The View host and not-at-all controversial celeb Rosie O'Donnell wants CBS to know that she's very interested in taking over The Price Is Right when Bob Barker retires. She actually has a clause in her contract that allows her to take another job like hosting the game show on another network, but she says that the CBS doesn't want her.
Um, yeah Rosie. Why would anyone want you to host The Price Is Right? My God, the contestants on the show are irritating enough (that's why it's always good to have the calming hand of Bob Barker there), and you want us to watch you? The scary part is that Rosie says that the fact that CBS doesn't want her to host the show is "sad" because she "has visions for the show." Oh, great, you're not only going to host but you're going to change one of the most successful formats in TV history.
Other people we don't want to host The Price Is Right:
- Dustin Diamond
- Paris Hilton
- Ann Coulter

HAHAHA
No way!
I thought she was somewhat sane when she was in the closet, she is the one person that should have stayed there,
Her visions for the show are having sex with all the models.

I used to like Rosie OK, around the time she did "A League of Their Own" (which I loved). But not lately. And any shred of liking I had for her was gone when I read her blog, which looks like it was written by a first grader, in crayon, and then transcribed verbatim.

How's this for a nightmare? Suppose the selection for a new host were down to two people. Rosie O'Donnel or Nancy Grace?
Crap, I was trying to scare others, but all I did was scare myself. GAAAAAH!

Her having sex with all the models wouldn't be changing the format... Bob's been known for that for years.

Oh geez, I did a post about stars hosting the Price is Right after Bob Barker finally exits. Don't tell me people are really serious about hosting this show?

Rosie would be a great host. She is wonderful in almost anything she does. She is outspoken, and cares for many causes. Some people seem either jealous, or just base their bashing on her politics.
GO RO !!!

I have never liked her. Her hosting a great show like 'The Price Is Right' would end that show forever.

My husband who is retired watches "The Price is Right" every day. I can guarantee that it would never be on again in our house if Rosie became the new host! She is obnoxious. Won't watch "The View" now that she is on either.

I loathe her.. dispise her and anything else that goes with it.. shes totally sickening to not just me but to everyone i know.. shes loud annoying not funny at all and lately all she does is flaunt her gayness all over the place.. WHO CARES ROSIE .. You big fat disgusting pig.. the only ones we feel sorry for are your children.. they have to be brought up by the likes of you.. you couldn*t just keep you mouth shut you had to flaunt it all over and now your kids will reap your stupidity... shame on you .. you should have stayed in the closet.. did you really think you did good by coming out..??? maybe for yourself but you really screwed it for you children.. shame on YOU>>>>>

The only thing that Rosie would do as a host is segue to how her kids knew the price of this and that or how her kids did this or that. I'm sooooooo sick of hearing about her family everyday on The View. The whole show has become rather self absorbed now that Rosie is on it.

"She is outspoken, and cares for many causes."
That's great. Except for one thing.
The Price Is Right is a game show. Not a political debate show. Which has been a problem Rosie has suffered from for quite some time. She doesn't entertain anymore. She preaches and she is incredibly obnoxious when someone doesn't agree with her.
I can just imagine her shouting down some contestant who makes the mistake of telling her he works at a gun store.
Fortunately, CBS heard the sound of the vacuum cleaner sucking away all of that advertising income if Rosie took the helm of an entertaining game show.

Isn't Dave Price, the Early Show weatherman, taking over hosting duties? Or is that just a rumor?
