Vanna White Hosted Wheel Of Fortune Tonight
Vanna White is stepping in as Wheel of Fortune host alongside some adorable surprise guests! After the hit game show announced on Friday that White, 62, would be filling in for host Pat Sajak.

There will never be another Alex Trebek and he will truly be missed.'
