Is E! Network really pushing Giuliana Rancic out of Fashion Police after hiring Margaret Cho? According to a tabloid report, the network is doing just that.
Radar Online quoted an “insider,” who claimed that executives at the network wanted to add another man to the cast and Rancic would be pushed out to make room for him.
“Some people feel that Giuliana isn’t really bring anything unique to the show anymore,” the insider told the site. “She is not really a fashionista, and doesn’t have a lot of credibility in the industry.”
However, a rep for the network told Star Pulse that this isn’t true. “Giuliana is a co-host and consulting producer on the series, and as our announcement stated last week, she will be returning in 2016,” the rep said.
Earlier this month, Cho joined Fashion Police full time. She will join Melissa Rivers, Rancic and Brad Goreski.
The show has gone through a rough patch following Joan River’s death. Both Kathy Griffin and Kelly Osbourne quit earlier this year after Rancic’s controversial joke about Disney star Zendaya’s hair.
Cho will make her debut as a fashion correspondent at the Golden Globes for E! News.
