Though insiders at, ahem, The Insider have been gabbing about it for the better part of the year, Lara Spencer's role as sole anchor of the tabloid show has been, nearly almost certainly definitely, been acknowledged by her employer CBS/Paramount. The two parties have inked a new deal, which has Spencer moving from NYC to LA for the fifth season's premiere, while one-time co-anchor Pat O'Brien, star of the most famous voicemail ever, who emerged from a second bout of alcohol rehab to play the role of special correspondent, alongside Victoria Recano and Steven Cojocaru, is officially pushed behind the scenes, where he can dial your voicemail box from the comfort of behind the curtain.

This is the first time either The Insider, or its parent Entertainment Tonight, have had a single host. (Both shows are exec produced by Linda Bell Blue.)

And when Spencer takes over as the show's solo lead, she'll also step onto a new set at the show's Los Angeles studio, which was crafted, supposedly, just for her.

"It’s an incredible show-stopping set that will set the bar for all other magazine shows,” says Dan Henry, executive in charge of production for The Insider and ET. “It’s going to be something to behold. There are lots of bells and whistles—lighting, displays—that will enhance the overall experience for the viewer.”

An overall experience, of course, which includes reporting Entertainment Tonight's lies.
