Drew Carey | Born 1958

After Bob Barker retired, the talented host who replaced him on The Price is Right is Drew Carey. The comedian may have taken on the job, but stressed that he couldn’t replace someone like Barker. Not only is the latter a legendary host, but he’s one of a kind that nobody can replace him. Carey didn’t even want to compare himself to anybody and only did what he’s supposed to do.


Aside from hosting, Carey is also known as a comedian and actor. He made a name for himself in the world of stand-up comedy and gained recognition through his sitcom, The Drew Carey Show. From there, he received credit for doing TV series, music videos, and made-for-TV films. A little fun fact: Carey briefly joined professional wrestling and became a part of the 2001 Royal Rumble. He was even inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2011.
