    @ConanOBrien

    I've decided to follow someone at random. She likes peanut butter and gummy dinosaurs. Sarah Killen, your life is about to change.

    I don't care about the guests either. But they definitely bring in viewers.

    Andy pretty much summed it up.

    Conan O'Brien's lone Twitter followee becomes a star

    Conan O'Brien, the deposed late-night talk show host, has picked a 19-year-old student as the one person he will follow on Twitter, turning her into an online star.

    By Nick Allen in Los Angeles


    Sarah Killen's life has been turned upside down by the stunt. Last week she had three Twitter followers, now she has 20,000.Her new-found popularity also means she has been given a new computer and offers of help paying for a dress and drinks for her wedding in September.

    O'Brien, the former "Tonight Show" host, left NBC in a deal that barred him from TV appearances for several months.He has taken to Twitter to reach the masses during his exile and has amassed more than a half-million followers.

    But he had not been following the feeds of anyone else and decided to change that by picking one person.O'Brien posted: "I've decided to follow someone at random. She likes peanut butter and gummy dinosaurs. Sarah Killen, your life is about to change."

    Since then Killen, who lives in rural Michigan, has picked up followers at a rate of 150 per minute and been inundated by requests for media interviews. She said: "It's totally nuts." Her fiance John Slowik Jr said he now wants O'Brien to be best man at the wedding.

    Conan is awesome.

    I saw like 3 of those accounts holding a conversation on that chick's page. I figured they were fakes just trying toget in on the attention.

    I guess not.

    One word:

    ratings

    For the first time since Jay Leon returned to 11:30, The Tonight Show trailed Late Show in the early metered market numbers (3.5 rating for Letterman versus 3.2 for Leno). In the 25 markets with local People Meters Leno held a slim edge with adults 18-49, but he did yesterday as well and when the numbers for the broader national market were factored in, Late Show wound up leading Tonight Show in the 18-49 demo, too.
