Marissa Jaret Winokur, one of the remaining contestants on Dancing with the Stars, has just signed a deal with Sony pictures to host her own personal talk show (premiering on Fall 09). Marissa,
who won a Tony Award for her role as Tracy Turnblad on Broadway, is the second contestant to have a talk show offer after starring on DWTS (Marie Osmond has also signed a deal for a talk show of her own). Interestingly, Sony also produced another daytime talk show featuring an actress who starred as Tracy Turnblad – Ricki Lake.
