It’s official, Cedric The Entertainer is going to take over Meredith Vieira’s spot as host for the syndicated version of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire. It was previously reported that he was only going to make just barely over a million dollars for the gig, but that turned out to be a big fat rumor. He’s going to be making somewhere close to what Meredith was making in her final years as host. So it’s official, game shows are where comedians go to die. At least they’ll die rich! 

About

Although comedy is her profession, Nadine has accomplished a lot in her young age. She is a national champion black belt, a world-class soccer player, and an avid snowboarder. She started playing soccer at the age of 4, and continued playing through college where she majored in Biology, but quickly realized her destiny was to tell jokes, not to wear a lab coat. So she decided to be funny while finishing her Bachelors Degree in biology and continued on to get her M.B.A. Nadine’s comedy style is much like her athleticism, fearless. She’s made her way up the comedy ladder very quickly, and has become a club favorite at many of the country’s top comedy clubs, including the Improv chain. Performing in the Boston Comedy Festival and being noted as the “one of the youngest and brightest up and comers” and traveling to the Middle East to entertain the troops are just a few of her notable accomplishments. These days Nadine splits time between the stage, a radio studio, her computer blogging, and a television studio. Nadine’s TV, Radio, Writing credits include: national commercials, talking head roles on E! Entertainment, Showtime’s Hot Tamales Live, The Skinny: Fat Free News, The Sunny Side of The Truth: Real World Hollywood, TVgasm, Zazreport, Daddy’s Girls, Jerseylicious, celebrity interviews on Mania TV, a weekly half-hour television show that syndicates to colleges across the country for National Lampoon and a nightly radio show on XM Satellite Radio.

    He hosted another short-lived game show, “That Costs What?!” or something like that. I’m happy for him. Actually, I’m indifferent. But I wanted to put a post on the second cedric article in a week. I don’t which has become more irrelevant, Cedric or game shows.

    I do think he should go on tour soon. Not with Steve harvey, though. He’s played out. And on a game show!

    Steve Harvey’s not completely played out. He has a talk show. But it’s only worth watching when he has a diet expert on, showing people healthy versions of favorite foods. He has no problem calling the food nasty to the person’s face.

    You can have a talk show and still be played out. Bethenny, anyone?

    When I say played out, the thought of Steve Harvey stand up just doesn’t excite me. Cedric would still get me willing to tune in to his stand up but he has to align with younger cats like Kevin Hart.
