Why are you trying to hide the fact Conan O'Brien has a receding hairline in the front. Everyone starts to go Bald sooner or later. Conan is not Samson and will not lose his strength if he goes bald. Please Conan do not get Joe Biden's Hair Plugs. You are not going to fool anyone if you do. Do it with style like David Letterman did.

Here is a link to a picture of Conan's real hairline see below. Excuse the Plug.

What "covering up" are you referring to? I don't see NBC slapping a piece on his head, giving him hair plugs, or airbrushing his bald spots for that matter. When he spins around he clearly has a bald spot, that isn't hidden. So what's your point?

Take a look at this link and save the picture and enlarge it. It appears Conan has already had hair plugs.

When I stated before in a post they removed that the real reason Conan was off for so long was he was secretly getting new hair transplants in the front of his head the post were removed. If you look at the picture from the above link you can see it was a bad hair transplant or one that was started. I think they are filling in the rest of his hair now while he is off the air. I would have rather had Conan on the Air right up to the final week before Jay Leno leaves. NBC I believe is doing a Cover Up.

Forget the fact that this whole conversation is completely ridiculous, but Conan has never been about his "appearance". For God's sake, if he really cared so much about how he looked he would have gotten a spray tan and a ton of plastic surgery. The only time his hair looks neat and well done is during the show, brought to you buy hair and makeup. Outside the show (as you see in that picture) he doesn't have such heavy up keep. Combs his hair, puts some gel, and is done. I don't see any signs of "fake hair", just some natural grays coming in.

And, I know you're probably joking about this "cover up" by NBC (or at least, I hope so), to even think that's why he's not on air right now is just retarded. They have to build a show: hire people, build a studio, create a new look, figure out what they're going to do with themselves. Conan and Co. have done Late Night 24/7/365 (or at least close to that) and there's been no time in their working schedule to take on such a cumbersome task. Leaving in February was just sensible timing to allow ample time to prepare for the Tonight show, a proper good bye session for Jay, and a "Hey Jimmy, let's see what ya got" grace period for Fallon to get used to the Late Night scene. Hair? Really? You couldn't think of something else?

It does not take that long to move the show. Is Conan in Tonight School training class for Months?

When Johnny Carson moved the whole show from New York to California the show was back up very quickly. It all does not make any sense. Even if Conan was a Woman and gave birth to a baby it would not take this long.

It does take many months for hair transplants to grow in. A matter of fact about the same time Conan is off the air. I think because Conan uses his hair as his trade Mark the Executives thought the shock of people seeing a bald headed Conan would hurt the show. Maybe the Executives remember when he grew his beard and the negative reaction it received. Personally I could not care less if he has hair or not.

But I do not see anyone else come up with a reasonable theory or explanation why Conan had to go off the Air so prematurely and leave all of us in the cold. Unless Conan is making a secret movie.

Oh My God, you're serious! Wow, I almost can't find the words...


Ok, my mouth has retained verbal capacity. First of all, Conan isn't moving the show, he is starting a NEW show. This isn't the Johnny Carson move, this is the laying to rest of Late Night and the birth of the new and improved Tonight Show. This isn't just some logistic thing. First of all, you have 3 people involved in this whole transition, Conan himself, Jay Leno, and Jimmy Fallon. Then, you have a network, NBC who is orchestrating the running of this shift in programming to their desires based on their calculations of proper changes that will equate in a rise of viewership. To have Conan go off the air and start up his new show right away and kill Jay of instantly would be rushed and turn viewers off. On top of that, you have Jimmy Fallon coming into the ranks. Having Jimmy start when Conan left and Jay leaving when he does allows for there to always be 2 talk show hosts at once and giving everyone good enough time to start their new show. Jimmy started creating his show in October, Conan is started in February, and Jay will start in June to create his new show to air in September. Nothing is a snap of the fingers, it all takes time. There is so much that goes into a television program and any person who watches TV would know that. Conan may be experienced, but he's starting from scratch, not continuing what he had in New York.

But that's not even the point here, you think this is some big conspiracy thought up by NBC executives to attend to Conan's beauty needs. Are out of your mind? Do you hear yourself speak? Is everything working up there? I know they both are Irish Red heads, but please stop confusing Conan with Lindsay Lohan, he's a talk show host, not a movie star or a pop singer. I almost feel my intelligence declining arguing about this.

And for the record, everyone loved Conan's beard.

cutaconan have you heard of the expression of something works don't fix it. You must be one of the NBC Executives that put NBC in fourth place. If NBC changed the Shows Conan and Jay are doing drastically they could ruin the shows. They tried to make Jimmy Fallon into something he was not and that is why Late Night with Jimmy Fallon is having big problems.

I was just saying that it would not surprise me if NBC was making Conan get hair transplants to keep up with his image. Don't forget David Letterman was passed over for the Tonight Show about the time he was starting to lose his hair. In any case if he was getting hair transplants now by the time Conan was back on the Air the transplant hair would have grown in and nobody would have been the wiser about it.

Why NBC took Conan off the Air so early is still a big mystery to me. They must be losing lots of Advertising dollars because face it, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon does not draw as big of Audience and can not possibly charge the same rates for Advertising as with Conan. What was the benefit in doing this? Making Conan stay looking Young by hair transplants to keep his younger audience is the only thing I think makes any sense at all. I think they would have been better off just giving Conan the Howie Mandel look instead and had kept Conan on to the very end would have been better option.

But changing Kings from Sunday night to Saturday does not make any sense either.

No, I'm not an "NBC Executive", I simply have a brain and can understand their thinking, as ass backwards as it can be sometimes. And are you blind/deaf/ or just a balding male with insecurity issues? I told you specifically the reason why they need him to be off the air. If you even would bother to do some research before coming up with these ridiculous concepts of hair plugs and other ********, you'd see that the studio isn't even finished, only about 85% of the show's staff is in LA, the marketing campaign still hasn't even really been devised, and I'm sure a hell of a lot of other things that need to come together is still in the process. Speaking of marketing, ever hear of that? It may do NBC justice to have his face off the air, the people miss him for a few months to draw everyone back in June.

"If it's working don't fix it", do you think the only attraction to Conan is his hair? If they were that concerned, they'd throw a ******* wig on him! And Letterman? Seriously? Where the ***** are pulling all this out of?

Alright, I'm done arguing with this mental paranoia...

cutaconan it does not take that long to relocate the show. Even Johnny Carson never took this much time off. I guess we will never know for sure why this was done. It must now be a very Hairy Situation for NBC because I bet they are now taking a big hit on the ratings on this time slot with Conan being gone. NBC should have left things alone.

how could he hide that?

he would have to walk out backwards

I hope if Conan does get hair transplants they will look real. When I see bad hair transplants my eyes go right to the hair plugs. I also hope I am wrong and Conan is not losing his hair. But Conan does not look bad bald either. If you scroll his picture up where his hair is not showing on top he looks better than Howie Mandel and it makes him look like a tough guy. (At the Top of This Page)

LOL!..... I don't know about the rest of you but the naysayers are starting to really make me laugh! I find them to be great entertainment here myself why not enjoy them for a change?
As far as the hair situation I don't believe that is the reason for the break. Logically they need time to get ready for the new Tonight Show and the time allowed is not that much actually.
Personally I love bald heads! I think Conan could pull off looking good with no hair. He would look good with hair or without it. Anytime one uses alot of hair products( gels etc) on their hair it starts to be a problem. Conan looks best when he has the natural look in other words to me! I love his hair non poofed.....but I love his hair anyway he wears it really because well............I just love Conan!

I just saw a new commercial Conan did, and his new hair transplants look good. Sort of like a Bosley Hair Restoration commercial with an almost natural looking hairline in the front. Maybe Trump should go to the same place.

I believe the way they get Conan's Hair to stand straight up and be able to flop around and get back into the same Erect position just by shaking his head, is they inject his scalp with Viagra just before the show.

Well ceoart, go watch the Access Hollywood videos and you'll get your answer about Conan's hair. He didn't get hair plugs, hell, his bald spot might have even gotten bigger. No criticism from me, he's human, losing hair's a part of life, and a part of Conan, so now you can stfu about all this "hair plug" bs

CONAN!! You just visited Indy, and it was a great. I think you owe it us hoosiers to have an Indy Coorispondant.....And I think I am that person!! Indy is a great city that is always overlooked. We have so much to offer. And you did visit us before you adventure into your "new world"..........

So I would like to take you and your fans to "my world in Indy'. I love comedy, playing pranks, and just having fun. Instead of Jay Walking we could be "Cruis'n Indy with Conan". We have Peyton Manning, Tony Stewart, Brickyard, Indy 500, Ribfest, Miss USA resides in the next county, We did have formula one.........not sure if we still do...........AND WE HAVE SCANDLE ON TONY GEORGE!! Wow, the list goes on.........

I live in Tony Stewarts home town, Columbus Indiana. Miss USA is in the next county, Jackson County Indiana. As well, I graduated with David Cook's stepmom Class of 1982 Greenwood Comm High School.

So, I would like to voulenteer to be the Indy Connection to Late Night With Conan Obrian!!

This could be so much fun!!! I hope you will consider me being a part of your connection to the midwest.

YOUR BIGGEST FAN!!

MARI YOUNG

I find this thread amusing. Not everyone goes bald sooner or later. A majority of people do have a receding hairline as they age. I know some 21 year olds that are already receding.

I watch Conan for Conan not to speculate on a cover up. LOL. If he was having hair treatment, that is his private business. So, if he chooses not to talk about it then how is that a cover up. Some things should be able to remain private even if "you" are in the public eye.

Let's look at this a different way. If I was in Conan's position i.e. Being on television,having wealth, then I am sure I would want to make sure my appearance is the best. Conan's hair is a staple characteristic trait if his television persona so it is not inconceivable he would want to keep up that appearance. However, I would still watch Conan if he was bald.

Frankly, it isn't anyone's business if he has had hair treatments or surgery

Let's look at this logically. I read a lot of people trying to speculate a cover up because it was 3 months until Conan returned. Did you stop to think:

1. Jay Leno needed to finish out his contract.
2. Conan negotiated for time off and took a vacation to spend time with his family.

Why is their always a conspiracy theory going on all the time. LOL.

Don't see and I don't care. I love Conan for who his and not his hair.

Conan totally makes fun of his own hair all the time. I think it's just unspoken.

Even if Conan has done something to his hair, it's been tastefully done and it's not obvious.

I'm pretty sure he have at least been on Propecia and/or Rogaine, and maybe, just maybe have gotten some plugs on his hairline (earlier than this year), but maybe not.

It will be interesting to see how he deals with his hair if/when the balding progresses.

Look at my avatar to see how a bald Conan would look. I am not buying into this 'hair plug' theory... his new Tonight Shows has him with his hair as it looked on his last Late Night show. There's receding areas, there's also a bald spot - last week the camera went above him and showing on the top of his head, a small bald spot.

Conebone definitely had some work done this year.

On today's episode, the bald spot was much less pronounced -- when compared to this screenshot from Oct 08:
