4:42Now PlayingJay Leno sits down with Adam Carolla for a tear jerker interview. You'll love Jay even more after hearing this story. At the height of his time hosting NBC's “The Tonight Show,” Jay Leno reportedly earned a $30 million salary. But in 2012, he took a 50% pay cut — bringing his salary down to about $15 million, to avoid laying off some of his crew and to pay his staff better. Jay also confirms the rumor that to this day he still hasn't spent a penny of his Tonight Show earnings!
