Who knew Conan O’Brien was hiding that buff body under all those suits? On Wednesday, April 3, the TBS late-night personality showed off his surprisingly toned torso when he snuck up on fellow late-night host Chelsea Handler in the shower — part of a sketch for the comedienne’s E! Network show, Chelsea Lately. Handler, 38, was just about to lather up when a naked O’Brien, 49, appeared next to her and began to pick a fight.
“Oh no, not again!” Handler lamented, alluding to her previous shower confrontation with a nude Sandra Bullock. “How do people keep getting in here?”
“This is my studio. You stole it, remember? I still have the key. Plus, this is the best water pressure in Hollywood,” O’Brien replied with a hint of faux anger.
The hosts — both still naked — then proceeded to argue over who was more deserving of the studio and its posh parking space, which is “four inches wider” than O’Brien’s parking space at his new studio. He also accused her of taking and using his beloved back massager.
“I do use that back massager,” Handler fired back, adding lasciviously, “Although I had no idea it was for my back.”
“Just be a man,” O’Brien challenged her. “Admit what you’ve done.”
“I am not a man!” Handler exclaimed. “Everybody knows that I am the first woman in late night.”
“No, that was Joan Rivers,” O’Brien corrected her. To which Handler replied, “Have you taken a good look at her recently?”
The hilarious war of words continued to escalate into an actual physical fight, with Handler slapping O’Brien around and yelling at him to hit her. By the end of the sketch, both stars had (fake) black eyes.
“I feel fantastic!” O’Brien said afterward.
“Good for you, you surprisingly sexy son of a bitch,” Handler quipped. “Now soap me up!”
Chelsea Lately airs weeknights at 11 p.m. EST on the E! Network.
