He’s the hardest working man in showbiz.

Jay Leno isn’t cancelling any work commitment despite injuring his face after after a bad fall.

The former “Tonight Show” host, 74, walked the red carpet for a benefit gala hosted by amfAR, a nonprofit organization for AIDS research, in Las Vegas Friday evening.

He looked dapper in a navy blue suit and matching blue dress shirt. However, his face was noticeably still banged up from his accident last weekend.

Leno still has major swelling under his left eyebrow and bruises all over his forehead, eye and cheek.

He reportedly also told reporters, “I’ve got a broken wrist, but I’m all right.”

 

However, the comedian appeared in good spirits as he gave a thumbs up to the photogs on the carpet.

Earlier this week, Leno also informed paps while out to lunch that he was doing well.

The beloved late-night host told TMZ on Monday that he had fallen down a hill that was “60 to 70 feet high” while walking to a restaurant near his hotel, the Hampton Inn in Pittsburgh.

Leno was staying in the East Coast city last weekend because he had a gig there.

“I fell down. Boom, boom, boom. I rolled down the hill, hit my head on a rock, knocked me in the eye,” he explained of the incident.

The automobile aficionado claimed he “didn’t have a car,” and so he decided to make the mile-and-a-half trek on his own.

Leno did not seek immediate medical attention, but went to the hospital once he was back in Los Angeles.

The hard-working entertainer then even made it to his comedy show at the Yaamava Casino in Highland, Calif., that same weekend, insisting to TMZ that the ordeal is “not that big of a deal.”

Leno’s latest accident comes two years after he was rushed to the hospital due to a freak car fire that left him with third-degree burns.

The comic had to undergo several surgeries and skin graft procedures, but he even downplayed that incident back then.

He told Page Six at the time, “I got some serious burns from a gasoline fire. I am OK. Just need a week or two to get back on my feet.”
