Comedian Conan O’Brien must have really enjoyed his surprise visit to the Philippines, judging from the numerous photos he took during the trip.
Conan was in the country shooting segments of his travel show “Conan O’Brien Must Go”, amazing Filipino fans after being spotted in Bonifacio Global City, Taguig.
Earlier this week Conan shared pictures he took with fans around the township, even meeting one who had a childhood photo of him as the lockscreen of her phone.
“In the Philippines, it comes with your phone,” Conan quipped.
Other places he visited was a candy factory and Rizal Park, snapping a photo with a stray cat in the latter.
The comedian even shared a photo of him holding up a portrait a fan made of him wearing a barong – while he was actually wearing one – and jokingly called it “the new Philippines stamp”.
Conan also “channeled General Douglas MacArthur” during a stay in the Manila Hotel suite named after the military veteran, calling MacArthur his childhood Halloween costume for seven consecutive years.
The first two seasons of “Conan O’Brien Must Go” saw the comedian visiting Norway, Argentina, Thailand, Austria and Ireland, where he traced his family’s roots.
In visits to Spain and New Zealand, Conan even met with Oscar winners Javier Bardem and Taika Waititi.
Conan is best known for hosting the late night talk shows “Late Night with Conan O’Brien” (the longest iteration of “Late Night” to date), “The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien”, and “Conan” after writing stints on “Saturday Night Live” and “The Simpsons”.
The Emmy winner will host the 2026 Academy Awards after a well-received stint during the most recent edition of the Oscars.
