'Dancing' into a Talk Show?

Marissa Jaret Winokur is rumored to be trading in her dancing shoes for a seat on the small screen. The New York Post reports that the Tony-winning actress has nabbed a deal to host a talk show. Winokur, a favorite on this season's "Dancing with the Stars," has gained popularity for her winning smile and big personality. Call it the Tracy Turnblad gift -- the same role that made Winokur a star on Broadway is also the one that catapulted Ricki Lake into notoriety in John Waters' hit "Hairspray." Lake went on to host her daytime talk show for eleven years! (link)
