Conan is now following one person on twitter, as of about noon yesterday. She's a totally random person that he contacted prior and offered this bizarre honor. She had 3 followers, and now she has 12,800 (and it continues to skyrocket), because was brand new to twitter so it's not like she had a history that would have been ugly to put under the spotlight. She's already doing interviews and already having free stuff thrown at her.

If a celebrity came to you offering to do this to you, would you go for it? I'd be pretty leery of the intrusion.

Depends who it is, but considering I get anxiety if the jumbotron cameras come by way, I wasn't thrilled about being on the news during the prop8 protests, my Facebook only recently became searchable by name and is completely private to those not on my friends list and my Twitter account is locked probably not.

I think it's really awesome that Conan went from "following no one" to "following who he wants".

Andy tells it straight. Well, as straight as someone who still wants to get a job in the industry can.

Details of Conan's Shocking TBS Deal Revealed

Quote:

Your head is probably still spinning from today’s announcement that Conan O’Brien will topline a late night talk show on TBS in November, which is shocking because a) Conan and Fox had been dancing the negotiation tango for months and b) Conan O’Brien, former Tonight Show host, is going to TBS. The Time Warner-owned cable channel gave Conan an 11:00 PM position in front of Lopez Tonight (George Lopez has already dubbed the power comedy block “LO-CO”), but what was in the package deal that made it an offer he could not refuse? The LAT provides context:

Another article mentioned that Conan was going to refuse the deal because he saw it as doing to Lopez what NBC had done to him. But Lopez himself called Conan and talked him into it.

Not that I watched him much anyway, but that slot pretty much guarantees I never will. If I'm watching TV at 11pm, then I'm watching the Daily Show.
