Will You Stay Up Late For George Lopez?

He may have dissed us for an interview this morning, but we still have major love for tall, dark and Chicano funny man George Lopez. Shoot, how can you not be proud of the first Latino late night host? Plus, a source who shall remain nameless (press weren't allowed at the live audience taping last night) said the show kicks booty. Expect Dave Chappelle funny skits and no holds barred humor.

Case in point: Lopez takes a highly offensive sketch of a Latina doll around town to poll everyday city folks. He's pitching the doll to a toy company, but wants to make sure it's not offensive before his big meeting. The doll wears a Mexican flag print bikini with her spare tires hanging out and when you pull the string from underneath her, a baby pops out. He doesn't have his own show for nothing.

Lopez also scored highly talented music director Michael Bearden of Michael Jackson This Is It fame. His Michael Bearden and Los Eses band rocks apparently and the guest list ain't so bad either. Premiere night guests include Ellen DeGeneres, Eva Longoria-Parker and Kobe Bryant. Orale!

Lopez Tonight premieres Monday, Nov. 9 at 11PM.
