Now a junior in high school, Fanning chatted with Leno about finally being allowed to attend her first prom.  She said: “I didn’t think I was going to be able to go and then two days before I decided to go and I had to find a dress and get ready at the last minute, but it was really fun.  The theme was enchanted garden.”

Fanning also talked about the cast of “Twilight” going bowling in Vancouver.

JAY LENO’S MONOLOGUE - MONDAY, JUNE 21, 2010

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!  DID YOU ALL HAVE A NICE FATHER’S DAY?  FATHER’S DAY JUST KEEPS GETTING BIGGER AND BIGGER EVERY YEAR THANKS TO DNA TESTING.

TODAY IS ALSO JUNE 21ST.  TODAY IS THE FIRST DAY OF SUMMER AND ALSO THE LONGEST DAY OF THE YEAR. ESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE A CELTICS FAN, HAVING TO WATCH THE LAKERS PARADE TODAY.

EARLIER TODAY THE LAKERS HAD A BIG TICKER-TAPE PARADE. AND TOMORROW THE CLIPPERS WILL CLEAN IT UP.  SO IT SHOULD BE A LOT OF FUN.

“TOY STORY 3” WAS THE NUMBER ONE MOVIE THIS PAST WEEKEND.  IT MADE A $109 MILLION.  PRETTY EXCITING PLOT TOO.  IN THIS ONE THE TOYS TRY TO REUNITE WITH THE CHILDREN IN CHINA WHO MADE THEM.

AS IF THESE POOR PEOPLE IN THE GULF WEREN’T ANGRY ENOUGH.  DID YOU SEE WHAT THIS BS…IS IT BS OR BP?  BP.  …BP CEO TONY HAYWARD DID OVER THE WEEKEND?  HE FLEW BACK TO ENGLAND TO RACE ONE OF HIS YACHTS IN THE CRYSTAL CLEAR WATERS OFF THE COAST OF ENGLAND.  HIS YACHT IS NAMED "BOB" B-O-B.  WHICH STANDS FOR "BRITISH OIL BASTARD" I BELIEVE.

ISN’T THAT THE WORST THING YOU CAN DO?  TONY HAYWARD ON A YACHT.  WHERE ARE THOSE SOMALI PIRATES WHEN YOU NEED THEM?

PRESIDENT OBAMA, WHEN HE HEARD THIS, HE WAS FURIOUS.  PRESIDENT OBAMA GOT SO MAD HE ALMOST COULDN’T FINISH HIS ROUND OF GOLF.  THAT’S HOW BAD IT WAS.  UNBELIEVABLE.

HOW’S THIS FOR NERVE.  I THINK THEY ARE JUST TRYING TO ANNOY US.  AMERICAN AIRLINES IS INTRODUCING AN EXTRA FEE FOR PASSENGERS WHO WANT TO BOARD THE PLANE EARLY.  IF YOU WANT TO GET ON FIRST YOU HAVE TO PAY AN EXTRA FEE.  IF WE HAVE TO PAY TO BOARD EARLY, HOW ABOUT GIVING SOME MONEY BACK WHEN THE PLANE IS LATE.  HAS ANYBODY THOUGHT OF THAT?

CAMPBELLS HAS RECALLED OVER FIFTEEN MILLION POUNDS…ALMOST EIGHT TONS OF SPAGHETTIOS BECAUSE THEY CONTAIN BAD MEATBALLS.  THEY'RE NOW CALLED SPAGHETTI UH OHS

HOW DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHEN SPAGHETTIOS GO BAD?  “DO THESE TASTE FUNNY?”  “I DON’T KNOW.”

THE REASON THEY ARE RECALLING IS THAT A COOKER MALFUNCTIONED AT ONE OF THE BIG COMPANY PLANTS AND LEFT THE MEATBALLS UNDERCOOKED.  SO IF YOU BOUGHT SPAGHETTIOS YOU COULD GET SICK.  AND IF YOU ARE ITALIAN AND BOUGHT SPAGHETTIOS YOU COULD BE DISOWNED.

A 57 YEAR OLD LAWYER RUNNING FOR PROSECUTOR IN GIBSON COUNTY INDIANA HAS BEEN INDICTED ON CHARGES THAT HE HAD SEX WITH A FEMALE CLIENT TO PAY OFF HER $550 DEBT.  HERE’S THE WORSE PART—EVEN THOUGH THEY ONLY HAD SEX WITH THE WOMAN FOR TWO MINUTES, HE BILLED HER FOR THE WHOLE HOUR.

THIS CAME AS QUITE A SURPRISE TO PEOPLE.  SARAH PALIN HAS REVEALED SHE HAS TRIED MARIJUANA BUT SHE DID NOT LIKE IT. ITS AMAZING—200 MILLION AMERICANS HAVE SMOKED MARIJUANA AND THE ONLY ONE WHO DON’T LIKE IT SEEM TO BE ELECTED OFFICIALS.

I’LL BET THAT’S WHAT JOHN MCCAIN WAS SMOKING WHEN HE PICKED HER.
