Waxman](https://time.com/author/olivia-b-waxman/)  ## Olivia B. Waxman Staff Writer Aug 26, 2015 2:49 PM UTC   by [Olivia B. Waxman](https://time.com/author/olivia-b-waxman/)  ## Olivia B. Waxman Staff Writer Aug 26, 2015 2:49 PM UTC On _Conan_ Tuesday night, Tony-and-Emmy-Award winning actress Kristin Chenoweth tried to clean up Conan O’Brien’s eyebrows — or ‘manscape’ them as the practice is often called. We’re guessing the procedure was plenty uncomfortable as O’Brien’s eyes bugged out and he even started to tear up. Needless to say, the most hilarious part of the sketch was that there did not seem to be anything wrong with his eyebrows in the first place, so all of that trouble was for nothing. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4011199/kristin-chenoweth-conan-brow/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4011199/kristin-chenoweth-conan-brow/"},"headline":"Watch Kristin Chenoweth Make Conan O'Brien Cry in Pain","datePublished":"2015-08-26T14:49:10.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:23:52.443Z","description":"Beauty is pain","url":"https://time.com/4011199/kristin-chenoweth-conan-brow/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrities"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltbc303500816b2e86/698860e6a988ca51eb6b40e3/screen-shot-2015-08-26-at-10-14-52-am.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Olivia B.
