Arsenio Hall Explains Why He Took ‘Star Search’ Gig

New ‘Star Search’ host Arsenio Hall tells Us Weekly why he took the job. “There’s nothing more incredible than a person with a dream, and the ability to give someone an opportunity. I’ll never forget the look on Mariah Carey’s face after she made her national TV debut on ‘The Arsenio Hall Show’.” As for his thoughts on the competing ‘American Idol’ show. “I was a huge Justin Guarini fan because I judge talent on their hair,” he joked. “I’m still bitter about Kelly winning.”
