“You know, the word ‘extraordinary’ is often overused, but I think it’s really appropriate for Leonard. He was an extraordinarily talented man, but he was also a very decent human being. His talent embraced directing as well as acting and photography. He was a very sensitive man. And we feel his passing very much. He had been ill for a long, long time. And we miss him very much."

William Shatner Reads Levi Johnston's (Alleged) Tweets

William Shatner reads the Twitter poetry of Levi Johnston. Even more amusing is Johnston is demanding a retraction from NBC.

Rex Butler -- Levi's lawyer -- tells TMZ the Alaskan is demanding a retraction from NBC. What really pisses Butler off ... before Shatner's dramatic reading of Levi's putative Twitter page, Conan said: "All real ... we did not make these up."

Butler says the Twitter page is NOT Levi's and that, "We are in the process of dealing with Twitter first. I think they have an obligation once something like this happens to make some kind of corrective measure."

Here is a recent Johnston tweet.

if NOT A VIRGIN WAS ok !! or that black people love CHICKEN- cause they don't , they hate chicken... just look at at my pics, TANK is black

Tank is Johnston's bodyguard. Johnston admits many of his tweets don't make sense. He is tweeting that he is not a racist. Interestingly, Johnston isn't pushing back against Conan O'Brien refering to him as a douchbag.
