Kanye and Conan O’Brien…and rumors of a new boo?
Posted by Miss Info under Fashion , Hmmm? , Quotes , Relationships and Family , Videos[23] Comments
Conan is my favorite talk show host! He and Kanye share a humorous chat…
Kanye says that he’s going to do something about the vulture-like state of paparazzi. I wonder if that’s overly optimistic. Didnt even George Clooney try that a few years ago?
Love Conan’s Gibb rendition.
But that bathroom comment was completely manic. Most awkward moment ever on Conan? I wish Conan had a blog (one that wasnt on the radar so that he could be completely honest on it) just so that I could find out his reaction to that moment.
But in far more silly ‘Ye news….NYMag and UK tabloid The Sun are speculating that Kanye’s heartbreak is being tended to by 19-year-old model-of-the-moment Sessilee Lopez….
NYMag says:
“Looks like Sessilee Lopez has caught herself a new beau. After Kanye West handpicked the rising star for his “Flashing Lights”*** music video, the Sun reports that the two “have spent a lot of time together recently as Kanye has invited her along to numerous parties. They’ve also spent some down time together.” The pairing isn’t surprising — after all, Kanye is the fashionphile and Sessilee a rising runway star. She walked Marc Jacobs, Diane Von Furstenberg, Karl Lagerfeld, Lanvin, and more at the spring shows. Wouldn’t it be great if some awkward backstage conversations happened? Oh stars and models, they really aren’t just like us.”
(***she was in flashing lights? In the spike jonze version isnt that Rita G? And in the unreleased version, the star looks nothing like this girl. hmmm.)
Well, she’s very modelesque and chic, and probably a lovely gal. But I’m not sure I buy it…only because, unless ‘Ye’s taste in GFs has changed drastically in the past year…. this gal Sessilee seems to be missing 2 of Kanye’s favorite things ; )

That was a great interview. That whole dialogue about auto tune was hilarious, Conan singing auto tune, then asking if Kanye would sample that.

Conan is the best late night host since David Letterman. He can make even a dry interview funny.
I dunno how Jimmy Fallon can follow him though. WTF?
Thank god for The Roots, otherwise 11:30 would be dead to me.

Don’t trust The Sun. Seriously Info. I could call them up right now, talk a load of s*** and they will print it.

@ Miss Info: Do you think Conan will adjust well to the 11:30pm slot? No Jimmy Kimmel for you?
November 26th, 2008 at 7:59 pm
I was a lil worried bout Conan’s move to LA….Leno is such an inherently cheesy atmosphere, but sometimes very funny too….but then I thought about Conan’s Canadian and Chicago stints which have been good. And I think he’ll do fine.
Kimmell is cool but sometimes a bit forced.
fallon, though?
I’m worried.

Conan has been my dude since the beginning. This interview was great. Awkward, but great.
November 26th, 2008 at 8:09 pm
so….we’re all just gonna act like that bathroom comment was normal?
November 26th, 2008 at 9:24 pm
Conan sounded aight on that auto-tune induced mic. Hahahaha!!! I can see Kanye asking him to come into the studio to do a few drops…lol.

@Info
Come on sometimes you gotta take a piss at a very inopportune moment and as we all know Kanye doesn’t have that filter that tells us what not to say so he was honest. If he would have left a stain on the couch that would have been awkward.

Oh and that girl is in the 3rd version of the Flashing lights video(the creepy version): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLu3_W0rqPo

kanye was kind of stuck up in this interview.
i really wanna meet conan before i die.i love dude.that singing at the end was hilarious.
November 27th, 2008 at 1:19 am
@miss info:
i worry about fallon too. guess that’s why they had to bring in the roots. i was watching conan live and i was like wtf kanye. conan is the king of awkward but damn, ‘ye had conan like “err…..”
haha

the bathroom thing explains why he seemed so uptight…i can see Kanye being less hard talking to freaking Conan…and i wondered if it was the whole paparazi talk…but that def. clearded up his deminoir
November 27th, 2008 at 5:55 am
Jimmy Fallon is a cornball. Joel McHale from Talk Soup should have been the new host of Late Night. He was funny when Conan interviewed him.
November 27th, 2008 at 10:58 am
i don’t find the bathroom thing abnormal..
n allat
mabey if it was a charlie rose interview or somthing like that.. but comedians love moments like that n all lat..
u know what it is info?? its cause you’re a girl n all that… man to man i think
Conan had empathy or sympathy <–awe lat..
info u don’t know what its like when its
all the way at the tip about ta rip n awe lat..
November 27th, 2008 at 4:39 pm
that shit was a forrest gump moment lol and when keeping it real goes wrong.. i could see dave chapelle doing a skit about this shit
November 27th, 2008 at 5:34 pm
You guys wanna watch some Jonathon Ross. REAL talk show right there.
November 27th, 2008 at 7:08 pm
oo and @ miss info don’t you realize by now thats what makes kanye, kanye. he doesn’t give two shits about what you or anyone else thinks of him. he speaks his mind no matter how inappropriate it is or how award it may sound, don’t get it twisted he sounds like an idiot a lot of the time but fuck it thats what makes him, him
November 28th, 2008 at 8:45 am
Kanyes hella dope .. no question …
But i think his cold behavior and arrogant appearance on conan was for publicity …
you know, just to blend with 808 & HEARTBREAKS .
Info … im right, right?!
November 28th, 2008 at 11:53 am
Did Kanye try to compare legislation against paparazzi to the 60’s sit-ins? And then he’s wearing Lego? And after all that I still like Kanye…
And co-sign on Jimmy Fallon being a cornball.

Born n raised in the Bronx to Jamaican parents Damion Kyng moved all around the BX (webster, tremont, kingsbrigde…) in and out of various hustles doin his best to help with bills in the house; been writing screenplays, short scripts (high ranking on AMERICAN ZOETROPE), poems n rhymes since thirteen. People round da way who didn’t like da flo of hip hop asked Kyng to hop on da mic bout a year ago, his style is uncomparable but if there had to be a comparision many would say OUTKAST (only in that you can always expect something different n entertainin) now he has EIGHT tracks on da SOUNCLICK charts, has music being played on internet radio stations n mixtapes (unsigned hype volume 4 by DJ DESTINY/twisted studios)… reppin da underground MC who will make it based on skillz as opposed to PURCHASED HYPE – expect big things to come…
I.C.E gon feed da hood…
