Conan O'Brien Immortalized in Cheetos [video]






Using approximately 2,000 Cheetos sorted from over 50 bags, one artist has painstakingly created a portrait of former Tonight Show host Conan O'Brien. It's not exactly edible, but it might help satisfy your hunger for Coco until his show [hopefully] returns to late night this fall.

The artist responsible for this cheesy masterpiece is Jason Baalman. Don't worry, he doesn't have a weird obsession with Cheetos. Baalman was actually hired by Cheetos to create the portrait. It's made entirely out 3 different flavors of Cheetos for shading and a little glue. The final product took 3 weeks to complete and Baalman posted a time lapse recording of the entire process on YouTube.

Very clever viral video idea right? There's even a contest to win this 5 feet by 4 feet Cheeto O'Brien portrait. Just head over to JustJared for details.
