Seinfeld did two segments, leaving no time for Berry. Halle cried sour tears backstage because - even though she would be re-scheduled - it would not be on a night with stars as big as Ray and Jerry.
Much to Ray's chagrin (being used to many guest appearances at the series hosted by Sullivan and Carson), it would remain the only Leno show where he was ever invited. Source here.
