OBrien probably falls in the latter category.
What followed after was the most inspiring, emotional, frustrating, and educational moment in my career.
Inspiring because of the massive support Conan and the show got from his audience.
Emotional because no one knew what was going to happen.
I saw people I would work with on a daily basis take sides.
I also came to thinkJay Lenomight not be the nice guy Id thought he was.
Didnt he also think it was a terrible idea?
I didnt know what to think anymore.
All I knew was I was disappointed.
I tried to focus on the positives.
But my favorite moments have nothing to do with any of that.
When Conans name wasthrust even moreinto the spotlight, the press wanted any glimpse of him outside the studio.
They started waiting for him down the street from his house.
Not a single member of the paparazzi knew where he went.
We were waiting for the contract to be done.
It was tense, to say the least.
The show took women and made them live in a house together, and then filmed everything that happened.
It wasThe Real Worldwith seven women with tempers and healthy libidos.
They fought, they hooked up with strangers and one another, and they partied hard.
If I could have an alter ego, it would be a Bad Girl from theBad Girls Club.
I exploited Conans vulnerable moment and used it as an opportunity to catch up with this insane reality show.
Conan, Rick, and I sat there without speaking.
Conan and Rick were contemplating the next career move for Conan.
I couldve done better.
But I freaking love that show.
