Drew Carey and Craig Ferguson are showing that celebrities still have a sense of humor on April Fools day. As studio neighbors and longtime friends, a timely prank is not a long shot for the two successful hosts. On April 1st, Craig Ferguson will be handing out prizes and acting as host of The Price is Right, while Drew Carey will be acting as fill-in host of the Late Late Show.
Celebrities are often looked like as permanently serious, self-serving individuals. Carey and Ferguson avoid that label by putting on a show for their fans day in and day out. Carey will not only be doing this show swap for April Fools but will also be making his dancing debut on Dancing with the Stars this season.
