Seriously? OMG! WTF?

Earlier this week, it was reported that Wheel of Fortune’s Jim Thornton was suspended pending an investigation into an incident that happened on a plane in May. However, it was not known what that incident was.

But then yesterday, TMZ reported that another passenger claimed that she saw him looking at a message board allegedly for pedophiles and took photos of him doing so.

And with that, we knew his time with the game show was short. Today, it was confirmed by Sony: “Following a thorough investigation, Jim Thornton’s employment with ‘Wheel of Fortune’ has been terminated, effective immediately.”

Variety added that inside sources told them that his voice will be replaced from the upcoming season which starts on September 14th.

You might not know Jim Thornton’s name, but you know his voice. That is because he has been the announcer on Wheel of Fortune since 2011.

That is in the past tense because TMZ is reporting that he has been suspended from the game show during an investigation of an alleged incident that involved him when he was on a plane back in May. A passenger is said to have complained about him, and he was greeted by law enforcement at the gate. No other details were shared about the reported incident.

During his suspension, Sony Pictures Television is looking for a temporary replacement. I think they should bring back Pat Sajak to do the job.

Ryan Seacrest is the hostest with the mostest. And that is a very good thing for him. Because without hosting and Kardashian money, he has nothing to fall back on.

How do we know that? We know that the American Idol host cannot sing. And now we know that the Wheel of Fortune wheel turner cannot turn his wheel, as in he cannot dance. If you put him on Dancing with the Stars, he would make Corey Feldman and Sean Spencer look like they could win the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy.

Maggie Sajak shared a video of her, Seacrest, and Vanna White dancing to alarm melodies, and what he did is a crime. Where is mean Simon Cowell when you need him?

So, Ryan, please stick to your lane; our eyes and ears beg this of you.

On a positive note, he has one more talent than the Kardashians. But then again, so do most of us.

Today is Vanna White’s, wait for it, 69th birthday! To celebrate everyone, but Ryan Seacrest, who works on Wheel of Fortune, put on blonde wigs in honor of the letter turner. And it is the best present she could get…love!

Now, let’s talk about her turning 69. If we hadn’t been watching her on the game show since 1982, I never would have believed it because she hasn’t aged a bit since then. Actually, she looks even better now! It could be because she is a new bride!

Before Vanna White graduated to Wheel of Fortune, she starred in Graduation Day. She was a great actress when she was 23 in that 1981 movie.
