Last year there were rumors that Steve Harvey's talk show was being replaced in NBC's top rated markets with a talk show hosted by American Idol winner Kelly Clarkson [click here if you missed that].
Steve admits he had no idea they were planning to drop him...
In an interview at the Variety Entertainment Summit this week Steve was asked if he was staying with NBC and this was his response,
“I thought I was, until they made an announcement a couple weeks ago that they wanted to give Kelly Clarkson the owned-and-operated NBC networks -- that’s my slot. I don't know if it sold, it's not selling like they thought, but I thought it would have been nice of them to come to me -- as the only dude who’s survived [in daytime TV] for seven years -- about it."
“So when you do that, I gotta make announcements too ... I'm working. It will be something real cute.”
