Conan O'Brien: Makes debut on 'The Tonight Show'
On Monday a nervous Conan O'Brien makes debut as host of "The Tonight Show". He began his first monologue after a long filmed segment supposedly showing him running from New York to Los Angeles.
He joins a line of predecessors namely Steve Allen, Jack Paar, Johnny Carson and Jay Leno on television's most historic late-night franchise.
Sources have highlighted this news on Conan O'Brien. According to them during his opening monologue, O'Brien said that he remembered watching Carson as a youngster. He also had said that that was what he wanted to do when he grew up. Now, the red-haired O'Brien said that he imagined somewhere in America a kid is watching him and wondering, "what is wrong with that man's hair?"
Born April 18, 1963, Conan rose to fame as the host of NBC's Late Night with Conan O'Brien from 1993 to 2009, before leaving to succeed Jay Leno to The Tonight Show helm, thereby airing his first broadcast on June 1, 2009.
