As we look forward to the multitude of possibilities in 2009, it's important to keep in mind that the future, while exciting, is difficult to predict. We can approach our goals with a carefully plotted precision, but even in the most calculated circumstances, sometimes things go horribly wrong. Take late night talk shows for example. The hosts do their best to keep the shows funny while maintaining the standards and practices enacted by the FCC, but that doesn’t mean they always maintain control. Sometimes the proverbial “crap” simply hits the fan.

Continuing along with a day jam-packed with promotional stops, Kate Hudson was seen arriving at NBC Studios for a special guest appearance on the Late Night with Conan O'Brien show on Monday (June 9).

On the way inside, Kate kindly stopped for a couple of autographs for the fans who'd lined up in anticipation of her arrival before making her way inside to promote good pal David Babaii's WildAid hair products.
