughing amongst themselves and the plebs will never know laugh down pat!

Maybe I'm just feeling benevolent because his wife passed away and I know how much he loves her but...

Are we sure this is Rove? It's not someone who looks like him or a....Rove-bot??

Hope you're well Ninabelle.

big hug

Dusk, there definitely seems to have been a change in Rove, particularly since the passing of his wife. I'd be a tad worried if anyone spent the time making a Rove-bot...

Big hug to you too.

I went off little Rove for a while too, but he does go OK in this interview!

Chic Critique, it seems that many Australians are tired of his antics, but he does play well to the American crowd.
