Valerie Bertinelli Gets Her Own Talk Show - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

VALERIE Bertinelli's career resurrection is adding another chapter.

The ex- "One Day at a Time" star, who's out hawking her new autobiography, has signed a deal to develop a syndicated talk show.

"I've been talking to Paramount about doing my own talk show," Bertinelli says in the April issue of Ladies' Home Journal.

The "Paramount" Bertinelli refers to is actually CBS TV Distribution, which produces "Rachael Ray" and "Montel," among other talk shows.

Bertinelli, 47, is reaching a new generation as the spokeswoman for Jenny Craig, a gig that's thrust her back into the spotlight after a long quiet period.

She's also written her autobiography, "Losing It," about her TV star days, her marriage to rocker Eddie Van Halen (they're now divorced) and her weight struggles.

Bertinelli was tapped last fall to be Rachael Ray's first "Celebrity Content Buddy" on "Rachael Ray," a role in which she appears occasionally to chat with Ray about pop culture.

Bertinelli says her "Rachael Ray" appearances are actually an audition of sorts for the talk show.

" 'Rachael Ray' is a way of testing me out, to see if I'm comfortable with this format," she tells Ladies' Home Journal.

A spokesman for CBS TV Distribution confirmed Bertinelli's development deal.

Details on when the show might air, and its format, are sketchy at this point, since its in the early-discussion stages.

In addition to her Jenny Craig duties and her new book, Bertinelli will star in the upcoming Lifetime movie, "True Confessions of a Hollywood Starlet."
