Late night talk show host and comedian Conan O’Brien will be the headliner for 2013’s White House Correspondents Association Dinner.
WHCA president and Fox News correspondent Ed Henry tweeted the news out Wednesday morning:

This will mark the second time O’Brien has hosted the annual event in Washington, D.C., which involves “roasting” the president, other lawmakers, the press and any celebrities that may or may not attend.
ABC late night host Jimmy Kimmel headlined the event last year.
