Blind Item #2

This former B list celebrity/host who had an A list catch phrase that people still use when they talk about his most famous show is now a guy who will support any cause, no matter how controversial as long as the check is large enough. For a six figure fee he will make a video and tell the world how great something is. These are not products, but causes and ideas. He will literally say anything you want him to. If you want him to use his catchphrase, it's extra.

  2. Dave Coulier "cut it out"
    he also hosted American Funniest videos at one point

  3. I really must stop wasting brain cells on things like "Arsenio Hall can't possibly be B list, can he?" when the alphabet ratings are meaningless.
    Good talk, self!

    1. Yup... And this is just what actors do. Movies are product, but also they spread stories and messages. This guy is just a little more interested in the bottom line.

  14. Did Jimmie Walker ever host anything? I remember seeing him on a talk show once and he refused to say "dy-no-mite!" because he wasn't getting paid to.

  15. I thought arsenio and the let's get busy, but I haven't seen him pitching any causes, has anyone else?

    1. @Topper - what I came here to say! My first thought was Chuck Woolery. Think he charges more to make the hand motion in addition to saying the words?

  21. Aresenio..."Things that make you go Hmmmm..." Hall.

    And guess what folks, Dr's do this all the time..THAT is much more frightening and disturbing to me. "Trust Us We're Experts" is an eye opening book.

    For some reason Emeril BAM Lagasse popped in my head, but he wouldn't be considered a host.

    ReplyDelete
  23. @Derek No he didn't. That was Bob Saget that hosted American's Funniest Home Videos.

  24. The guy who yells "Let's GET READY TO RUMBLEEEEEE"

  25. Sugarbread has me laughing so hard... Read Bob Barker, first thought was "have your pets spayed or neutered"??

    ReplyDelete
  26. @jayjay---yes he did. Briefly. For a season or 2. Maybe it was a spin-off but same show-producers etc.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Deal...or no deal? Howie Mandel

    ReplyDelete
  28. I think it's Arsenio but Dave Coulier did host that horrible AFV spin off "America's Funniest People". He hosted with Arleen Sorkin or something like that. It was awful. At the end they always used say "No Funny, No Money".

  29. i agree with emril lagasse. BAM!

  33. Glenn Beck

    It's not so much a "catchphrase" as he just cries.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Henry Pollard, catering host. Catchphrase: "Are we having fun yet?"

    ReplyDelete
  35. I've never heard of half of these catch phrases.

  36. I'm guessing it's not Robin Leach ("champagne wishes and caviar dreams").

  37. Larry the Cable guy....Get 'er done!

    1. Jeff Foxworthy's catchphrases are "You might be a redneck if....." & "Are you smarter than a 5th grader?"

      It is Bill Engvall who says, "Here's your sign!"
