Conan O'Brien and NBC $45 Million Divorce

For those who have been following the O'Brien,Leno,NBC story well it has finally come to an end. As O'Brien inked a deal early today to end his 7-months of being the host on the tonight show paving the way for Jay Leno to come back. According to the network, O'Brien will receive $33 million while his staff gets $12. His last show will be on Friday, when his guests will be Tom Hanks and Will Ferrell(which was O'Brien's first guest on the tonight show).

Leno will return to his old gig on March 1.

I have not really followed this story I do like both Leno,O'Brien. The O'Brien/NBC divorce turn out to be very messing with a bunch of he said/they said crap. In the end O'Brien will be back on tv soon most likely with Fox. In which his show will run up against Jay Leno's Tonight Show for the viewers to decide which one they won't to watch. I will probably channel flip between the two I'm sure that will make Ashley happy.

In honor of Conan O'Brien's 7 months of hosting the tonight show here is a list of things that didn't last longer than that in Hollywood:

The masterbating bear's disappearance from the air waves- 6 months & 29 days

Ed Hardy T-shirts being cool not tacky- 5.5 months

Kid Rock's marriage to Pamela Anderson- 5 months

Lindsay Lohan's third stint as a lesbian- 5 months

Popularity of the "Leave Britney Alone Guy"- 4 months

The plot of "Lost" being vaguely comprehensible- 3 months

Lindsay Lohan's first stint as a lesbian- 3 months

Gary Busey's love affair with an Encino parking meter- 44 days

Joan Rivers 17th face- 6 weeks

Interest in Denise Richards side of the story- 18 hours
