Snoop Dogg Wants to Be the Next Oprah

Oprah isn't planning on retiring until 2011 but celebrities are coming out of the woodwork ready to fill shoes that can possibly never be filled.

The front runner to fill in Oprah's slot so far is Ellen Degeneres, but other stars like Paula Abdul, Tyra and even Elisabeth Hasselbeck are in talks to replace the queen of talk shows.

But one star that thinks he can do a better job than all of those gals is rapper Snoop Dogg. He claims he is the ideal candidate to take over Oprah.

He said: “I’m trying to proposition the networks right now. If you’re wanting a nice, black, exciting young male who wants to turn the TV world right up – get at me.

“I heard Oprah Winfrey is leaving and there’s nobody who can do what Oprah did but, ahem – hello! Hello!”

Snoop would also make his talk show a family affair. He added: “I can bring my wife on so we can have the women and the men on there discussing things.”

Snoop as a talk show host? Maybe he should just stick to his day job. Who do you think would be the best candidate to replace Oprah?

His children, when I saw them on TV from a reality show he was doing, are awful...and that is what a Father deserves when HE fails to not know how to raise his children!!! They end up taking advantage of a wealthy father who fails to not know how to properly 'communicate' to them.

To bad Oprah wasn't quitting in 2010. Her show is old and not entertaining. She's so full of herself I'm surprised she's not heavier.

snoop would be great. it's time for oprah to make way for new blood. when are these african-americans going to start rebuilding the poor black communities some of them help tear up? this is what a good talk show host needs to do.
