Megan Mullally realized she was destined to become a TV talk show host when she interviewed Madonna for music channel VH-1. The star, who plays Martini-swilling Karen Walker in the hit series Will & Grace, will host her own daytime talk show in September after the sitcom finishes.

Mullally says, "It was a weird revelation. It was like I wanted to be a cattle rancher or astronaut, it was so out of left field."

The actress isn't daunted by the many talk show hosts who have failed in the past. She adds, "I don't think that way. I'm a cockeyed optimist. I believe there's room for everybody if you have the right intent and you're passionate."
