So you know one of the gimmicks in Conan's last shows was doing "expensive" comedy bits, but obviously they didn't actually buy the car or the Kentucky Derby winner or a Picasso. Apparently he really did hose over NBC on a music bit and it wasn't even the Rolling Stones one.

Quote:
Tom Hanks was a final guest on Conan's last "Tonight Show," and if one trusty tweet is to be believed, Conan blew $500,000 on Hanks' walk-out song. When Hanks entered from behind a curtain to go to his seat, the band played The Beatles "Lovely Rita," which costs NBC half a million dollars. Questlove, who is the drummer for The Roots on "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon," almost instantly tweeted,

yo i hate spoiling but i will have you know that walk on song we just heard was half a milli. i know cause i got the list rate at nbc

and

tom's walkon music on conan is on my "restricted" list---wow a $500,000 walkon song lol.

The song was in honor of Hanks' wife Rita Wilson.

He used to be the head writer for Dave I believe (w/o looking that up)

Chris Elliott was one of Dave's writers and performers when Letterman did "Late Night" back in the '80s...

For those interested, Leno will be on with Oprah for the entire hour tomorrow I believe.
Should be an interesting interview.

NBC has announced that "The Jay Leno Show" will officially leave the air February 9th, three nights before the Vancouver Winter Olympics begin.
