A red-headed YouTuber by the name of Gregory Keating is claiming that the late night talk show host is his long lost dad. In fairness, the resemblance is uncanny…

While you might think that having pale skin, red hair and facial features similar to Conan O’Brien would be a disadvantage in life, one up and coming American comedian is using his doppelgänger features to his advantage.

Gregory Keating, from Northern New Jersey, recently posted the video above to YouTube and in it he claims to be Coco’s illegitimate son. In fairness, he could certainly make a few quid pretending to be the real Conan.

“My mother conceived me in 1993 as she worked as a producer for ill-fated ‘NBC News at Sunrise,’ located in 30 Rockefeller Plaza, it was only three floors above the ‘Late Night’ studio. Despite her hard work and dedication, she was fired from her job when she got pregnant,” Gregory says with raised eyebrows.

He then finishes off his rant with: “I want to share with you, grow with you, and dominate late-night television with you— together as father and son!”

There’s no doubt that Conan will eventually pick up on the clip and we wouldn’t be surprised if Gregory started appearing on the show as a guest star or as Conan Jr.

Either way, the pale skin and red hair are really paying off for Gregory…
