DREW CAREY

Dew Carey, New Host of PRICE!
Drew Carey announced that he will become the new host of the Emmy Award-winning CBS game show The Price is Right during tonight’s taping of the Late Show with David Letterman. Carey’s Late Show interview will be broadcast tonight, Monday, July 23 (11:35 PM-12:37 AM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

“I actually had lunch with an AP reporter today, we had a big, long lunch,” Carey said. “I couldn’t tell him anything because we were negotiating the deal. And they approached me right after the pilot for ‘Power of 10,’ and they called me, I said, ‘No.’ Then they called me a month later, they said, ‘What if we really’ – they called my agent: ‘What if we really go after Drew.’ This is like a month later after I did the pilot for Power of 10 and I said, ‘Well, what does that mean?’ and he said, ‘Well, you know, I mean, maybe this kind of money.’ I go, ‘What kind of schedule?’ He said, ‘I don’t know,’ so I met with them and stuff and we’ve been negotiating ever since. Couldn’t say anything, but during your Harry Potter bit – honestly it was like 15 minutes ago – they called me. It’s a done deal. I’m the new host of The Price Is Right.”

With the audience wildly applauding, Paul Shaffer and the CBS Orchestra played the theme to The Price Is Right in honor of Carey’s announcement.

Letterman offered Carey his congratulations. Carey said that he’s not sure when he’s going to start working on The Price Is Right, but did say that already “my girlfriend was on the phone with a personal shopper from Bergdorf’s.”

“Well, history says that this will be a nice long career for you as the host of The Price is Right, Letterman commented. Carey said, “It’s fun doing a show for years and years, isn’t it?” and Letterman concurred.

I don't see it.

The Price is Right has to have a true ladies' man as a host. Someone who at least portrays the image that he can get some from any woman anytime he wants.

Big time game show host is a sweet deal. I'm not sure if The Price (as I like to call it) is the same, but many of them tape lots of shows the same day, so you end up working like 3 months out of the year for a ton of dough.

BTW, Carey was known for having a penchant for strip clubs. He might be more similar to Bob Barker than you think.

I watch The Price is Right every chance I get and I don't like this pick at all. Can you see both young and old women falling over themselves to give Drew Carey a kiss on the cheek? Give me a break. This sucks!

I personally don't like Drew Carey so I probably won't be watching the show. Then again, I haven't watched the show in forever.

My vote would've been for Senator Obama for the host.
