American actress and former Playboy model Jenny McCarthy may replace Oprah Winfrey after her popular talk-show goes off air at the end of its 25th season in 2011. According to reports, McCarthy has made a development deal with Winfrey’s Harpo Productions.
“We do not have anyone taking over for Oprah,” the New York Post quoted a Harpo spokeswoman. “We do have a development deal with Jenny McCarthy. We are exploring possibilities across a number of platforms,” she added.
Oprah is launching her own network and might want McCarthy’s talk show on her schedule.
