The Tale of an LA Talk Show Dreamer
St. Petersburg Times TV critic Eric Deggans is doing his best to nudge Maurice Jeoffroy (pictured) towards that national TV talk show success the latter so desperately craves. After writing about the Tampa resident’s desire to be the next Leno in February of 2010, he decided to check back in with Jeoffroy, a.k.a. “Motown Maurice,” while in LA this summer for the TCA Summer Press Tour. Late last year, Maurice relocated to LA to pursue his dream.
Motown Maurice currently keeps his clothes in a Koreatown storage facility, walks or takes the bus to auditions and hopes that a new web series, The New Jack Web Attack, might kick start his west coast career.
