Remember, she's the daughter of a Chinese billionaire who married a woman in France last year.

I was reading today, he's decided to give up, as his daughter told him, 'fine, I'll marry a man when you do.' That also puts it more succinctly than anything I could have come up with.

Wanda Sykes is in a class by herself ... kind of like Jerry Seinfeld. It's not surprising that Jay Leno had her on in the waning days of his program when he is having on his favorites.
