ARSENIO HALL MAKING A COMEBACK?

ARSENIO HALL may end up being the most successful “Celebrity Apprentice” winner yet. A source close to the Donald Trump-hosted reality contest tells us that Hall, who was the last man standing on Sunday’s finale, is talking to a number of TV networks about hosting a talk show again. The insider says NBC is jockeying to be the network that signs Hall and adds that Trump will “more than likely have some sort of producer credit” if the Peacock network closes the deal.

From 1989 to 1994, the 56-year-old comic hosted “The Arsenio Hall Show,” where he coined the eventually annoying “woo-woo-woo” cheer and had some memorable guests. Then-presidential candidate Bill Clinton played the Elvis Presley hit “Heartbreak Hotel” on his saxophone in 1992, and Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan stirred up controversy when Hall devoted an entire show to interviewing him in February 1994. “The Arsenio Hall Show” was canceled just a few months later.
