There were rumors that Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds were going to host this year’s Oscars. But that is not the case because the Academy of Motion Pictures and Sciences named someone else to do it. Who is going to MC Hollywood’s biggest night? The one and only Conan O’Brien!
“America demanded it and now it’s happening: Taco Bell’s new Cheesy Chalupa Supreme. In other news, I’m hosting the Oscars,” said O’Brien.
“We are thrilled and honored to have the incomparable Conan O’Brien host the Oscars this year,” said Kramer and Yang. “He is the perfect person to help lead our global celebration of film with his brilliant humor, his love of movies, and his live TV expertise. His remarkable ability to connect with audiences will bring viewers together to do what the Oscars do best–honor the spectacular films and filmmakers of this year.”
This is a brilliant choice. Hot off of Hot Ones, people are realizing how hysterical this man is! And it is so great that he is finally getting recognized for it!
And talking about great! He is going to have so much with Wicked. It is the first event movie in decades. So I can’t wait to see him dressed as Elphaba! I wonder who will be his Glinda.
The Oscars are on March 2nd, and U will be there for the first time in a long time; there is a host and movie to root for!
It has been 14 years since Conan O’Brien was forced to say goodbye to The Tonight Show and NBC.
If the funny host had opted never to return to 30 Rock, no one would have a problem with that.
However, he has something to promote, so he is making the press rounds and will stop by The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon on April 9th.
I cannot wait to see how it goes when Conan talks about Max’s Conan O’Brien Must Go, which debuts on April 18th.
Personally, I wish he was doing Late Night with Seth Meyers because they are late night’s best interviewers. So you know it would be an interesting and entertaining chat with a lot of yucks!
On April 18th, Conan O’Brien is going to travel to Norway, Thailand, Argentina, and Ireland for his new series Conan O’Brien Must Go on Max.
Today, the streaming service released the first trailer, and we got to see his reunion with his employenemy, Jordan Schlansky.
Schlansky hasn’t changed, and I feel for the people of Argentina as he shares his “knowledge” of their country.
While he has an old friend with him to meet some new friends on that adventure, he will travel alone to his motherland to find out if they know who he is. And they don’t.
But we do. And we know how informative and funny his adventures overseas were, thanks to his old specials, Conan Without Borders. I learned more about Cuba from him than I did from my six years of living in Miami.
So, I can’t wait to see what we learn from this show because his trips are always educational and entertaining.
A few years ago, TBS told us Conan O’Brien must go. And now Max is giving him a show on April 18th called Conan O’Brien Must Go.
Conan is visiting new friends he’s met through his podcast, Conan O’Brien Needs a Fan, where he dives deep with listeners from around the world. Making stops in Norway, Thailand, Argentina, and Ireland, O’Brien surprises some of his most memorable fans while also taking in local culture, cuisine, and sights.
If this is anything like his series Conan Without Borders, then it is a must-watch. He has a way of showing us locations like no one else. It is educational and fun! Because he doesn’t only visit the tourist traps, but he goes to the places that the locals frequent.
