Larry King gets sidelined from of Larry King Live!

Larry King got sidelined from his own show, Larry King Live in favour of an interview of Anna Nicole Smiths baby-daddy Larry Birkhead.

New York, Sept 12: Larry King got sidelined from his own show, 'Larry King Live' in favour of an interview of Anna Nicole Smith's baby-daddy Larry Birkhead.

A source revealed that TMZ.com managing editor, Harvey Levin stepped into King's shoes after saying that the only way he would get Birkhead on the show would be if he took the interview himself.

Birkhead appeared on the show to hit out at claims made by Rita Cosby in her book "Blonde Ambition."

"Harvey said he could deliver Larry, but only if he hosted himself, to plug 'TMZ TV' [which launched this week]," New York Daily News quoted a source, as saying.

"Another condition was that no one else who was going to contradict Larry was allowed to call in live," says the insider.

"Debra Opri [Birkhead's former lawyer, with whom he is feuding] called in to the switchboard during the show and tried to get on air, but they wouldn't let her," he added.

The source also claimed that once Levin took over the anchor's chair, the other guests booked for the show were also dropped.

The move, the source revealed, had left King fighting mad.

"Larry [King] is livid," says the source.
