Conan O'Brien made Conor McGregor a €1 coin with his face on it... it's The Dredge

All the best of the day’s celebrity dirt.

EVERY WEEKDAY MORNING, DailyEdge.ie rounds up the best of the day’s celebrity dirt from the top to the very bottom.

Ahead of his eagerly anticipated fight with Nate Diaz, Conor McGregor appeared on Conan last night. Among other things, the pair chatted about the recent fan-led campaign to get McGregor’s face put on a €1 coin.

“If you get a certain amount of petitions, they must discuss it in the Oireachtas, which is like the government in Ireland,” McGregor explained. “And my fans backed me like crazy. They got a hell of a lot of petitions up to get my face printed on money and they discussed it.”

When I found out about it, I campaigned like crazy for it.

O’Brien then showed McGregor what such a coin might wind up looking like.

Later in the interview, McGregor demonstrated his signature kick on Conan O’Brien, a technique he described as being akin to swinging “your heel around like a baseball bat”.

Doing the country proud, Conor.

Justin Timberlake sent a very sweet (and extremely sappy) message to his wife Jessica Biel to mark her birthday yesterday. JT posted the following photo on Instagram and wrote:

Happy BAE-DAY, baby!! I can’t put into words what you mean to me.. You are the GREATEST Mommy and Wife a man could ever ask for. I love you to the MOON AND BACK!! — Your Huz

Your Huz.

As bad as using the hashtag #TheBoyDidGood, tbh.

Finally, Beyoncé treated the world to loads of behind-the-scenes photos from her recent Super Bowl performance. 

Here she is dancing with Blue Ivy.
