The New York Post reports George Clooney’s current squeeze Stacy Keibler is in talks to join the show.

Says a source of the former wrestling star and Dancing with the Stars contestant, “her lack of experience in the music business may make her more appropriate as a host.  She looks fantastic and has bags of charisma.”

The unnamed source also weighed in on Spears’ negotiations, saying, “Talks are still ongoing with Britney, and she is asking for a lot more money, than was originally offered.  But producers are confident Britney will realize this is a great opportunity for her to reinvent herself and accept their deal.”
