“Let me just say this,” answers Chen Moonves when asked about her hosting future.
“Bob Barker hostedThe Price Is Rightfor 35 years, so get that skinny microphone ready!”
So how long does she foresee herself staying in the gig?
“As long as I can form a sentence.
I feel like it’s my baby, and I can’t imagine ever not doing it.
I can’t imagine the show existing and me not being part of it.
So as long as it’s on the air, I’d love to continue doing it.”
“I was dreadful, just terrible,” she says of her foray into acting.
“Hats off to actors.
That’s a hard job, acting natural in an unnatural setting.”
“I love watching it,” she says.
“I love being a participant, but I love also being a viewer.
I have a vested interest in this.
I’m like, ‘She did what?’
And it’s a parenting tool too.
I show my 11-year-old son.
I’m like, ‘See, you cannot behave that way.
You will not get away with that behavior.
Not in this house.
No, no, no.
Don’t be that guy.'”
