If Arnold Schwarzenegger is busy trying to come up with a new catchphrase as the host of NBC’s “Celebrity Apprentice,” Conan O’Brien has lots of ideas.
In light of the action icon replacing Donald Trump — whose signature farewell to contestants was “You’re fired!” — the late-night comedian pitched the possibilities on Monday night.
“Arnold Schwarzenegger is the new host of ‘Celebrity Apprentice,’ that’s a real thing, that really happened,” Conan told his audience. “And everyone is wondering what Arnold’s catchphrase is going to be.”
After combing through Schwarzenegger’s filmography, including “The Terminator,” “Jingle All The Way” and “The Expendables,” Conan’s offerings ranged from the obvious (“Hasta la vista, baby”) to the more creatively absurd (“I’ll be back, but you won’t, because you’re fired!”)
