Jay’s comment to Bristol is at about :20 in. This is the second part of her interview

Bristol Palin was a guest on The Tonight Show on Friday. She did a decent job and kind of rolled with it, but I still found her very bland. She’s 19 years old and doesn’t have a lot to say, nor does she seem comfortable with the media. That’s fine and a lot of people are like that, but the vast majority of them don’t pursue fame, either. Bristol told Jay that she learned that she was invited to be on Dancing With The Stars through a text message she received while working at her day job as an office manager at a dermatologists. The way she explained it was simple – she decided to follow up on it and here she is. There was no mention of whether it was hypocritical of her to be on the show when she previously blasted Levi for being “obsessed with the limelight.” The thing that stuck out for me in this interview, and you can read it below and watch above, is Jay’s really stupid inappropriate comment to Bristol about getting pregnant. It was uncalled for and didn’t make sense, as if he was waiting to make a bad pregnancy joke and then tried to shoehorn it in there.

On choosing to do DWTS
Some people are like ‘do you really want to be in the spotlight?’ but I’m having fun with it

On her breakup with Levi
I’m not disappointed, not heartbroken. I tried to make it work for my son. It didn’t work. I realized that we’re not meant to be. I’m just focused on being a good mom.

On how Levi has changed
The guy I fell in love with was a hardworking Alaskan man that didn’t want to wear straight-legged jeans and boots and um be chased by Radar and those kind of people. So, it’s a night and day difference and it’s sad to watch, but oh well.

On Levi’s run for mayor of Wasila
He needs to move to Wasila, to the city limits, and he’s got to get his GED.

On how Dancing with The Stars is hard work
Well, I expected it to be hard work, but I’m so uncoordinated, don’t have any rhythm so we’re starting from scratch.

Leno’s inappropriate comment that followed this statement
I think it was a wise choice to go on the show. I was going to say, that’s also how you get pregnant, but I’m not going to go there. I’m teasing, I’m teasing.

On whether she’s a diva
No. The only thing I’ve asked for is a velcro mic pack so I don’t have to wear it on my belt loop.

What the hell is Jay talking about “that’s also how you get pregnant“? What does that mean in response to a 19 year-old girl saying that she can’t dance? It’s so wildly off the mark that it just goes to show what this old dude is thinking about. The people in the audience groaned loudly at that one, and so they should have. Remember when Letterman made a dumb joke about Bristol getting knocked up at a Yankees game but was accidentally referring to Sarah’s youngest daughter, Willow? Sarah and her husband freaked out about that and said that Letterman was joking about statutory rape. Letterman then apologized and Sarah accepted, and the whole thing was blown out of proportion, in my opinion. Anyway is Palin going to call Leno on this? It was a dumb joke and one that she’ll probably let go. I bet she’s seething over it, though.

Jay’s show is not doing as well as hoped, but he’s still hanging in there for some reason. It’s not because he’s particularly funny or has strong interview skills that’s for sure.
