Michelle Obama could become a talk show host if Barack Obama loses the election

If President Barack Obama will be out of a job in 48 hours, First Lady Michelle Obama could step into a new career as a chat show host.

TV executives believe Michelle Obama would be a natural to become a talk show host.

Michelle Obama has even been compared to Oprah Winfrey, the queen of chat show hosts and one of the most recognizable names in show business.

“Personally I would like to see her in the White House,” said Hilary Estey McLoughlin., president of syndication company behind the Ellen DeGeneres show.

“But if she were not going to be in the White House, I’d love to see her as the host of a show. She’s amazing.”

And former CNN president Jon Klein agreed that Michelle Obama would be snapped up by TV chiefs if her husband does not win a second term in office.

“Daytime syndicators are desperate for a new voice and she is tailor made for it,” he told TV Guide magazine.

“She’s thoughtful. She’s committed. She’s a working mom. She’d be a strong voice on issues important to her.”

Since moving into the White House Michelle Obama has been one of the most visible of First Ladies with more TV appearances than any other.

Michelle Obama has regularly appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

Even The View has been graced by Michelle Obama while her appearance on the Dr. Oz show helped her promote her campaign for healthy eating.

Michelle Obama became the first president’s wife to appear on a reality show when she took part in the Iron Chef series with ingredients from the White House garden being used in food preparation.

Hilary Estey McLoughlin, whose Telepictures Productions syndicates the Ellen DeGeneres show, even talks about Michelle Obama as someone to take over Oprah Winfrey’s crown as chat show queen.

“She reminds me of Oprah Winfrey as someone who has the ability to make people understand complex things in a simple way.”
