Conan O’Brien Quits That Bitch Posted: 12 Jan 2010 01:57 PM PST Conan O’Brien has addressed the drama surrounding “The Tonight Show” and its legacy, along with the rumors that he’s jumping ship to work for Fox. In a new letter to the “people of Earth”, Conan basically says that he would rather leave NBC rather than switch time slots and that he’s hoping to work it out. He has a point, saying that “The Tonight Show” at 12:05 simply isn’t “The Tonight Show”. Lastly, he funnily concludes the letter with some self-deprecating humor. The full letter, after the jump! People of Earth: In the last few days, I’ve been getting a lot of sympathy calls, and I want to start by making it clear that no one should waste a second feeling sorry for me. For 17 years, I’ve been getting paid to do what I love most and, in a world with real problems, I’ve been absurdly lucky. That said, I’ve been suddenly put in a very public predicament and my bosses are demanding an immediate decision. Six years ago, I signed a contract with NBC to take over The Tonight Show in June of 2009. Like a lot of us, I grew up watching Johnny Carson every night and the chance to one day sit in that chair has meant everything to me. I worked long and hard to get that opportunity, passed up far more lucrative offers, and since 2004 I have spent literally hundreds of hours thinking of ways to extend the franchise long into the future. It was my mistaken belief that, like my predecessor, I would have the benefit of some time and, just as important, some degree of ratings support from the prime-time schedule. Building a lasting audience at 11:30 is impossible without both. But sadly, we were never given that chance. After only seven months, with my Tonight Show in its infancy, NBC has decided to react to their terrible difficulties in prime-time by making a change in their long-established late night schedule. Last Thursday, NBC executives told me they intended to move the Tonight Show to 12:05 to accommodate the Jay Leno Show at 11:35. For 60 years the Tonight Show has aired immediately following the late local news. I sincerely believe that delaying the Tonight Show into the next day to accommodate another comedy program will seriously damage what I consider to be the greatest franchise in the history of broadcasting. The Tonight Show at 12:05 simply isn’t the Tonight Show. Also, if I accept this move I will be knocking the Late Night show, which I inherited from David Letterman and passed on to Jimmy Fallon, out of its long-held time slot. That would hurt the other NBC franchise that I love, and it would be unfair to Jimmy. So it has come to this: I cannot express in words how much I enjoy hosting this program and what an enormous personal disappointment it is for me to consider losing it. My staff and I have worked unbelievably hard and we are very proud of our contribution to the legacy of The Tonight Show. But I cannot participate in what I honestly believe is its destruction. Some people will make the argument that with DVRs and the Internet a time slot doesn’t matter. But with the Tonight Show, I believe nothing could matter more. There has been speculation about my going to another network but, to set the record straight, I currently have no other offer and honestly have no idea what happens next. My hope is that NBC and I can resolve this quickly so that my staff, crew, and I can do a show we can be proud of, for a company that values our work. Have a great day and, for the record, I am truly sorry about my hair; it’s always been that way. Yours, Conan As of now, TMZ’s poll asking whether Conan should say eff NBC is at 92% in favor of “yes”. source: Conan O’Brien Telegraphs Exit from NBC - [tmz]

Channing Tatum Burned His Penis Posted: 12 Jan 2010 12:03 PM PST Channing Tatum burned his penis. While working on the set of “The Eagle of the Ninth”, he was in a wetsuit in the freezing cold. While wading in the ice cold water, people had to pour a mixture of boiling water and river water down his wetsuit so that he could maintain a decent temperature to withstand the cold water. While doing so, one person forgot to mix the water and poured the boiling water down his pants. Of the incident, he said, “Thing is, he’d forgotten to dilute the kettle water. So he poured scalding water down my suit. And I was trying to pull the suit away from my body to somehow get away from the boiling water, and the more I pulled the suit away, the lower the water went. It just went straight down and pretty much burned the skin off the head of my dick.” Yee-ouch! But he isn’t embarrassed by it, which makes us love him more. source: Channing Tatum Is Proud of His Package - [details]

Beyonce 6 Month Hiatus Posted: 12 Jan 2010 09:06 AM PST Beyonce is going to try and take a break. After being one of the hardest working women in the music industry, the 'Single Ladies' singer is going to go on a much need hiatus. She won't be resting any time soon. Besus is up for 10 Grammy Awards and has signed to do a performance at the show. On January 31, 2010 will take the stage one last time before taking at least 6 months to re-energize. “It’s definitely time to take a break, to recharge my batteries,” says Beyoncé, 28. “I’d like to take about six months and not go into the studio. I need to just live life, to be inspired by things again.” Lets hope she wins at least one accolade. It would be embarrassing to walk away empty handed with 10 chances to win. She may be breaking from music for a bit, but that doesn't mean she will be out of the spotlight completely. "I wrote out a contract with myself. I made a list of everything I want to do that has nothing to do with music. Well, some of it does. But I promised myself that I would not go back on tour or in the studio until I finished these things.” It's been no secret that she'd love to headline a musical. We will see how long this "break" lasts. I give it a week of catching up on Gossip Girl and then she is back in the studio. [Click Thumbnails for a Larger Image] [USA Today]
