Add a section to the Music Video section - he featured in Dawes' music video for their song 'Mister Los Angeles' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWgJWVNIj5U Mrhazzajohnson (talk) 16:03, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
He featured in an advert for Vauxhall before fame.
editNow before Conan O’Brien found fame by hosting Late Night, six years earlier in March 1987 he featured in an obscure advert for Vauxhall Motors in the United Kingdom promoting their limited edition Club models in their model range.
He briefly appeared towards the end of the advert, when he successfully picked up his Cavalier Club by using some sort of huge magnet to collect the car whilst it was being transported on the car transporter under the bridge on the motorway.[1]
The song used in the advert was Runaway by Del Shannon, which was over twenty six years old when this advert was filmed. 82.31.96.109 (talk) 20:45, 11 January 2025 (UTC)

Strange grammar in last paragraph of Personal Life
editThe last paragraph of the Personal Life section contains a seeming non-sequitur:
On October 21, 2011, O'Brien was ordained as a minister by the Universal Life Church Monastery, allowing him to perform a same-sex marriage in New York, then one of the few states in the US where gay marriage was legal, to tape a week's worth of shows.
It seems 'to tape a week's worth of shows' is the remnant of a prior draft sentence which has been left in, and should probably just be dropped. I can't edit the page myself, so I'm putting it here in the talk page. 31.205.14.220 (talk) 01:53, 26 February 2025 (UTC)
- I agree, zapped. Better late than never, I guess, but I'm sorry it took so long. Yngvadottir (talk) 03:59, 23 September 2025 (UTC)
