Jenny McCarthy is Oprah's new muse.
The funny lady, known in my generation for hosting MTV's "Singled Out" back in the day, has inked a multi-platform deal with the Queen of All (Media), Oprah.
The deal, which included a Friday launch of McCarthy's blog on Oprah.com, will include the development of a new talk show. Like Dr. Phil, Rachael Ray and Dr. Oz before her, expect to see lots and lots of Jenny on Oprah's show prior to the launch of her new show.
By the by, if "Singled Out" doesn't ring a bell, you may remember McCarthy from her Playboy Playmate pics, roles in gross-out comedy movies or as the girlfriend of movie star Jim Carrey.
She's also been a best-selling author who has chronicled her life as the mother of an autistic child.
McCarthy's blog can be found here. Her latest entries are all about her struggle to give up sugar.
