Vanna White Says She Didn’t Know This ‘Wheel of Fortune’ Secret

During a September 5 interview with ABC News, Seacrest and White chatted about the new season of “Wheel of Fortune.”

Seacrest shared a show secret that left his co-host stunned.

When asked how frequently he spins the famous wheel, Seacrest admitted, “I did it once, and that was the only time. It didn’t go far. I didn’t put my leg into it.”

He also revealed, “And do you know the clicking sound? There are rubber bands, like you used to have with orthodontia on your teeth … That’s what makes the clicking sound.”

White confessed, “Do you know, I never knew that?”

Seacrest joked, “Well, welcome to season 43! You’re going to really like it here.”

Fans are thrilled to see Seacrest and White back in action on the game show. The comments section of the show’s August 27 Instagram post was flooded with people saying, “Can’t wait” and “Welcome back!”

“I am so ready for season 43 and I am also ready to be Ryan Seacrest’s first male million dollar winner,” one excited fan shared.

“The transition was amazing,” White shared. “He just slipped right in like he’s been doing it forever.”

Seacrest also revealed that he has a big goal for “Wheel” this season — he wants to give away $1 million.

“That’s been sort of my goal since I started,” he shared.

White added, “It has! I feel like it’s gotta happen … Think positive.”

Seacrest is adding more “Wheel” hosting duties to his plate, as he’ll take on “Celebrity Wheel of Fortune.” He is looking forward to having “a different kind of fun” because “there’s more time.”
