The first batch of guests for Jay Leno‘s re-premiere of The Tonight Show is out – and it’s shaping up to be a star-studded first couple of weeks.

But the biggest surprise may be Sarah Palin, who appears next Tuesday.

Leno is back with all new Tonight Shows starting one week from today, and the guest list is a mix of Olympics stars, celebrities, and yes, a very well-known former VP candidate.

Jamie Foxx and Lindsey Vonn are on night #1, while Palin is a guest Tuesday night. This isn’t Palin’s first Tonight Show appearance – she made a cameo on the Conan O’Brien version (with William Shatner) in a hilarious bit in December. One show she probably won’t be showing up on – the new (old) head-to-head Leno competitor, Late Show with David Letterman.

Joining Palin Tuesday will be Shaun White. Other notable guests include Simon Cowell, Morgan Freeman and Matthew McConaughey.

Here’s the full release:

Monday, March 1 – Guests include Jamie Foxx, Olympic Gold Medal Skier Lindsey Vonn and a musical performance by Brad Paisley

Tuesday, March 2 – Guests include Sarah Palin, Olympic Gold Medal Snowboarder Shaun White

Wednesday, March 3 – “Jaywalk All-Stars” with the Cast of “Jersey Shore,” Chelsea Handler, the most decorated American Winter Olympian of all time Speed Skater Apolo Anton Ohno and a musical performance by Avril Lavigne

Thursday, March 4 – Guests include Matthew McConaughey and Jason Reitman

Friday, March 5 – Guests include Morgan Freeman and Meredith Vieira

Monday, March 8 – Guests include Simon Cowell

Tuesday, March 9 – Guests include Christoph Waltz, Animal Expert Dave Salmoni and a musical performance by Joan Jett and The Blackhearts

Wednesday, March 10 – Guests include Kristen Stewart and Guy Fieri

Thursday, March 11 – Guests include Dana Carvey and Kim Kardashian, with a musical performance by Colbie Caillat

Friday, March 12 – Guests include Dakota Fanning and Judd Apatow

I still wont watch Jay anymore, damaged goods!
The Real Royal King

O, dear! What will she be whining about after this show?
writer

If she ever whines about anything as much as you whine about her, Royal, then we’re talking some real whining.
The Real Royal King

I’m sorry I love America and Americans, Writer, much as I am sorry the Drop Out Governor loves herself, and only herself.
writer

You just don’t love the (White) Americans quite as much.
writer

And if she’s as unimportant and insignificant as the left says, and has no hope of ever holding office again, isn’t it odd to be so worried about her? I do enjoy that she keeps the far left seething with even more anger than they usually have, though.

Royal…please. You don’t fucking love Americans! You and the Bill Mahers of the world hate America and hate Americans. Because to sophisticates like you and Mr. Maher, we’re just a bunch of ignorant, provincial, parochial, racist, dumb-ass flag-waving rednecks who don’t know what’s good for us, AND we’re gritz-eating motherfucking Klansmen to boot!

But that’s OK, my fellow “American”. Because come this November, dumb Americans like me are going to kick your pseudo-intellectual ass!
writer

And Royal is indeed an intellectual. Janeane Garofolo told him so.
The Real Royal King

Probably not if you think it will take 77 seats to win control.

By the way, it’s “grits”. I have them with breakfast on Sunday morning. Rather ghastly, but it’s a tradition, like fruitcake at Christmas.
writer

‘I hate Palin. I hate Palin. I hate Palin.” Like listening to the ocean, only painful.
Azarkhan

But you’re OK with the “motherfucking Klansmen”? Good!

PS: I like grits!

I’m sorry I love America and Americans…

And you show that love, by hating people who don’t agree with you, name calling, and making up facts to support your own theories, and ignoring reality.

Man… you’ve really got to start finishing your sentences.

Leno will be an easy friendly room for $arah “ALSO TOO”. $arah will feel no “uncomfortableness” there.

Could it be because the left needs a diversion, to take the focus off the failure they voted into the presidency?

On a side note, ImNotBlue, how do you format your posts with the italics option?

Dang! I hope he doesn’t ask $arah what she reads!!!!

Nothing like starting the Season off from deep in Appalachia. Yup!

This will be a hard one to figure out ratings wise since Shaun White will also be on the program.

As far as the interview, it’s going to be a softball one. I’ll pass.
