Breaking news: Conan O’Brien looks good in jeggings

Comments

Short story shorter: Tim Gunn was on Conan Wednesday night. O’Brien declared that he’d love to do a whole show while wearing jeggings. Last night, he did. The talk show host did a little jig and then later, Khloé Kardashian told him he needed to work on his bum. Our thoughts: Conan O’Brien has pretty nice legs, but we never need to see them again sheathed in faux-distressed leggings.
