Funnyman Will Ferrell made good on his promise to rid late-night host Conan O'Brien of his beard -- or red "mistake" as Ferrell called it on Funny or Die -- on Monday night. In a hilariously drawn-out segment, Ferrell played barber for the 'Beardpocalypse' and shaved off O'Brien's whiskers mid-show.

Who doesn't like a good ginger beard? Will Ferrell, that's who. Ferrell recently took to FunnyOrDie to take out his frustration with Conan O'Brien's facial hair. The late night host better take a few pictures for posterity because according to Ferrell, it's coming off. "That thing's a huge mistake and I'm going to come there and fix it myself." Ferrell said. "Whether you like it or not, I'm ...

Conan's Mean Side Exposed in New Film: 'I Physically Fight My Writers'

Posted Mar 11th 2011 at 04:30 PM by Catherine Donaldson-Evans

Audiences know him as a fiery-haired, hyper, late-night goofball, full of energy and banter and wit. But Conan O'Brien's staff knows the other side of the comedian, the dark side. It's the side that's earned him the behind-the-scenes nickname "Mean Conan." O'Brien, 47, says his colleagues think he's even funnier when the devil within is unleashed. But he's also nastier. When he slumps into one ...

Posted Jan 12th 2011 at 06:09 PM by Rebecca Macatee

Conan O'Brien sure can hold a grudge, but I can't say I blame him. The funny man told the AP that while David Letterman reached out to him over the holidays, late night rival Jay Leno did not. O'Brien told reporters today that he and Letterman have "always been good." The CBS host just wanted to make sure that the past year's TV troubles hadn't created any tension between them. Leno, who ...
