Conan O'Brien to Officiate Gay Wedding on TV

by Chris Harnick, posted Oct 28th 2011 12:30PM

Conan O'Brien Gay WeddingConan O'Brien's return to New York will be quite a memorable trip. According to Vulture, O'Brien will celebrate the one-year anniversary of his TBS series, 'Conan,' by officiating a gay wedding as part of his show.

O'Brien isn't just marrying two random men, he'll be conducting the ceremony of a longtime staff member and his partner.

Gay marriage became legal in New York in July.

O'Brien may be making history for performing a gay marriage, but this isn't the first time a wedding has been part of a late-night talk show. Musician Tiny Tim married Miss Vicki on Johnny Carson's 'The Tonight Show' back in 1969.

'Conan' begins broadcasting from New York on Mon., Oct. 31 at 11PM ET on TBS. His shows will be taped at the Beacon Theater.

Just some more sick perversion that is trying to be forced on mainstream society, as 'normal.'

Im so glad our country allows choices. I know a show i wont be watching. As for Conan, he is doing it for his failing ratings. His career is in the toileet and this episode will push the handle.
