MICHELLE Obama is being lined up for a new job if her husband loses as a chat show host.

Hollywood executives believe the First Lady could be the next Oprah Winfrey if she decides to go in front of the TV cameras for a living.

Hilary Estey McLoughlin, whose company syndicates the popular Ellen DeGeneres daytime show, said: Personally I would like to see her in the White House.

But if she were not going to be in the White House, I'd love to see her as the host of a show. She's amazing. She reminds me of Oprah Winfrey as someone who has the ability to make people understand complex things in a simple way.'

Former CNN president Jon Klein said: Daytime syndicators are desperate for a new voice and she is tailor-made for it. She's thoughtful. She's committed. She's a working mom. She'd be a strong voice on issues important to her.'
