| Ebony Steele |
That distinctively sexy and raspy voice has been silenced on
the “Rickey Smiley Morning Show” permanently, according to the Atlanta Daily World.
Ebony Steele, cohost beside Rickey Smiley
Show for the past seven years, reporedly is leavin to start her own business. She is going to reportedly be
replaced by former model and current actress Claudia Jordan.
Fans of Steele have noticed that she had been conspicuously
absent from the show as well as “Dish Nation” without any explanation. Steele,
whose irresistible estrogen energy provided balance to the testosterone-heavy
morning show, was not provided a reason why she was abruptly axed from the
show.
The timing of her departure is extremely curious: the “Rickey Smiley Show” is syndicated in 50 markets
nationwide and is the No. 1 urban-based show in the city of Atlanta,
outperforming its rivals, including the “Ryan Cameron Morning Show,” the “Tom
Joyner Morning Show” and the “Steve Harvey Morning Show” in the prime viewing
demo advertisers crave.
Furthermore, it is the No. 2 show in the coveted 18-34
demographic in Atlanta, trailing only another Atlanta-based syndicated show,
Q100′s Bert Show.
