We understand, believe me, how hard this is for all of you and we wish you all the best," said Conan.

Why not have a roast of Charlie Sheen on the same night, following the "Men" premiere? Now, the roast has its official host, or Roastmaster, in Seth MacFarlane. The writer/director/actor is the creator of "Family Guy," "American Dad" and "The Cleveland Show," and provides character voices for many of the leading characters in the shows.

Most people don't want to spend any more time at the DMV than they absolutely have to. Ashton Kutcher, apparently, wants to spend even more.
