Creve Coeur Native To Appear On 'The Tonight Show' Wednesday

Jay Leno welcomes a Ladue Horton Watkins High School graduate to his NBC late night show.

The last time he appeared as a guest on The Tonight Show, Justin Willman performed a magic trick that involved a cup of soda over the head of Oscar nominee Hugh Jackman in December.

Now, just a few months later, Willman, host of Cupcake Wars on the Food Network as well as a touring magician/entertainer with a thing for the sleight of hand, will be back on the program Wednesday.

He's set to appear with actress/singer Kristin Chenoweth and singer Josh Groban.

The Tonight Show airs on KSDK-TV (NBC) at 11:35 p.m.
