If Whoopi Goldberg had it her way, she would give two consonants and buy a vowel to complete the word: job.
“The View” co-host revealed on Tuesday’s show that she would want to be the new host of “Wheel of Fortune” if given the opportunity.
The revelation came while Ken Jennings, a former game show contestant and now a show host of “Jeopardy!,” joined the daytime show to promote his new book.
“Whoopi wants the job,” Joy Behar stated.
“I want that job,” Goldberg bluntly said. “I think it would be lots of fun.”
Jennings quipped earlier, “Over 40 years, and the price of the vowel hasn’t gone up one penny. Nobody controls inflation like Pat Sajak.”
Goldberg agreed and said, “That’s right.”
Jennings previously joked that hopefully, the show has a plan for who will replace the iconic host Pat Sajak.
“Hopefully, ‘Wheel’ has got an envelope somewhere that says, ‘What to do when Pat packs it in.’”
Jennings had a unique perspective on being a game show host, as he is one.
