Johnny Carson hosted The Tonight Show for 30 years, sparked the careers of many stars and became close friends with celebrities including actress Dyan Cannon. The pair even dated for a while and despite ultimately splitting up, Cannon doesn’t have any ill will for the late star. In a new interview with CBS News, 88-year-old Cannon was interviewed about Carson. While some found him aloof, she said he was anything but. She described him as “Warm, open, willing. I’ve never known anyone like him. I’ve never known anyone like Johnny.”
