Where is Jerry Springer heading off to?

America’s favorite day-time talk show host, Jerry Springer is taking a break from his show and quit his job as host of the hit U.S. TV show, America’s Got Talent and heading the to UK. Yes, that’s the United Kingdom, where he will be starring in London’s West End production of Chicago, playing lawyer, Billy Flynn. This will be a limited engagement of six weeks for the TV host, but Springer says that he welcomes the challenge. He has started taking singing lessons to prepare for his stage debut in June.

“You don’t need a Pavarotti for that role. I think I can carry a tune. I’m going to try to respect the traditions of the theatre and of the show. I’m going to work hard at it, I’m going to really rehearse and give it my best.”

This should be interesting to see Jerry Springer singing and dancing on the London West End stage, we will wait and see what the critics say about his performance.
