 Report: Regis Philbin Quit Show Over Pay CutMoney matters may have been at the heart of Regis Philbin's surprise decision to quit his morning talk show after 28 years, according to TMZ. Sources connected to the show tell the web site that Reege was being forced to take a pay cut when his contract expired. The executives behind "Live with Regis and Kelly" wanted to reduce the veteran co-host's salary, allegedly because the program is not performing in the ratings as well as it once did. The amount of time Philbin, 79, takes off — he's battled several health issues in recent years — was also cited as a reason. Regis: "No, I'm Not Sick," Kelly Blindsided by the News Philbin was reportedly angry with the renewed contract offer and that may have been the catalyst for his decision to announce his retirement last Tuesday and leave the show later this year. David Letterman Begs Regis Not to Retire According to inside sources, Philbin currently earns between $18 and $20 million a year. Philbin's agent, Jim Griffin, has since been fired. TMZ claims Regis felt Griffin did not handle the contract negotiations effectively. | ||||||
