This clip from The Tonight Show features guest host Jay Leno showing the evolution of an ad in the Duluth News Tribune for the 1990 film White Palace at Superior’s Mariner 4 Theatres. Watch as Susan Sarandon’s dress expands up her torso.
The Duluth Central Trojans Facebook page released this gem of a clip today, noting the segment is from 1991. We later learned the clip has been on Bruce Ojard’s YouTube channel since 2016.
Leno mentions at the end of the clip that Johnny Mathis is the upcoming guest. Numerous internet sources give the date Dec. 19, 1990 for Mathis appearing on the show, but Leno also says the last newspaper clip is from the week of Feb. 9, which would indicate the episode is indeed from 1991. Either way, it’s from roughly 30 years ago.
