Do you recall the 2004 R&B hit "Leave (Get Out)"? In the ballad, the female protagonist implored her no-good man to "Get out right now. It's the end of you and me." And rumor has it that Regina Lasko (Mrs. Letterman) is channeling the then 14-year old JoJo. According to Celebitchy, David Letterman's wife has tossed the gap-toothed late nighter out of their marital home.
