‘Wheel of Fortune’ Bosses Want to ‘Lock’ in Host Ryan Seacrest, Salary Trouble Brewing for Vanna White
Ryan Seacrest won over Wheel of Fortune viewers and bosses are looking to 'lock' him in, further dwarfing Vanna White's pay, a source exclusively tells Closer.
Ryan Seacrest continues to kill it in the ratings for Wheel of Fortune, as a set source exclusively reveals to Closer how show honchos are desperate to tie him to a new mega deal that will see him locked in for another five years – further dwarfing Vanna White ’s way-lower salary, even if it puts her nose out of joint. “Ryan has more than proven himself as a worthy successor to Pat [Sajak] and more importantly, as somebody who can bring new fans into the Wheel franchise,” the insider explains of the notorious TV and radio host. The source reveals that Vanna “is not a part of Ryan’s renegotiation at all” and negotiated her current deal “around the same time Pat decided to step down from the syndicated version of the show.”
