LOS ANGELES, Nov. 5 (UPI) -- Jenna Bush Hager interviewed her mother, former U.S. first lady Laura Bush, for a segment on Wednesday's edition of "The Jay Leno Show."

Leno's "Ten @ Ten" segment was adapted to the Central Time Zone because the satellite originated from the Bush home in Midland, Texas. The series of rapid-fire questions was then aptly renamed "9 Questions at 9 O'Clock."

Among the questions Bush Hager asked her mother were, "Mom, since you moved home to Texas, have you received any funny housewarming gifts?" The former first lady responded: "I have received one very funny gift that I got from a friend of mine. He bought it. It's a Laura Bush bobble-head doll. He bought it at the Constitutional Center in Philadelphia. It was on the clearance shelf."

Previous celebrities who have participated in the new segment include current first lady Michelle Obama, Justin Timberlake, Tom Cruise, Cameron Diaz, Miley Cyrus, LeBron James, House Financial Services Committee Chairman Barney Frank, Ben Roethlisberger, Amy Poehler, Sen. John McCain, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, Chris Matthews and Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius.
