Jay Leno is recovering after the 60-foot fall he suffered in Pennsylvania earlier this week that left him with severe facial bruising and a broken wrist.
“I feel good,” she said on the red carpet at the AMFAR gala in Las Vegas on Friday night. “I have a broken wrist, but I’m fine.”
She covered her large bruises quite well with makeup to host the event that was held at the Wynn Resort and Casino and honored Sylvester Stallone and his wife Jennifer Flavin.
Leno slipped and fell while trying to take a shortcut to a restaurant near the Hampton Inn where he was staying before a show he was doing in Greenhouse, Pennsylvania, near Pittsburgh.
The former Tonight Show host was craving some chicken parmesan and was determined not to have to take the long route to get it.
‘To get (to the restaurant) I didn’t have a car, so I had to walk about a mile and a half. I said, ‘Well, the hill doesn’t look that steep. It’s about 60-70 feet. Let me see if I can get down the hill. “I fell,” he told Inside Edition earlier this week.

‘Boom, boom, boom. “I rolled down the hill, hit my head on a rock and hit my eye,” Leno added of the incident.
However, fans aren’t buying his story, with some claiming his injuries look more like a beating.
Citing another injury in which the comedian broke, among other things, both kneecaps last summer in what he said was a motorcycle accident.
Conspiracy theorists came up with the theory that Leno must have a large gambling debt to the mafia or loan sharks and have been physically charging him for non-payment.
“So Jay Leno was set on fire a few years ago, staying in a Hampton Inn while worth millions of dollars, with an eye patch, a bruised face, a broken wrist and a missing fingernail. And he wants us to believe him. .. Did you fall down a hill???’ asked a user
Another tweeted: “I’ve never believed in a conspiracy more than Jay Leno with a huge gambling debt.”
The theory is fun and consistent with the clichés about how the mafia enforces things.
But the fact is that Leno has a net worth of around $450 million thanks to his long career as a comedian and late-night television host.

After his fall down the hill, Leno got up, dusted himself off, and headed to the restaurant across the parking lot, where he walked straight into the restaurant and ordered the chicken parmigiana he had been looking for.
After eating chicken and garlic bread, he went to a nearby CVS to buy an eye patch and then headed to do his show at The Palace Theater in Greenhouse.
Once he returned to California, Leno headed to In-n-Out in Burbank for a burger and fries with his bruises visible.
He did not seek medical attention for his bruise or broken wrist until he returned to Los Angeles.
