Internet came up with bizarre suggestions to replace Ellen instead of Corden

The 'Talk Show' world is proving to be much more scandalous than anyone can think of. According to a report by The Sun, James Corden might be in talks to replace Ellen DeGeneres in her famous talk show. James currently hosts 'The Late Late Show ' on CBS while Ellen hosts NBC's 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show'.

The possible shake-up comes shortly after toxic work environment claims were made against Ellen's show where several people from the crew and team of the show, came out and slammed the toxicity they faced. Read the entire controversy here. 

As the netizens got a hold of the news, some bizarre suggestions to replace Ellen instead of Coren in the show started flowing in. One user posted a list of 'potential' candidates to be the new host, "Because James Corden has been recommended to replace Ellen DeGeneres, I made a list of people who are more capable of taking that job. Enjoy".

The user listed Kate Millon Kate McKinnon, Ellen Page, Harry Styles, Keegal Michael Key, Lin Manuel Miranda, Barack Obama Eleanor Roosevelt and many other funny suggestions like 'the single piece of paper from that episode of The Office'. Soon more people started making a list of the host's replacement. Another Internet user commented, "add Dakota Johnson to the list pls."

One Twitter user said, "Replace Ellen with Liam Neeson and call the show L.N." to which many people replied. One of them said, "I would watch the hell out of Liam Neeson dancing and chatting with celebrities" and another posted, "He’s got a very particular set of interviewing skills".

Some even said that physician and activist Ellen Jill Stein can be the right choice. She is also a former presidential candidate

Going by the tweets, a lot of people suggested the 'Obamas' can actually be very good hosts. The former USA president and wife Michelle came in as one of the top suggestions, as many people said, that they would enjoy if 'Obamas' will host the show. One user said, "Michelle Obama would be fantastic!!" while another user said, "would watch The Obama Show".

While some connected the current situation of the 'Talkshow' with 'Doctor Who', as one of the users said, "It’s going to be like Doctor Who. Eventually, they’ll recast with a dude named Ellen and folks will be shit posting with the hashtag #NotMyEllen".
