The Daily Star, Oneonta, N.Y., Friday, June 15, 2012 18 latelaughs Conan: Conan O'Brien U2 singer Bono may have made over $1 billion from Facebook going public. A spokesman for U2 said the band is still going to tour -- but only because the drummer invested heavily in MySpace. A new study shows current members of Congress speak at a 10th- grade level. When reached for comment, Congressman Eric Cantor said, "Nuh-uh!" A new report just came out, and it claims that good cholesterol may not be as beneficial as previously thought. This is really bad news for Domino's new good-cholesterol-stuffed pizza. The Miss Universe pageant was last weekend, and the transgender Miss Canada did not win. Apparently judges were not impressed by her talent: having an Adam's apple. The Tonight Show: Jay Leno The Center for Responsive Politics reports that President Obama has become the first politician in history to raise $1 billion in his political career. Imagine how much more he could have raised if people hadn't lost it all in his economic plan? New research shows that eating organic foods can make people more arrogant and judgmental. In fact, eating just one handful of organic bean sprouts has the same effect as driving 1,000 miles in a Prius. Live: Jimmy Kimmel We're excited because we have a new show premiere tonight here on ABC, a singing competition show. It's about time somebody did one of those. Here's how a TV pitch meeting goes. "OK, so, it's a singing competition, and..." "Stop right there, we love it. We're putting it on." A new "American Idol" winner for the fourth year in a row is the white kid with the guitar. This one's name is Phillip Phillips. It will be hard to forget someone with that name, but I have every confidence that we will. The Late, Late Show: Craig Ferguson It's Memorial Day, although it's not a good day for America's favorite Canadian, Justin Bieber. He's wanted for questioning by the Los Angeles sheriff's department. Apparently Bieber had an altercation with a photographer. Now Justin's on the lam -- he's considered armed and adorable. A photographer says he was roughed up by Justin Bieber. He had to go to the hospital. Doctors say he'll live, but his masculinity will never fully recover. The guy probably will sue Justin Bieber for some cash. But he will be known for the rest of his life as the guy who got beat up by Justin Bieber. How much is that worth to you? It's not such a great day for fans of the game show "Jeopardy," which is everybody. Alex Trebek says he may retire at the end of the season. Trebek says he wants to spend more time at home, arrogantly correcting his family. It was announced today that they're auctioning off the Elvis tomb. The auction house in Memphis actually is selling the place where Elvis left the building. He's not in there, of course, because he's working in a gas station in Henderson, Nev. Selling celebrity memorabilia is nothing new. It started in prehistoric times. Cavemen used to bid on animal skins worn by Larry King.
