Conan & Chris Fleming, Jim Carrey ‘Clone’ Rumors, and SNL Cut Sketch Backlash

Johnny Mac delivers a Daily Comedy News roundup, highlighting Conan O’Brien’s Interview Magazine chat with Chris Fleming and praising Fleming’s HBO Max special as his top special of the year. He covers confusion over Jim Carrey’s appearance at the César Awards, with makeup artist Alexis Stone claiming he impersonated Carrey while the awards deny it and detail Carrey’s planned visit. He notes Stavros Halkias and Manscaped auctioned a hairball for $510 to benefit the Testicular Cancer Society, and previews Gabriel Iglesias receiving a Hollywood Walk of Fame star. He reports a women-of-The-Office reunion at the SAG Awards organized by Mindy Kaling, backlash to an unaired SNL “Tourettes” sketch, and a scrapped Trump cold open. He shares podcast/production updates, Comedy Survivor voting, ratings for “Scrubs” and “The Greatest Average American,” NYT streaming special picks, and an AI music video parody about Iran by A Flock of Eagles.
