Conan O’Brien will be hosting the 58th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards. This will not be O’Brien’s first time hosting the award show. He hosted the ceremony back in 2002 and the Emmy people were reportedly very eager to have him back. One of NBC's funniest hosts, O'Brien is sure to bring a lot of laughs to what is usually a fairly formal event. The role of a host at an event like the Emmys can make or break the evening and its highly unlikely that O'Brien will disappoint.

O’Brien’s been quite successful in the hosting business for well over a decade. He’s hosted NBC’s ‘Late Night With Conan O’Brien’ since 1993 and is set to replace Jay Leno on the ‘Tonight Show’ in 2009.

The Emmy’s are set to air live on NBC on August 27th.
