As you may recall, Giuliana Rancic found herself at the center of a heated controversy earlier this year after her joke about Zendaya Coleman’s hair landed the Fashion Police co-host in hot water.
Though Rancic apologized to Zendaya for the remark, the damage was done, and the show was quite literally never the same.
As a direct result of the dust-up between Rancic and Coleman, Kelly Osbourne quit Fashion Police, and Kathy Griffin followed soon after.
Earlier this week E! announced that comedian Margaret Cho will help round out the discussion panel next season, but it looks like the casting changes won’t end there.
“Executives and producers have been saying that they want another man besides Brad Goreski,” a production source tells Radar Online. “It would make for a more balanced cast.”
The insider claims that in addition to seeking more diversity, producers feel that Rancic is simply more likely to draw negative attention than attract ratings:
“Some people feel that Giuliana isn’t really bring anything unique to the show anymore,” the insider claims. “She is not really a fashionista, and doesn’t have a lot of credibility in the industry.”
The source adds bluntly, “Some people think Giuliana could lose the job that she is trying to hold on to.”
Sounds like it may be time for Giuliana to take a cue from one of the year’s biggest films and say, “F-ck the police!”
