JULIE CHEN has gotten her wish.

Carrie Ann Inaba , one of the judges for Dancing with the Stars, has been named to replace Chen on The Talk on CBS, reported Variety.

Chen resigned from her hosting duties on the day-time gabfest after her husband, CBS executive Les Moonves, resigned under the cloud of sexual harassment allegations.

She actually mentioned Inaba as her choice to replace her when she announced she would be leaving the show. 

“Carrie Ann,” Chen said, “I don’t know, but in my opinion, you look awful good sitting in that chair my Asian sister. I’m just saying.”

In addition to her new role on The Talk, Inaba will continue to be a judge on DWTS, a position she has had since the show premiered in 2005, according to People. Both shows are taped in Los Angeles.
Prior to Dancing with the Stars, Chen appeared in the Fox series, In Living Color, as a Fly Girl dancer.

TGIF Feature: Bruno Mars - Finesse (Remix) with Cardi B

Cardi B and Bruno Mars

BRUNO MARS teams up with Cardi B to do a fantastic remix of Mars' "Finesse." 

Their different styles complement each other in a tribute to the 90s In Living Color. Her street rap added to his more stylistic singing, gave the song a brand new spin.

The Filipino/American R&B entertainer, who directed the remix, built a facsimile of the Living Color set and included his own set of "Fly Girls." The multi-cultural, interracial comedy skit show, created by Keenen Ivory Wayans, helped pave the way for minority performers in Hollywood. It introduced us to the Wayans family, Jennifer Lopez, Dancing With The Stars' Carrie Ann Inaba, comedian Jim Carrey and featured one of the first AAPI comedians on contemporary TV, Steven Park.

The original Fly Girls lineup was made up of Cari French, Deidre Lang, Lisa Marie Todd, Michelle Whitney-Morrison and longtime Dancing with the Stars judge Carrie Ann Inaba. Jennifer Lopez joined the show as a dancer in the third season.

Former The View panelist and actress Rosie Perez was the choreographer for the first four seasons.

Since being post a day ago, the video has become one of the hottest views online.
