Reality TV > Rosie O'Donnell will NOT Host Price is Right

June 26, 2007

The AP is reporting that Rosie O'Donnell will not replace Bob Barker as host of The Price is Right, citing that she "doesn't need the money." A confessed "superfan" of the show, Rosie doesn't think it's fair to uproot her family just so she can host her dream job out in LA. And certainly, very few people are arguing with her. Bob Barker apparently said that he thought she would make a "fine host," but let's face it, he's just a hell of a nice guy. 
 
This presumably leaves Drew Carey as the primary candidate for the position, with George Hamilton being another possibility. I think every kid who has ever been sick and had to stay home from school is a little relieved today.
