Anna Faris Coming For Drew Barrymore & Kelly Clarkson’s Daytime Talk Show Crowns, 'Mom' Alum Is 'Mulling Over Options,' Says Source
Now that her Unqualified podcast is a certified hit, a source says Anna Faris would love to have her own TV chatfest.
OK! previously included Faris' successful podcast at the top of the list in an article titled "A Nifty Nine: The 9 Best Podcasts Hosted by Celebrities."
On her podcast home page, it reads, "join me on a mission to create a community where those of us who have no idea what the (expletive) we’re doing can find comfort, support and laughter."
Faris, who launched her weekly advice podcast in 2015, "is being very discreet about her ambitions, but she’s got big dreams and is mulling a move to host a daytime talk show," dishes the source.
While the actress, 44, has been quietly fielding offers from producers behind the scenes, "Anna isn’t quite ready to make the leap just yet, because she feels she’s still developing her interview skills," shares the source.
But the perky Mom alum is finding the idea increasingly tempting. "Everyone is telling Anna she has just as much talent and charisma as Drew Barrymore or Kelly Clarkson," the source adds.
"And with The Ellen DeGeneres Show ending next year, there’s not going to be a better moment for her to throw her hat in the ring. She should just go for it." We’d say she’s more than qualified!
Faris' potential chatfest wouldn't be the only new addition in her life — Faris just recently confirmed that she and now husband Michael Barrett recently eloped after meeting in 2017 and getting engaged in 2019.
Barrett is Faris' third husband — first she was married to Ben Indra before divorcing and marrying Chris Pratt in 2009. Pratt and Faris share one son, Jack Pratt, 8.
Maybe the new hubby will even encourage her to take the leap and finally come out with her own daytime talk show.
