A rumor picking up steam this afternoon claims next week will be Conan O’Brien‘s last as host of “The Tonight Show.”
Many outlets are buzzing that a definite end date is set for January 22. “Conan O’Brien’s last night as host of The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien will likely be next Friday,” reports People magazine.
“Conan does not currently plan on doing any more new shows after next week,” adds People‘s source.
However, Gossip Cop reached out to several insiders, and a source very close to O’Brien tells us “no date has been set.”
That same source adds that “The Tonight Show” has a pre-existing hiatus week, beginning Jan. 25, but — until everything is settled — “everyone plans on doing more shows the following week [February 1].”
Gossip Cop would like to stress that because of the nature of the dispute (and on-going negotiations), things can change, but as far as O’Brien and his production team are concerned there is no set end date — yet.
