How do you become a famous television talk show host?

Good for you! That sounds like a great plan and a lot of fun as well! Get your degree and try to intern on a talk show, news show, anything in television. There you will meet alot of contacts who can possibly be of help to you in your career goals down the road. Best of luck! So nice to see someone young with such excellent career goals!

I would say that you have to be personable, have a trademark something like Ellen dances, Jay Leno's chin, Oprah's weight. This keeps them in the limelight. I don't think you have to be beautiful or handsome because I do not think that Leno or Letterman are attractive at all. Its more of an inner light. You need to have that glow. You need to have confidence and make people want to listen to what you have to say. I say follow your dream. You are young and have plenty of time to make it come true!

You need to be gay, black or a person with no morals whatsoever.
