Uh oh, Coco.
Reports are saying O’Brien’s staff are none too pleased with the cancellation of the Tonight Show and Conan’s multi-million dollar payout from NBC.
Because now the entire staff is unemployed!!
The Tonight Show staff feels “betrayed” by Conan’s decision to reject the 12:05 am timeslot, saying they’d still have their jobs if the ginge didn’t let his ego play into his choice.
“They all uprooted their lives and their families’ lives to move to LA for him, and now they feel like they have simply been forgotten,” the source explained.
“There are 200 people losing their jobs while he walks off with a payoff worth $30 million. The mood on set and backstage is dismal.”
Producers of the Tonight Show have said that there’s been “no discussion over severance” and Coco keeps telling his employees “he simply doesn’t know what will happen.”
O’Brien and the heads of the Tonight Show better figure out the shit – and fast!
He may not have a staff left for the final week of the show if he’s not careful!
