Here are the best jokes of the week from the late night comedians including Jay Leno, Conan O’Brien, David Letterman, Craig Ferguson, Jimmy Kimmel and Jimmy Fallon:
This horse meat scandal just keeps growing. And it isn’t happening only in Europe. According to a new report, donkey meat has been found in hamburgers in South Africa. Consumers said when they were eating the burgers, they sensed something was wrong but they couldn’t quite pin a tail on it. –Jay Leno
In fact, in South Africa more than two-thirds of the meat products tested contained undeclared ingredients. Or as we call that in this country, a hot dog. –Jay Leno
For the first time ever, NBC finished fifth in the ratings. Fifth! If we were a racehorse in England, we’d be a Burger King Whopper now. –Jay Leno
President Obama said this week that after four years as president, “you realize all the mistakes you’ve made.” so apparently he DOES watch Fox News. –Jay Leno
Today the Pope made his last public appearance. That is, until the new season of “Dancing With the Stars.” –Conan O’Brien
The Pope said that the past few years have been very difficult for the church and at times he felt that “the lord seemed to be asleep.” When asked for comment the lord said, “You try staying awake through a Latin mass.” –Conan O’Brien
Big international controversy about the Oscars. When they aired in Iran, the Iranian government digitally added sleeves to Michelle Obama’s gown. They also altered the video so that Jennifer Lawrence is now deliberately tripped by the Israelis. –Conan O’Brien
Hundreds of employees of Weight Watchers are complaining about the company’s low wages. The employees said, “They’re paying us peanuts. By the way, they’re only six points per serving.” –Conan O’Brien
It’s tax season. Has anybody been to their accountant? I used to go in with a short form and be out of there in 10 minutes. Well, now I went to the guy and the first thing he says to me when I walk into the office is, “Are you sure you weren’t tailed?” –David Letterman
Sequesters — any idea what those are? The star of “Rocky” was Sequester Stallone. That’s as close as I can come. –David Letterman
Congratulations to Chuck Hagel, new secretary of defense. And today, he’s already off to a bad start. He’s going to bring all of the troops home from Afghanistan, but they’re coming on a Carnival cruise. –David Letterman
Italy just had its elections. There’s no winner. There’s no government in Italy. People over there have been running wild through the streets, waving their hands in the air. And then they heard about the elections. –Craig Ferguson
Italian women are some of the most beautiful in the world. This is why the Vatican is in Italy. If a man can walk across Italy and retain his celibacy, he’s got what it takes to be a priest — or an interior decorator. –Craig Ferguson
A lot of Americans can’t believe how crazy the politics are in Italy. A comedian might become prime minister. We would never do that in America. A pro wrestler? Sure. Stuart Smalley from “Saturday Night Live”? Yeah. –Craig Ferguson
TLC has renewed its reality show, “Breaking Amish,” for a second season. Parents of those kids would be so proud if they had any idea what that meant. –Jimmy Fallon
Americans are bracing for this thing called the sequester — when $85 billion will be cut from almost every part of the budget. So teachers, meat inspectors, and TSA workers will all be affected. So if you’re someone who teaches people how to keep bad meat off airplanes, this is a tough weekend. –Jimmy Fallon
In his final speech before resigning, Pope Benedict said that he is not abandoning the Catholic Church. Like most Catholics, he’ll be back for Christmas and Easter. –Jimmy Fallon
Researchers in Germany now say that human longevity has improved so rapidly over the past century that 72 is the new 30. That is bad news for parents. You’ll never get the kids out of the house now. “Dad, I’m only 50. That’s like 17.” –Jay Leno
A storm dumped 17 inches of snow on Amarillo, Texas, yesterday. It was really confusing for people sneaking over the border. They thought they’d gone all the way to Canada. –Jay Leno
In a White House briefing, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano warned that sequestration would affect border security. Her remarks raised eyebrows in Washington and got big laughs in Mexico. –Jay Leno
Doesn’t sequestration sound like some kind of side effect from a bad medicine? –Jay Leno
Somebody noticed that none of the Oscar winners thanked God. To add insult to injury, at his last sermon, the same day, the Pope thanked Harvey Weinstein and Meryl Streep. –Conan O’Brien
It’s being reported that next season, “Downton Abbey” will feature its first black character. The producers hope this will lead to “Downton Abbey’s” first black viewer. –Conan O’Brien
Longevity scientists said that compared to last century, 72 is the new 30. However, they said that Larry King is still very, very old. –Conan O’Brien
The White House officially released portraits of the White House gang. You can all see the portrait of Hillary Clinton. It will be on next month’s cover of the “Sports Illustrated” pantsuit issue. –David Letterman
The Pope was fired a couple weeks ago. They caught him stealing communion wafers. –David Letterman
The Pope does not earn a nickel. No paycheck, no money coming in, nothing. That must drive his wife crazy. –David Letterman
Earlier tonight ABC announced its new “Dancing With the Stars” lineup. I was confused. I thought the sequester eliminated that. –David Letterman
Today they announced the new cast of “Dancing With the Stars.” Guess who they got this year? Ingo Rademacher. I can’t believe they got him or her. –Craig Ferguson
The show also got Dorothy Hamill and Andy Dick. I know Dorothy Hamill and Andy Dick. One is the prancing ice princess who stole my heart in Montreal and the other one is Dorothy Hamill. –Craig Ferguson
This morning on “Good Morning America,” ABC unveiled the new cast of “Dancing With the Stars.” It was a who’s who of who needs money. –Jimmy Kimmel
TLC announced that “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo” will soon be on the air in Australia, Latin America, and the Netherlands. Personally, I’m not in favor of exporting our reality shows to other countries. Deporting our reality shows, yes. But exporting, no. –Jimmy Kimmel
Manti Te’o was apparently one of the slowest linebackers to run the 40-yard dash at the NFL’s scouting combine yesterday. You can tell he took it to heart because today he spent three hours on an imaginary Stairmaster. –Jimmy Fallon
Kim Kardashian said that she and Kanye West want to get married, but they’re not going to rush it. And also because they have to wait until Kim is actually divorced. –Jimmy Fallon
Beyoncé has actually designed her own pair of sneakers. The sneakers are made of stingray, ostrich, cat hair, crocodile, and anaconda skins. So if you want a pair of those sneakers, you’d better order them now while species last. –Jimmy Fallon
The online college, the University of Phoenix, could lose its license because of questionable billing policies. Which makes sense when you find out they got their accounting degree from the University of Phoenix. –Jimmy Fallon
“Life of Pi” took home four Oscars. It’s about a young boy trapped at sea on a small boat with a man-eating tiger. Yet with all that, it’s still a better way to travel than a Carnival cruise. –Jay Leno
Jennifer Lawrence won for best actress and worst stuntwoman. –Jay Leno
There was one glaring omission in the “In memoriam” reel: Lindsay Lohan’s career. Didn’t that die last year? –Jay Leno
Pizzas in Denmark have been discovered with horse meat. Pizzas with horse meat. How fast does THAT get delivered to your house? –Jay Leno
Welcome to the show. I’m Conan O’Brien — or perhaps I’m Daniel Day-Lewis in his greatest role yet. –Conan O’Brien
Last night a toilet flooded the lobby where the Oscars show was being held. The show won an Oscar for best portrayal of a Carnival cruise. –Conan O’Brien
Big winner last night was “Life of Pi,” a story of a young man who wakes up in a lifeboat with a hyena, zebra, orangutan, and tiger, which oddly enough, is also the plot of “The Hangover 3.” –Conan O’Brien
South Korea’s first female president was sworn in. Meanwhile, North Korea said, “We’re just going to stick with men named Kim.” –Conan O’Brien
Anybody see the Academy Awards last night? The show was so long that by the middle of the show the audience was begging Daniel Day-Lewis to free them. –David Letterman
Last night’s Academy Awards lasted about three hours and 40 minutes. Even Jennifer Lawrence’s dress was like, “That’s way too long.” –Jimmy Fallon
The entire cast of “Les Miserables” performed a song from the movie, featuring Russell Crowe. Or as the cast of “Zero Dark Thirty” put it, “Now this is torture.” –Jimmy Fallon
The company that owns Olive Garden announced that its revenue has dropped 5 percent in the last quarter. Which explains their new promotion: limited bread sticks. –Jimmy Fallon
