While forced to be on hiatus because of his NBC contract, Conan O’Brien needs to find something to do other than count the gray hairs intermingling with his ginger ones.
Sources say that he might have found his calling and is looking into putting on a series of live theatrical show. It would be just like watching him do his thing on The Tonight Show, except there shouldn’t be anyone in the wings waiting to give him the ax! A source says:
“There’s nothing to stop him doing his show in front of an audience at venues like Radio City. It will build more buzz for him as he negotiates his next television contract. It will also keep Conan happy because he doesn’t want to be out of the public consciousness for too long.”
We think it is a decent idea. Much better than sitting around until September and having the sympathy run out!
Would U pay to hear Conan talk?
