David Letterman staying on air through 2015

David Letterman will stick around to battle Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel at 11:35 p.m.

CBS announced Friday that Letterman, 66, has signed a contract extension taking him through 2015, when Letterman will celebrate 22 years hosting “The Late Show.”

It also means he’ll compete directly with Fallon — who’s replacing Jay Leno on “The Tonight Show” in February.

He’ll also compete with Kimmel, whose “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” which airs on ABC, joined the 11:35 p.m. crew last January.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Letterman reportedly earns around $28 million a year.
