Charlyne Yi To Guest In Conan Today – Jacktimes.com

Charlyne Yi To Guest In Conan Today – Jacktimes.com


Today’s episode of the Conan show will feature Charlyne Yi, alongside Jon Hamm and Fistful of Mercy.


Charlyne is a multi-talented young woman in today’s media. She acts, sings, makes music, paints, and writes. Her screenplay, Paper Hearts, won the Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award in the 2009 Sundance Film Festival. In that story, she portrayed a fictionalized version of herself. She wrote about her ex-boyfriend, Michael Cera, in that film, too.


Charlyne’s love for music is evident in her being a member of the band Old Lumps, with Jessica Cowley and Dave Horwitz. She also used to be a member of the musical duo Glass Beef.


Charlyne’s guesting in Conan later today will certainly mean a lot for the show’s followers. Considered as one of the really talented in show business today, Charlyne will bring in more fun for the show.

“This has been such a year of growth and expansion creatively for us,” she said backstage after winning Duo of the Year, reports USA TODAY’s Brian Mansfield. “We’re super-excited about the fans that we’re bringing into country music.”


Added Kristian Bush: “It’s also interesting to see people admit that they’re country music fans. … People show up every day and say, ‘Man, I love this song. I had no idea I was a country music fan.’”

84-Year-Old Gene Shalit Leaving 'Today' Show

84-Year-Old Gene Shalit Leaving 'Today' ShowGene Shalit has panned or praised his last movie for the 'Today' show.

The critic, known for his bushy hair and mustache, said Tuesday that he's leaving the show, where he's reviewed movies for 40 years. The last time his 'Critic's Corner' appeared on the morning show was in May, when he reviewed 'Shrek Forever After.'

The 'Today' show said it would air a salute to the 84-year-old Shalit on Thursday. Executive producer Jim Bell says 40 years on the same show is "a feat unlikely to ever be matched."

In a news release, Shalit says he wasn't retiring, and that he'll do work on the Internet and in commercials.

Today in History

Today is Sunday, Nov. 7, the 311th day of 2010. There are 54 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History:

On Nov. 7, 1940, Washington state’s original Tacoma Narrows Bridge, nicknamed “Galloping Gertie,” collapsed into Puget Sound during a windstorm.

On this date:

In 1885, the transcontinental Canadian Pacific Railway was completed as the last spike was driven at Craigellachie (kray-geh-LAH’-chee), British Columbia.

In 1893, the state of Colorado granted its women the right to vote.

In 1910, the Victor Herbert operetta “Naughty Marietta,” featuring the musical number “Ah! Sweet Mystery of Life,” opened in New York.

In 1916, Republican Jeannette Rankin of Montana became the first woman elected to Congress.

In 1917, Russia’s Bolshevik Revolution took place as forces led by Vladimir Ilyich Lenin overthrew the provisional government of Alexander Kerensky.

In 1944, President Franklin D. Roosevelt won an unprecedented fourth term in office, defeating Thomas E. Dewey.

In 1962, Richard Nixon, having lost California’s gubernatorial race, held what he called his “last press conference,” telling reporters, “You won’t have Nixon to kick around anymore.”

In 1972, President Richard Nixon was re-elected in a landslide over Democrat George McGovern.

In 1973, Congress overrode President Richard Nixon’s veto of the War Powers Act, which limits a chief executive’s power to wage war without congressional approval.

In 1980, actor Steve McQueen died in Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua, Mexico, at age 50.

Ten years ago: Americans went to the polls for an election that would result in a disputed outcome for George W. Bush and Al Gore, with Florida’s electoral votes emerging as critical. Hillary Rodham Clinton became the first first lady to win public office, defeating Republican Rick Lazio for a U.S. Senate seat from New York.

Five years ago: President George W. Bush, in Panama, defended U.S. interrogation practices and called the treatment of terrorism suspects lawful, saying, “We do not torture.” A suicide bomber blew up his vehicle at a checkpoint south of Baghdad, killing four American soldiers.

One year ago: In a victory for President Barack Obama, the Democratic-controlled House narrowly passed, 220-215, landmark health care legislation to expand coverage to tens of millions who lacked it and placed tough new restrictions on the insurance industry. David Haye won the WBA heavyweight title with a majority decision over Nikolai Valuev in Nuremberg, Germany.

Today’s Birthdays: Evangelist Billy Graham is 92. Actor Barry Newman is 72. Singer Johnny Rivers is 68. Singer-songwriter Joni Mitchell is 67. Singer Nick Gilder is 59. Gen. David Petraeus is 58. Actor Christopher Knight (“The Brady Bunch”) is 53. Rock musician Tommy Thayer (KISS) is 50. Actress Julie Pinson is 43. Rock musician Greg Tribbett (Mudvayne) is 42. Actor Christopher Daniel Barnes is 38. Actors Jeremy and Jason London are 38. Actress Yunjin Kim is 37. Rock musician Zach Myers (Shinedown) is 27.
