‘The Voice’ is gearing up for a lively return, and NBC just dropped an early peek at what’s coming in Season 28. The exclusive first-look video was released on the show’s official YouTube channel on September 4.

The one-minute trailer shows that not only are the coaches back in their iconic red chairs, but they’re also bringing more personality, playful antics, and fresh energy than ever before. This season’s coaching lineup features music icons from across genres: Michael Bublé, Reba McEntire, Niall Horan, and Snoop Dogg. While fans already know the competition gets heated when four superstars fight for the best voices, the clip also shows how the coaches have their share of fun behind the scenes.

Snoop Dogg, who is making his second appearance as a coach, leaned straight into his signature lyrical style while vying for a contestant. Rather than giving a straightforward pitch, the rapper freestyled his way into persuasion. “It took me all this time to get real—only you can seal the deal based off of the way that you feel,” he told a hopeful, earning laughs from the crowd. At 53, the hip-hop legend seems to be as sharp and entertaining as ever, showing that his chair-turns will be anything but predictable. Country superstar Reba McEntire, back for her fourth season, came fully prepared with props.

In a hilarious twist, she handed out folding fans printed with her own face to the studio audience. When she found herself fighting for a contestant, she turned to her new army of “fans” for help. “Fans, who should they go with?” she asked, as the crowd waved their Reba-themed fans in unison.

It was a lighthearted moment that showed exactly why viewers adore McEntire: she knows how to play the game with humor and heart. Two-time winning coach Niall Horan also brought back his trademark charm. The 31-year-old ‘Heaven’ singer complimented a contestant on her song choice, only for her to take things in a very unexpected direction.

As quoted by People, “I love you! I know where you have birthmarks,” the contestant exclaimed, leaving Horan wide-eyed and speechless. The moment sparked laughter from the other coaches and reminded fans why Horan has quickly become one of the show’s most entertaining personalities.

Michael Bublé, who is fresh off back-to-back wins in Seasons 26 and 27, once again proved that his playful spirit is alive and well. In one scene, he decided to enforce some tongue-in-cheek discipline. “When somebody’s a bad boy, we put them in the penalty box. Now you get two minutes for looking too good,” the 49-year-old singer joked as he boxed in Horan’s chair, much to the delight of the audience.

As if the coaches’ antics weren’t enough, ‘The Voice’ Season 28 is introducing a brand-new feature called the Carson Callback. Longtime host Carson Daly explained the addition in the sneak peek, saying, “Sometimes I see great singers fall through the cracks and I’ve never been able to do anything about it until right now.” While details are still under wraps, it appears Daly will now have the power to bring back overlooked talent. It’s a move that could shake up the competition in exciting ways. Fans won’t have to wait long to see the drama unfold. ‘The Voice’ Season 28 premieres on Monday, September 22, on NBC. New episodes will air twice a week, Mondays and Tuesdays, at 8 pm ET. Judging from the first-look clip, ‘The Voice’ Season 28 isn’t just back; it’s better than ever.

Inside Kelly Clarkson’s biggest feuds including ‘drama’ with The Voice co-star Blake Shelton and Carrie Underwood

KELLY Clarkson has made enemies out of former lovers, co-workers, and peers, but she never backs away from a fight.

Kelly’s current battle is with her ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock, whom she slammed in an upcoming new song.

Earlier this week, The Voice judge posted a short snippet of the track to her social media accounts.

The song, titled Mine, appears to be the first single from her upcoming Chemistry album.

The 40-year-old shared a black-and-white clip from her recording session for the song.

Kelly was standing in front of a microphone in a studio, as she sang a capella.

“Someone’s gonna show you how a heart can be used like you did mine,” she crooned.

Last month, Kelly promised to expose the “ugly” and “sad” details about her marriage with ex-husband Brandon in her upcoming album.

But that’s not her only beef.

CARRIE UNDERWOOD

Just like Kelly, Carrie Underwood rose to fame after competing on American Idol.

Over the years, Carrie and Kelly have been pitted against each other several times and many outlets have claimed that this has caused a feud between them.

The rumors date back to 2016 when an alleged source told RadarOnline.com that Carrie “threw a fit” after Kelly was asked to perform a solo on American Idol over her.

At the time, the alleged source said, “Carrie caused serious drama with the final production of the show because she flipped out that she was stuck doing a duet [with Keith Urban] when she has a tour and so many things to promote right now.”

A year later, another source claimed that Carrie was upset that Kelly was picked to be a coach on The Voice.

“Carrie was jealous Kelly got a coaching gig on The Voice that she thought should’ve been hers,” the source said.

The insider then added, “And Kelly’s always been jealous that Carrie’s the bestselling idol to come out of Idol.”

At first, Carrie and Kelly ignored the feud rumors but in 2018, the Since U Been Gone singer finally put them to rest by taking a picture with Carrie on the red carpet of the Radio Disney Music Awards.

CLIVE DAVIS

Kelly’s complaints with music legend Clive Davis date back to 2004, when the two clashed over the direction of her music.

The blow-up apparently came down to a reaction over one of Kelly’s biggest hits, Because of You.

“I was told that was a s**tty song because it didn’t rhyme,” she recalled in 2017.

“A group of men thought it was OK to sit around a young woman and bully her. I was told I should shut up and sing.”

In his 2013 memoir, Clyde, 91, bashed Kelly, saying she was not capable of co-writing any hit songs.

He claimed she also burst into “hysterical sobbing” while the two battled over her second album.

But Kelly clapped back in a blog post.

“I refuse to be bullied and I just have to clear up his memory lapses and misinformation for myself and for my fans. It feels like a violation,” she penned. “Growing up is awesome because you learn you don’t have to cower to anyone – even Clive Davis.”

AVRIL LAVIGNE

Kelly once cryptically told Howard Stern: “I got elbowed in the face by someone I was giving an award to at the VMAs.”

After some goading, Kelly admitted the winner who became a loser was Avril Lavigne.

In videos from the event,  Avril seemed to violently shove Kelly aside with her elbow after the Stronger singer presented her with the Moon Man trophy.

Kelly, who had gone in to hug her musical colleague, instead slinked away with a befuddled look on her face.

“It was [Avril],” Kelly confessed to the shock jock. “But I will say this: Years later I saw her and she said, ‘Oh my gosh, people keep saying I elbowed you in the face and I’m so sorry!’

“And I don’t know… she did it… but I don’t know if she felt bad about it, or she didn’t mean to do it, or what… but it felt purposeful!”

JENNIFER HUDSON

Jennifer Hudson and Kelly were featured on the judges’ panel for season 15 of The Voice.

The two are both alums of American Idol, and each has her own competing talk show.

So unspoken jealousy should come as no surprise.

But Kelly tried to downplay any displeasure in an interview with Variety.

“I don’t like how people pit us against each other,” she told the outlet.

“I want to be sure that everyone knows that we are supportive of each other.

“We are all so different, and daytime is an amazing platform for all of us to bring something positive into the world.”

CHANCE THE RAPPER

Kelly and her The Voice coach competitor Chance The Rapper nearly came to blows over a talented contestant on a recent episode.

During the third chapter of the battle rounds, Team Kelly’s D. Smooth and ALI mesmerized the coaches by singing a soulful rendition of “Unaware” by Allen Stone.

Ali was declared the victor of the match by Kelly, but before D. Smooth could leave, Chance used his steal button to add the 25-year-old to his squad.

To prevent his steal and send D. Smooth to the playoffs, Kelly used a trick up her sleeve and activated her playoff pass button.

“I kind of feel bad ‘cause you might want to work with him, but I just don’t care,” Kelly sternly told Chance.

She then praised D. Smooth, and gushed that he has “a gift to make it all the way to the finale.”

BLAKE SHELTON

Kelly and veteran coach Blake Shelton have a longtime on-screen and off-screen feud.

Blake even tweeted a compilation of the two shading one another and wrote: “@KellyClarkson will always be my biggest rival.”

But the playful banter in front of the camera could hide deeper resentment behind it.

“Kelly and Blake’s relationship off-camera is even worse than it is on-camera,” an insider told RadarOnline.com. “They are like brother and sister. They fight, scream at each other and then they get over it.”

“They are together like every day now and it’s gotten to the point where she just walks away because she can’t win an argument with Blake. No one can because he is always right,” the insider revealed.

“Blake went off on her over how much money she is getting paid and how unfair it is,” the source said. “They fight over stupid things, like the size of a dressing room.”

Fans have taken to Twitter to slam the bickering between the two, with one fan writing: “Could you and Kelly back off the arguments..its getting old and is not funny.”

“The back and forth jokes with Blake and Kelly are getting old,” another fan wrote.

The Voice’s Chance the Rapper reveals secret ‘no one knows’ about the show as he admits he’s ‘leaking info’ on Today

THE Voice’s newest coach, Chance the Rapper, has revealed a secret about the reality singing competition in an interview on the Today show.

During a recent broadcast, Chance divulged something “no one knows” about the chairs that The Voice coaches sit on in the show.

Before the season 23 premiere of The Voice on Monday night, the Grammy-winning entertainer sat down with Today stars Savannah Guthrie and Carson Daly – Carson also hosts The Voice.

Savannah, 51, asked Chance, 29, about the “climate control” settings on The Voice chairs since she “heard” about them.

“I heard something about the climate control on the chairs…and even Carson, who never gets to sit in those chairs.

“Tell us about the secret of the chairs,” she told Chance.

Taking credit for exposing the chair controls, Chance owned up to being the “leak” who “dropped the info.”

“Basically…the famous red-spinning chairs on the show, a lot of people don’t know this, there is a heating setting underneath it to get yourself warm and a cool setting too,” Chance explained.

Savannah was expressing her enthusiasm to learn about the magic of the seats before her 49-year-old co-host interrupted her to reveal his theory behind the chairs.

“I think that’s because of Blake Shelton; he is so old now [so] he needs temperature control,” Carson joked.

The 46-year-old country star has been a coach on The Voice since 2011.

Blake recently announced that he would no longer be a coach on the show after this upcoming season.

REASON FOR LEAVING

He recently revealed the real reason he’s stepping away from the show in an interview.

During an appearance on Today, he confessed that he had contemplated leaving the show for a few years.

The Oklahoma native noted, however, that he was concerned about leaving “everybody in a bind,” so he stayed.

“I think I was close to calling it a day right when Covid hit,” he told host Carson Daly, 49, on the show.

“And then, because of Covid, I didn’t want to walk away from the show and leave everybody in a bind.

“I mean, this show changed my life. I’ll stay here until the world kind of gets back to normal again.”

Blake also opened up to Carson about how the show changed his life.

He shared: “I met my wife [Gwen Stefani] on this show.”

“It’s changed my life in every way it possibly can, from a personal standpoint.”

NEWCOMER(S)

While Blake is no stranger to The Voice’s judging table, they are joined by newcomers Chance and Niall Horan, 29.

Chance told NBC Insider: “I wanted to be a Coach on The Voice because I like giving platforms to young artists — especially people who are already seasoned in their trade and know what they’re doing but just need the right spotlight.

“I wanted to be a part of the process.

“I think my biggest competition amongst the coaches is probably Kelly ’cause she’s a seasoned vet.

“She’s won a bunch of times and people just gravitate towards her ‘cause they know she’s been in a competition. She’s mega-famous.”

Similar to Chance, Niall thinks Kelly is his biggest competition as well.

The One Direction alum commented: “My biggest competition this year is definitely Kelly.

“We have very similar tastes in music and the same kind of taste in voices.

“Yeah, I think she’s going to be a massive threat to me. But you never know, I could win the thing.”

The Voice fans worried over Kelly Clarkson’s ‘drunk behavior’ on set as ex ‘demands $5.2 MILLION a year in support’

FANS of The Voice worried over Kelly Clarkson’s “drunk behavior” on set of the NBC show.

The latest episode of The Voice aired as her ex-husband Brandon Blackstock “demands $5.2 MILLION a year in support.”

Monday’s episode of the competition show followed the contestants from each team singing solo performances.

Fans noticed that Kelly seemed especially loud and questioned if she was drunk while enthusiastically giving her feedback following the musical numbers.

Two fans noticed her strange behavior, as they both asked: “Is Kelly drunk?”

A following The Voice fan wrote: “I don’t remember Kelly ever screaming this much. Has she always screamed this much?”

One fan wrote of the 38-year-old mentor: “Has Kelly been drinking from Blake’s cup?”

Speaking of fellow judge Blake Shelton, the same Twitter user continued in a second tweet: “Blake really needs to offer Kelly points on how to be quietly, humorously tipsy during the show. Cause she’s just being that loud, sloppy girl who screams “PLAY FREEBIRD!” whenever anybody walks up to the jukebox in the bar.”

An additional person commented on her behavior and blamed Blake, writing: “@blakesheltonI blame you for Kelly’s outlandish behavior tonight! Did you spike her black @YETICoolers? Lol. She’s SO LOUD tonight.”

The episode aired just hours after it was reported Kelly’s ex-husband Brandon, 43, “demanded $5.2 MILLION a year in spousal support” as the singer called his request “unreasonable.”

His demands came after Kelly won temporary primary custody of the two kids she shares with the talent manager.

A source close to the former couple told PEOPLE that Brandon is seeking $436,000 in monthly spousal and child support.

The source said: “Brandon’s been equally unreasonable in his requests for child and spousal support, as well as attorney fees.

“Kelly’s offered to pay for all the kids’ expenses, but Brandon seems to think he is entitled to and needs $301K in spousal support and $135K in child support per month.”

The new update in their divorce proceeding comes after the singer won custody of their two kids: River Rose, 6, and Remington Alexander, 4.

A court document read: “The Court finds that under the circumstances present in this case, the interest in providing stability and continuity for the minor children weighs in favor of Petitioner having primary custody.”

The doc also noted that “the level of conflict between the parents has increased. The parties have a difficult time co-parenting due to issues of trust between them.”

A Day in the Life of a ‘Price Is Right’ Model

‘Price Is Right’ model Rachel Reynolds — who joined the game show in 2003 — breaks down her typical day on set: ‘It’s not your regular nine-to-five job’

Having joined The Price Is Right as a model in 2003, Rachel Reynolds can’t believe how quickly time has passed.

“It’s like a child,” Reynolds told PEOPLE in 2021, ahead of the game show’s 50th season. “You blink, and then they’re grown up. I feel the same way for being on this show for going on 19 years. It just flew by!”

With nearly two decades and counting of The Price is Right under her belt, Reynolds — one of the show’s longest-running models — said that her job “never gets old,” adding that one of the best parts is giving out prizes to unsuspecting contestants.

“I still feel their excitement,” said Reynolds. “Every day is different. Even though it’s the same game show, and we play tons of different games, it doesn’t matter. We have new contestants, different personalities. So, it’s the last thing from being boring at all. It’s not your regular nine-to-five job, as everyone knows.”

Bob Barker hosted the show for 35 years before his retirement in 2007. Since then, Drew Carey has been at the helm.

Reynolds added that fashion is another fun perk of the job.

“I come into work with no makeup, wet hair, and I can come in joggers and in my tennis shoes,” she said.

The longtime model continued, “I have the best hair and makeup, then they’ll give me 30 to 40 different dresses or outfits, options to wear. I love it all. And I’m so, so fortunate!”

The Price Is Right airs weekdays (11 a.m. ET) on CBS.

Why Clock Game Keeps Falling Flat in the Drew Carey Era of The Price Is Right

For longtime fans of The Price Is Right, the Clock Game has always been a thrilling test of speed, strategy, and nerves. But lately, viewers are growing increasingly frustrated with how the game plays out—especially under Drew Carey’s hosting.

Another recent episode featured what many fans are calling a “dismal” and “pathetic” attempt at Clock Game, reigniting debate over whether the segment has lost its spark.

The Clock Game, introduced in 1972 during Bob Barker’s tenure, challenges contestants to guess the prices of two prizes within 30 seconds. It’s fast-paced and unforgiving, requiring sharp instincts and quick math. Under Barker, the game was often a highlight—his dramatic pacing and clear guidance added tension and excitement. But under Carey, fans say the energy has shifted.

On platforms like Reddit, viewers have pointed out that Clock Game performances seem to falter more frequently in Carey’s episodes than in Barker’s.

Whether it’s contestants freezing under pressure, guessing in erratic increments, or simply not grasping the strategy, the results can be painful to watch. One user noted, “Bob added so much suspense and dramatic tension,” while another bluntly stated, “Anything ‘Bob vs Drew,’ Bob wins. Drew needs to go”.

Part of the issue may be the game’s unchanged format in a changing television landscape. Inflation has made the original prize ranges feel outdated, and the bonus prize—once a $1,000 cash reward—has been swapped for a higher-value item to keep up with modern expectations. Still, the core gameplay remains the same, and that’s where the disconnect seems to lie.

Carey’s laid-back style, while charming in other segments, doesn’t always mesh with the Clock Game’s intensity. Without Barker’s theatrical flair, the game can feel flat—especially when contestants struggle. And when they do, fans are quick to notice.

So what’s the solution? Some suggest reworking the Clock Game entirely: updating the prize ranges, adding visual cues, or even introducing a digital timer overlay to heighten suspense. Others simply want better contestant preparation and clearer coaching from the host.

Until then, viewers may continue to brace themselves for more “worthless” Clock Game attempts—and hope that the next contestant finally breaks the streak.

The Price Is Right fans reveal the ‘worst mistakes’ contestants can make

Fans of the hit TV game show have revealed some of the winning strategies as well as the common pitfalls that many contestants make on the show.

With over 10,000 The Price Is Right shows on TV, and more still to come, there tends to be a common theme amongst those who win big and those who don’t.

Hosted by Drew Carey, the TV show has become an iconic game show with fans obsessed with everything from behind the scenes to some of the winners’ stories,s ranging from funny to inspirational, like a recent cancer survivor.

Some contestants on the show over the years have walked away with cars and a couple of thousand dollars, and some have even won big, including a recent $40,000 win for an epic contestant performance.

Now, in a thread on Reddit, fans of the iconic gameshow have revealed the ‘worst’ mistakes contestants can make on the programme. A person started off the conversation as they asked: “What mistake is the WORST mistake you see players doing, ALL too often?”

Writing on the platform, one person pointed out: “Bidding a dollar UNDER someone else in contestant’s row. Not too common, but I’ve seen it way more often than I should.”

Most of the time, the price won’t be $1 under what the previous contestant bid. In the same vein, many fans said that bidding $1 over the previous person when they are second or third because the next contestant will just bid $1 more.

Another person pointed out another no-no as they shared, “Looking to the audience during a timed game.” Some fans also pointed out this is a huge mistake as one person agreed and added: “Even Drew [Carey] tells them not to look at the audience.” A third agreed as they posted, “Never look or listen to the audience for ANYTHING!”

Another mistake pointed out and said, “Not ending prices in zero in 10 Chances.” This potential trap is usually reserved for when playing for a car, which most likely ends in a five or zero.

It wasn’t just viewers sharing their thoughts either, as a former contestant shared their experience as they wrote, “I cannot stand it when someone has a range of say $50 or $100 and they don’t consider a guess that gives them that amount of money less as well as higher. For instance must be within $100 and they guess $115 for an obviously nice item. Use the hundred dollars higher or lower to your advantage. I know when people are on stage there is so much pressure but when you have the ability to strategize and they don’t use it it’s so hard to watch.”

Another viewer shared a rarer mistake as they joined in the debate: “I just thought of another one – you rarely see a Plinko player dropping the chip in the middle. They’ll drop it on the left side… then the right side… and back to the left. C’mon people, you want it to land in the middle, how about dropping it in the middle? No guarantee of course, but it would seem that the odds are better.”

Some contestants also fall at the final hurdle, as another mistake was pointed out for the final round. A viewer wrote: “Bidding an even flat thousand dollars in the showcase. There is no chance in hell of a showcase ending in 000-250.”

The Price Is Right premieres Weekdays at 11a/10c on CBS.

Price is Right fans call out ‘creepy game’ and beg host Drew Carey to ‘cut’ it from show ahead of new season

THE Price is Right fans have begged the show to change a specific game before it returns for the new season.

The Price is Right is currently airing reruns until Season 53 airs this fall.

The episode that aired on Friday was a rerun from May 1, 2024.

Lesa was playing to win a dishwasher, new dishes, an exercise bike, and a car.

To win the prizes, she had to play a game called Rat Race.

Five mechanical rats are wound up and put on a track.

Lesa had to correctly guess the price of grocery items in order to pick a colored rat.

She got all of the items correct and picked the pink, blue, and yellow rats.

Pink, yellow, and green were the first three to cross the finish line and Lena won the car.

‘IT’S CREEPY’

Despite the simple nature of the game, and the game show using fake rats, fans find it creepy.

Reddit users discussed the game on the platform.

The Price is Right fans rage at contestant’s ‘obnoxious’ behavior and beg producers to change ‘maddening’ show format.mp4
“I don’t understand Rat Race, and it creeps me out … I don’t think she won the car, but they gave it to her – I know Drew reads this sub: Please retire Rat Race!” one fan said.

“Agreed. One of my least favorite games,” said another.

“I used to work in an office that had a BAD rat infestation, and rats would run across the floor during the day! If rats are active during the day, it means there are so many of them, they have to work in shifts!” added a third.

“CREEPS ME OUT ….. at least the rats are bright colors and not black and gray.”

The Price is Right Hosts

The Price is Right first came on TV in 1972. Fans fell in love with the game show so much that it has been on for over 50 years. Throughout that time, the show has had a few different hosts. Find out who they are below.

Bob Barker – 1972 to June 2007 (also became executive producer in 1988)

Drew Carey – October 2007 to present

Dennis James – filled in for Bob in 1974 when he missed four episodes, also hosted the nighttime version

Craig Ferguson – 2014 April Fools Day Special

BIG BREAK

Fans were confused when The Price is Right was suddenly taken off the air.

Season 52 ended on July 4, but the show didn’t warn fans.

They only found out about the season ending when a Halloween episode aired on July 8.

“Did I miss somewhere in the last episode an announcement about a break or an off-season until episodes start airing again?” a Reddit user asked.

“Is the show done for a while?” asked another.

The game show is currently on summer break and will return with new episodes this fall.

Drew Carey will be back to host as well.

THE Price Is Right fans have urged the show to change a part of its format as viewers say a contestant took it too far.

On the show, the players often bid $1 more than their rival contestants, it’s seen as a dependable strategy on The Price is Right.

One person on the Monday airing had watchers saying they acted out of hand.

The contestant being criticized by viewers was Danielle Wagner.

The player was the first person of the night to be called down to the stage.

She didn’t win anything in the first two rounds of Contestant’s Row.

That’s when she changed up her strategy using the $1 bid method.

The tactic she used involves a contestant bidding just one dollar higher than the amount the competing player says.

They do this to try and secure a win without going over the actual retail price.

Though it can be a risky strategy, it often pays off if other contestants have overestimated their bids – for Danielle, it did.

She came closest to the price in the game.

Danielle won trips out of the country ultimately with the technique but a number of fans didn’t like the way she went about the victor.

Drew Carey helps Price is Right contestant spin wheel in sweet moment – but the host’s help cost her big money
The player won trips to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, and Auckland, New Zealand.

Despite her reason to celebrate, fans quickly went to social media to share their thoughts.

“I understand it’s a game and it is ~strategy~ but to bid $1 over the same person multiple times seems kind of shiesty to me,” a viewer wrote on the Price is Right forum.

Craig Ferguson – 2014 April Fools Day Special

“Then to win it all this way? I guess all is fair in love and war. It’s a ruthless world out there, Drew,” another added referring to the show’s host, Drew Carey.

The contestant only bid $1 more than the previous person’s try on three separate occasions.

“Absolutely maddening,” a fan stated.

“I wanted her to lose so badly. I was really rooting for the kid. But, I knew the he was either dead on or over. If only he bid $500 less! Sad day.”

“For me, it was her attitude and somewhat odd behaviour,” another person said.

“Her scrunched up smile and little happy dance felt arrogant in some way…. Maybe because people usually show some sort of remorse or grace for $1-ing when they win, and she was just like yay me! I did it,

“Whilst the other person literally provided her with her bid.”

While that contestant is taking the heat from annoyed fans online, host Drew has been accused of making a player miss out on their prize.

After it was the game show contestant’s turn to spin the wheel a few times, they needed assistance.

The host noticed the player struggling to get the wheel to move.

Drew asked if he could help them out and when he assisted them with the spin, the wheel got all the way around but landed on 15, which warranted another spin.

“I’ll take the blame for that. Ronnie, I’m so sorry,” Drew told her while shaking her hand.

Playing Favorites? Drew Carey Faces Heat as ‘The Price Is Right’ Viewers Grumble About Show Being ‘Rigged’

The Price is Wrong? Furious fans persist in calling out The Price is Right for being rigged and playing favorites, RadarOnline.com has learned.

Sources told us the ongoing accusations are taking a devastating toll on host Drew Carey and the rest of the iconic game show crew.

After a recent contestant won a trip of a lifetime, viewers sounded off online, blasting Carey, 66, for allegedly favoring some of the competitors.

“Sometimes I think they just give people they like the win,” fumed one poster. Another agreed, “Funny. Because I thought the same way also.”

A third simply wrote, “WTF” with a thumbs-down emoji.

The complaints have sent shock waves through the entire production team, a show insider squealed.

“Drew does a fabulous job but scandals like this don’t do anyone any good and it’s got people worried behind the scenes,” the spy told us. “They’re all adamant that absolutely nothing is rigged, but it still isn’t great for the show’s image to have fans making these sorts of claims.”

This isn’t the first time The Price is Right viewers have accused the game show of monkey business. Just a few weeks earlier, some fans questioned whether the famous dice game was fixed after a contestant rolled three sixes and a one to win a new car.

instead of being happy for the player’s good fortune, disgruntled viewers hit the internet to air their displeasure, charging that there was something fishy with the dice.

“Those dice were definitely rigged,” declared one commentator. “No way he rolled that.”

Another speculated Carey somehow manipulates things, ranting, “Boss already knew he won!!! He has some similar dice at home that he rolls.”

When the stand-up comic took over as host of the show back in 2007, replacing the late game show legend Bob Barker, there were plenty of complaints from loyal fans. But show producers stayed mum on the uproar and it eventually blew over.

According to our mole, they’re trying the same tactic this time around.

“This whole complaint about things being rigged has become a talking point that won’t seem to go away,” the insider explained. “Fans are demanding answers. The fans dictate a show’s success. So if they’re not satisfied, it could all blow up.”

“Everyone connected with the show says it’s complete garbage, but the longer they avoid addressing it publicly, the worse it’ll get.”

Source: MEGASources said the accusations have been ‘very hurtful’ to Carey.

Funnyman Carey is doing his best to laugh off the criticism, but it still “stings,” our source tells us.

“Drew is a sensitive guy and really puts his all into this show, so to have people questioning his ethics like this is very hurtful.”
