Conan O'Brien's 144 Characters

· From @ConanOBrien: "This is how many people it took to write today's tweet: 'Jumbo' shrimp? WTF!!" Hey, don't sweat it, Coco. This is how many it took to write Leno's "Cheney-O's" joke.

· Casting tidbits: Marion Cotillard will star opposite Owen Wilson in Woody Allen's still-untitled next film, set in Paris. And Justin Timberlake and Molly Shannon have joined Bad Teacher, already starring Cameron Diaz, Jason Segel, and Lucy Punch...who replaced Nicole Kidman in Allen's You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger, out later this year. See how it all comes full circle? [Deadline, The Playlist]

· Meanwhile, Miss Piggy will channel Lady Gaga in Segel's (still spinning!) upcoming Muppet movie, which we find surprising considering Gaga slaughtered, skinned and wore over 50 of Kermit's relatives to a recent media function. Ah well -- c'est la vie, n'est pas? [Hollywood Life]

· Recovered yet from yesterday's 7 Star Wars Photos That Will Blow Your Mind? Here's Lara Croft and Slave Leia having a snowball fight. (Your brain = KABOOM.) [Topless Robot]

· JK Rowling reappears on Twitter (to say she's still too busy with her longhand fantasy-spinning to talk). Per word, that Tweet's worth about £78 million. [@jk_rowling]

· Meanwhile, her greatest creation denies he's gay, despite being made aware he bears the mark of the Gay Face. May the circle be unbroken. [Towleroad]
