Celebrity dish show host, Pat O’Brien has reportedly been fired from the entertainment show, “The Insider.” Paramount is rumored to have opted not to renew the host’s three year contract that cashed out at $4 million.

Paramount’s PR reps released this statement: “Pat O’Brien has been with The Insider since Day 1. He is currently under contract to us. We are in discussions to continue his deal.”

Sources report that Pat has been let go for the exact same reason that he got the boot over at competitor “Access Hollywood.” While struggling with alcohol addiction, a raunchy, and rather disgusting, audiotape of Pat leaving voicemails about sniffing cocaine and having threesomes to an undisclosed woman back in 2005. That woman was long rumored to have been Access Hollywood’s token Black host, Shaun Robinson.

Rumors are also flying that a number of women in the industry refuse to complete interviews with the “Insider” host.
