ATTENTION A-listers: If Arsenio Hall has ever said anything to offend you, he wants you to know he’s really, REALLY sorry!
The 58-year-old funnyman is scrambling to make peace with old celebrity pals he dissed so they’ll appear on his new, nationally syndicated late-night talk show.
Nearly 20 years after he abandoned late night, the all new “Arsenio Hall Show” is getting set for a Sept. 9 debut.
During its original run, from 1989 to 1994, the wisecracking comedian, whose approving audiences gave him those trademark shouts of “Roo, roo, roo,” had no trouble booking A-list celebrities.
But today, numerous talk shows compete for stars and Arsenio knows he has to rebuild bridges he burned with celebs such as Madonna, Roseanne Barr, Spike Lee, La Toya Jackson and former BFF Eddie Murphy.
