London Calling
by American Way Staff"In the best of all possible worlds, sure,
it would be great if image didn't matter," London says. "But
I think it's very naive to think that that's the case. If
you're going for a job interview and you don't look very
good, why would anybody think that you'd respect the place of
business that you're trying to work for? To me, it just
doesn't make any sense to say that it doesn't matter. It's
not about playing some sort of superficial game. It's about
relaying messages before people know you."

All in all, she loves sweatpants.
"I can't always look the way I'd love to look,"
London says. "But I try. I think it's about the effort. It
definitely makes a difference, and I think it makes an impact on
the way people perceive you. But, sure, I love sweats, but I only

Talk, Talk, Talk
In the talk-show realm, where Stacy London now
ventures, Jay Leno has long been king. But his reign is to end
soon. By Ken Parish Perkins
JAY LENOhas long
suffered from the Céline Dion complex - great voice but kind of
boring. If you've heard one song, you've heard 'em all. The same
goes for Leno's arsenal of jokes. In his 15 years at the helm of
The Tonight Show, Leno has become a
distributor of one-liners that are funny when they hit you, yet
often leave as quickly as they arrive, like light rain on a sunny
day. Leno's political barbs are now so calculatedly nonpartisan
that they can be simultaneously funny and irritating. It's as if he
counts them out, making sure Democrats get the same number of
zingers as Republicans.
