Following a gasoline fire, Jay Leno has sustained “severe burns,” but he is in stable
condition, the former “The Tonight Show” host told Variety. In a statement, Leno said: “A
gasoline fire caused some serious burns. I am ok. Only a week or two are necessary for me
to get up again.

Leno was sent to the hospital on Sunday after a fire broke out in his Los Angeles vehicle
garage, according to TMZ. Leno reportedly suffered burns to his face when one of the
automobiles caught fire. For treatment of his wounds, Leno was transferred to the
Grossman Burn Center.

People magazine was the first to report on Leno’s health. The comedian had to postpone his
presence at a finance conference in Las Vegas on Sunday owing to a “severe medical
situation.” At the time, Leno’s facial burns weren’t made public.

An email to participants stated that “His family was not able to give us many many
information, but there was a very significant medical situation that is keeping Jay from
going.” “All we know is he is alive, so tonight our prayers are with him and his family,”
someone said.

Leno has been vocal about having high cholesterol for a number of years. Many followers
assumed Leno was experiencing a health problem relating to his cholesterol after hearing
about a “severe medical situation.” Leno urged his followers to get routine cholesterol
checks in a video that was published in 2019.

Many of the people I see strolling about like that are ticking time bombs. You don’t realise
how much cholesterol you have until it truly affects you, you know? At the moment, Leno
stated. It’s similar to how a car’s engine would shut down if even a small amount of dirt got
into the jet’s needle. And your heart experiences it in that way.

Leno took over for Johnny Carson as host of “The Tonight Show” on NBC, which Carson
presided over from 1992 to 2009. Conan O’Brien took over as host of “The Tonight Show”
after Leno quit his position to launch his own NBC primetime talk show, “The Jay Leno
Show.” Poor ratings for both shows led NBC to make the infamous decision to rehire Jay
Leno as host of “The Tonight Show” in March 2010. Leno continued to host the late-night
programme for an additional four years before formally departing on February 6, 2014.
Jimmy Fallon has taken over from Jay Leno.

In addition to “The Tonight Show,” Leno debuted “Jay Leno’s Garage” on CNBC in 2015.
There have been 88 episodes and seven seasons of the show thus far. At the end of
October, “Jay Leno’s Garage” concluded its seventh season. Leno also took over as the new
host of the reboot of “You Bet Your Life” beginning in 2021.
