Missed The Last Dance: Celebrities Who Didn’t Make It To Prom
Conan O’Brien
Conan O’Brien didn’t go to his prom, but we don’t know why. Apparently the story was too traumatic to divulge. He confessed that he missed the fete in a letter to 16-year-old Nikki Simmons. She invited Conan to her own prom but he respectfully declined:
“Dear Nikki,Thanks for your very flattering offer. It’s great to know I have such a devoted fan out there, and I’m sure you would make a great prom date. (I didn’t go to mine — it’s a very sadstory.) Unfortunately, I got married recently, and my wife doesn’t allow me to go to proms anymore with cute 16-year-old girls. Still, it was very cool of you to ask me.Thanks and have a great evening. Your friend, Conan.”
