conan-obrien New York City, Jan 14 (THAINDIAN NEWS) There is rising speculation that the host of the ‘Tonight Show’ – Conan O’Brien is on his way out. And the surprisingly bit is that this information was made public not by Conan’s team but by Bill Simmons who is the ESPN Sports columnist.

Bill Simmons, the ESPN Sports columnist, just tweeted to his 1 million followers that O’Brien’s staff is telling talent reps next week will be his last. Simmons tweeted that “FYI: Next week is Conan’s final week hosting the Tonight Show. His staff is trying to book big guests so he goes out with a bang. It’s true.” So if all this information is true then next week is going to be last for Conan on ‘The Tonight Show’.

Maybe Conan might shift to Fox. Fox executives have expressed some interest in O’Brien and they might offer him a show that starts at 11 p.m. EST. Conan O’Brien had waited five years after being promised the “Tonight” show and its time slot after the late local news. He moved his family and staff from New York to California. And he took all those pains for a show that lasted just 6 months.
