I don't really know how to prepare you for what you're about to see below, so I'm just going to say it: Conan O'Brien is wearing jeggings in this photo, and it's really not pretty. Jeggings, for the lucky and uninitiated, are a fashion trend of dubious relevance, in which people wear leggings that are printed to look like the most skintight of denim. They look good only on very very tall and thin people, which makes Conan a pretty good candidate actually, but, well… you'll see why this all goes horribly wrong anyway.
Why did he wear them? The excuse seems to have something to do with Tim Gunn, though given that Tim Gunn is a classy man with good sense, and I can't imagine he actually endorses this. Though, since he made Conan aware of the existence of man jeggings, I guess he really is to blame. Check out the image below, but don't look for too long-- it kind of has an Ark of the Covenant ability to melt your brain if you're not careful.
There's video too, so if you want some context, it's your decision to make.
Conan airs weeknights at 11:00 p.m. ET on TBS.
