Television anchorwoman Gayle King is in negotiations to re-sign with CBS for a reported $12 million salary – double what she is currently receiving to co-host CBS This Morning.
King, 64, was rumored to be on her way out the door when her contract expires later this year. But her explosive interview with troubled R&B singer R. Kelly elevated her stock considerably at the network.
King’s interview with Kelly was viewed by millions and provided a much-needed boost to the struggling morning show.
King is in talks with CBS News president Susan Zirinsky, according to Fox News.
Prior to her interview with Kelly, King was asked if she was staying with CBS. “Ooh, that’s a good question,” she told the Associated Press. “All I can say is I really love my job, and I think it’s kind of foolish to predict the future.”
King is perhaps best known as media mogul Oprah Winfrey’s best friend.

Yes! Gayle get them coins and a new wig please!
She didn’t do anything in that interview tho.. she just sat there. Where is Barbara Walters?

Girl, you and your wig better go get that money! It won’t make your homegirl jealous, but she’d be awfully proud of you.
Barbara Walters is almost 90 and allegedly battling dimentia ?
barbara woulda got in the azz.
Oh no! Sorry to hear that. I LOVED the way SNL imitated her over the years.
Yes!
Stop reading my mind!
Good so you can afford your own gatdamn vacations and not have to be on the yacht of pedophiles
Doesn’t she know that she can get a good wig made of human hair and have a realistic looking part?
I used to love watching her interviews as a kid. ?
Really? That’s sad. Dam
#dead
I ain’t gonna lie tho I was looking at that wig like oprah ain’t a good bestfriend because if she were my friend I’d tell her to drop that off at the goodwill…
Bwabwa Wawa!!! I swear they use to crack me up doing her!!!!
Wuteva Gayle
She already is a millionaire and walking around with a wig like THAT?
Lol
Her Oprah allowance has ran out ?? Harpo ain’t gonna be happy about this one
Take the first 300 for a good wig
Get money, Gail !!!!!!!! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/6ebd3743fe3c8d82fd4e8bca679a6797de0073171afd5032bac48a7d46a2a0bd.gif
TV “makes” hella bread. They afford it lol
I don’t care for this sloth looking heffa or her droopy eye BFF! ??????
Cute decollete. She deserves every penny, she is a professional and has been in the business for 30 years, what do her white male counterparts make?
I’m convinced her and Pam Oliver just don’t care about nice wigs and paying someone to install the sucka
I didn’t want to say it but I was certainly thinking it
??

Get them bags, Gayle. 64 y’all…THAT is 64.
Lmaooo….whhhhhyyyy
Hence why the treachous wench interviewed r Kelly…and Oprah went after M.J
G-sus….cdfuuu
Demonic friends
Thank you all my demonic friends. She is a good reporter but not that good.
I didn’t know she was 64…she looks sorta,kinna good for 64 in spite of the wig
She looks like somebody just chucked that wig at her DAFUG
12 millliiooonnn???????!!! Seems kinda low for her. Then you said that’s double what she was making? What are her coworkers making? I bet she’s still at the bottom of the totem pole, salary wise.
I just wondered the same thing.
Another person making money off of The R’s fame.
For the love of a new pair of boots, a bag, a bustier and some big girl panties can someone please tell me how talking on TV warrants a $12 million a year paycheck?
She looks like somebody just chucked that wig at her DAFUG

….and it stuck….
Stop letting those white beauticians touch ya’ head Gayle!
Wig you mean lol
They picked it out for her, bad idea!
Lawd, ur in my head. ?
RIGHT! A hot mess
hahahahhaha ALL SORTS OF WRONG
Damn 12 million, after all these years? Shyt Oprah could’ve gave her that lol. Gayle you’re a Capricorn, what’s going on with your hair piece hun?
Facts..I’m like ” oh so that’s why she did the interview” this opportunity was presented to her?? .her and oprah will sell black the community for two silver coins..#?
Yep. Everyone but him.
All that shucking and jiving got her a raise I see….
????
I can’t stand Gale or her girlfriend Oprah , two selfhating ass Puppets, where is the documentary on they good friend Harvey Weinstein …The Enemy with Black faces …Both are Gatekeepers …Stay Woke
I don’t know about doubling her salary. Gayle had one good interview, and it was Robert’s foolishness that made it epic. She has always been boring to me.
Bag secured. Now secure a new wig auntie Gayle ?
Let me help you out sis, Gayle is/will be boring. If she gets 12 million dollars she needs give half to R Kelly. He saved her career.
Gayle and I must have been adversaries in past lives lol. There is something about her I just don’t care for. However, I’m proud of her accomplishment in her career because where she sits Barbara Walters broke the mold. Females were frowned upon anchoring the news.
WOW!
Better yet, where is the documentary on Oprah and Gayle? I bet it’s a doozy too! One of these two seems to always be in the midst of the decline of several famous black entertainers.
12 million is actually the lower average but peanuts compared to her white female counterparts who do way less and would have fetched up to at 45 mil after that interview (I read Megyn Kelly making 18). Anyway I read somewhere Gayle making 20 million BUT I’ve also read she making 6 million somewhere else and 5 million on another site. Don’t nobody know how much that lady making lol.
That’s what I was saying earlier! That’s why I don’t get on the bandwagon of bashing how much bw make because you better believe it’s peanuts compared to her counterparts…
I would have thought 12 mil was her STARTING pay. Not what she’s just NOW making. Then again, like you, I don’t get in folks pockets like that. Hell, barely got pockets of my own.
Gayle look like Arsenio Hall in drag in that pic up top. All I got.
Damn ???
For real….Us Caps usually be on point with the clothes and hair…
As I said weeks ago that interview wasn’t because Gayle’s job was on the line…it made her more popular which gave her leverage to get a bigger contract…OAN: leave her Chewbacca wig alone with that money she can fly 6 Malaysian woman over here let them live in a nice place and just cut their hair for her wigs every 4 months…
Yet, Meghan Kelley had a 69M contract. #FOH
Nonetheless it’s a win
thats her reward for tearing down a black man…. can’t wait for her and her lover O, get their ninja wake up call.
R. Kelly should have charged her that much for that interview!
re: Chewbacca wig. She needs REAL friends to help her out.
I’m just glad she has opportunities to step out of Oprah’s shadow. People talk about them like they’re joined at the hip.
Imma find a way to monetize talking too!!

CBS should ask themselves how has the ratings changed since Gayle…was hired. CBS has been for the most part one of the lowest rated morning shows. If she has improved their numbers by 3 to 5 million per day since she started then they are justified in paying her. I really can’t watch it more than 2 min have never watched a whole segment.
Why is she 64 years old still trying to be in front of the camera. Shouldn’t they let younger person have that role? It seems like they only do that with black women.
Gayle & Oprah take their orders from David Geffen. They are also friends with Harvey Weinstein. They will never say or report anything negative regarding Weinstein.

why can’t she invest in a really good expensive all natural wig that compliments her face with all of her cash? why has her daughter not said something to her?
Have yall seen the SNL skit of that interview? LMMFAO….but it’s also creepy. With folks like R. Kelly and Trump, SNL no longer has to do parodies. I mean the interviews and press conferences LEGIT are like and SNL skit.
