"Give him/her a show!"
This person is one of the greatest I have seen. He is able to be a host of a show and control the situation without any effort. He should be the next host of the Price is Right!

The whole point of the dance off was to give him the crown......he didn't win it. His b*tchin won it, kelly won it, he started whining about it claiming she only won becuase she stars on an ABC soap, so they did a "re-match" to give him the crown.
