That’s where Jennifer Lopez comes in.

At first, she was speculated to be the successor to Degeneres, then word spread that she was asking for too much in her contract making the deal a no-go. Either her demands weren’t that bad, or they just broke down and gave in because according to TMZ, she’s in like Flynn!

Grunge, again? Sounds nice, doesn’t it? Like a high school sweetheart calling you after years of separation. Except, when you start to spend time with that sweetheart, you realize the attraction you initially felt was a product of the circumstances, and although those memories will always have a special place, you’ve come to understand something: that special place is the past.
