Taking inspiration from a 26-foot-tall statue of Marilyn Monroe that was recently unveiled in Chicago, Conan O'Brien revealed a gigantic, partially nude statue of trombonist Richie "LaBamba" Rosenberg in this 'Conan' rehearsal outtake.
In this rehearsal outtake from 'Conan,' Conan O'Brien considers paring his band down to a trio in order to save cash.
"God, I wish we had a smooth jazz trio," complained O'Brien. "Think of the money we'd save!"
Anne Hathaway might never get to host the Oscars again, but she could very well have a future in gangster rap.
In an appearance on Tuesday night's 'Conan,' the elegant actress spoke about the negative press she's been getting surrounding her role as Catwoman in the upcoming 'Batman' movie. When Conan asked how she blows off steam, Hathaway said, "The paparazzi attention’s been a little intense. So I actually wrote a rap song about it."
On last night's 'Conan,' J.B. Smoove of 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' gave host Conan O'Brien a lesson in how to move heavy objects. But this wasn't a simple tutorial in lifting with one's legs. For whatever reason, the actor's technique involved a copious amount of highly-suggestive rump shaking.
Conan O'Brien knows that today's sophisticated viewers demand nifty special effects, so the late-night host "hired" a digital effects team to work some CGI magic on 'Conan.' The team's abilities, however, left much to be desired.
There's been no shortage of fan-shot videos and images emerging from the Pittsburgh, PA set of 'The Dark Knight Rises' this week. Last night, Conan O'Brien gave viewers a taste of the upcoming movie with faux amateur footage supposedly filmed by a surreptitious fan.
On 'Conan' last night, Conan O'Brien drew inspiration from Hitler Cat, a six-week-old kitten in the UK unable to find a home because of her resemblance to the genocidal dictator. O'Brien showed "photos" of other animals no one wants because they're doppelgängers for unlikeable famous people.
Basketball legend Shaquille O'Neal was recently outed as a go-kart lover by TMZ and the pictures of his joyride in the itty-bitty car were a sight to behold. But trying to squeeze his 7' 1" frame into a toy Jeep proved nearly impossible on 'Conan' last night.
"I like to feel small. So, I like to ride things that I can't fit in," said O'Neal, explaining his love of tiny vehicles. "People say, 'He can't get into that.' I'll be, like, 'Watch this.'"
Harrison Ford isn't smurfing around. On 'Conan' last night, the actor expressed his intense dislike for the little blue creatures by beheading a plush Papa Smurf.
Ford has good reason to be peeved: the CGI reboot of 'The Smurfs' nearly tied his new movie 'Cowboys and Aliens' at the box office over the weekend. And, to add insult to injury, wife Calista Flockhart paid good money to take their son to the movie, while they saw Ford's sci-fi western for free.
