Conan O’Brien is revealing secrets about hosting the Oscars 2025.

Conan O’Brien hosted this year’s Academy Awards and he has revealed some golden ideas he and his writer weren’t allowed to execute. In an episode of his “Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend” podcast, O’Brien and Mike Sweeney, who served as his head writer for the Oscars, discussed some behind-the-scenes moments from the recent event.

It played out like a scene in the city, with Demi Moore’s back ripping open so her younger self could emerge, but instead of Margaret Qualley, Conan O’Brien’s shocking red hair popped out. It was weird and gross,

Conan O'Brien is shedding light on the strict rules that involve the Oscars. Speaking on the Wednesday, March 13 episode of his podcast "Conan Needs a Friend", the comedian, 61, revealed that there were firm do's and don'ts when it came to the Oscar statuette.
