‘Conan, I want to be your first guest!’ Stewart says following O’Brien’s TBS announcement. By Jocelyn Vena Conan O’Brien Photo: Michael Buckner/ Getty Images On Monday night, New York was abuzz with the news that Conan O’Brien’s next late-night venture wouldn’t be on Fox, as was originally believed, but instead on cable network TBS, which is already the home of George Lopez’s late-night show . While the move came as a bit of a surprise to fans, his colleagues were happy that O’Brien, who is currently on the road for his comedy tour , has found a new place on the small screen. “I’m so happy he has a home,” Martha Stewart raved to MTV News on the red carpet for Good Housekeeping ‘s 125th anniversary celebration. “I knew he would, but he’s fabulous. I love him. Conan, I want to be your first guest!” At the same event, outspoken talk-show diva Wendy Williams speculated that the deal from TBS was probably too sweet to turn down. “When I heard it, I thought it was kind of strange, but you know what, we haven’t heard the financial payout,” she said. “Maybe he’s getting more money than he ever made before. Maybe he’s got a master plan. Maybe it’s only a two-year deal. Maybe he’s not going to be there forever. I don’t know.” Meanwhile, at a “Saturday Night Live” event at New York’s Pierre Hotel, Jimmy Fallon and Andy Samberg commented on the big news. “There’s nothing that Conan can do that I won’t watch. I’m excited for it,” Samberg said. Fallon, who’s been holding down NBC’s “Late Night” since Conan left, felt that the move is right not only for O’Brien, but also for TBS. “It’s great for everybody, great for Conan. I know he’s happy,” Fallon said. “I haven’t talked to him, but I talked to him a couple of weeks ago, and TBS should be really happy because they made a great move. He’s a great, funny dude, and I can’t wait to see him.” What do you think of Conan’s move to TBS? Tell us in the comments! Related Photos Conan’s Career In Photos
