America’s new Tonight Show host Conan O’Brien proved he’s putting his whole self into his new role on Friday when he hit his head filming a stunt for the show. O’Brien went to the hospital, but is relatively fine, if the statement he released following the incident is any indication of his mental well-being: "Last thing I remember, I was enjoying the play with Mrs. Lincoln, and the next thing I knew I was in bed being served cookies and juice," O'Brien said. The only time O’Brien's predecessor Jay Leno missed a show was due to a high fever toward the end of his 17-year reign as the host of Tonight. A Jeremy Piven rerun replaced Friday’s scheduled show with Teri Hatcher and Seth MacFarlane and NBC has yet to announce whether Conan will be back next week.
