Many have tried many have failed. Many thought about trying and weren't up for the work it would take. Many are still trying and determined and many are still planning to try. To millions, there will never be another Oprah Winfrey but that has not stopped TV producers and personalities from trying to take the title. Now there is a new candidate in the running and her name is Dana Owens -AKA- Queen Latifah. She has teamed up with Sony Pictures Television to produce a new talk show which will go into production in 2013.
Latifah and Will Smith — and Jada Pinkett Smith — will executive-produce the new talker, Sony said in its announcement — a complicated macedoine of names of companies owned by Latifah and Smith — and Jada Pinkett Smith, and names of suits working at those companies who have also laid claim to exec-producer credit on the new show. Latifah already had one at-bat hosting a talk show. But that one — “The Queen Latifah Show,” produced with Warner Bros.’ Telepictures — didn’t take, lasting just two seasons.[Washington Post]
