Triumph will need some shots

Conan O’Brien may be taking his act on the road – and even overseas.

O’Brien’s exit deal with NBC barred the former “Tonight” host from TV appearances for several months.

So he’s weighing a tour that would take him directly to his fans, according to a person familiar with the proposal.

The person, who was not authorized to publicly discuss the plans, spoke on condition of anonymity.

Details are unsettled, they said last week, but O’Brien may perform live in U.S. venues, including college campuses, and head to Europe.

An O’Brien spokesman declined comment.

The tour could be a prelude to a new talk show for the comedian, who left “Tonight” in January when NBC tried to bump him to a midnight slot. Possibilities include Fox, which expressed interest.

Jay Leno reclaims the “Tonight” seat next month.

More lipstick on the pit bull

Tina Fey will probably reprise her famous impression of Sarah Palin when she hosts “Saturday Night Live” in April.

“It’s inevitable that we’ll try it, at least,” Fey said. “We’ll see if it makes it to air.”

Fey’s four appearances as the former Alaska governor and Republican vice presidential candidate were an icon of the 2008 campaign and drew huge ratings for “SNL.” She won an Emmy for best guest actor.

Palin also made a cameo on “SNL,” briefly appearing alongside Fey in October 2008.
