NBC may offer Pippa Middleton a gig

NBC is considering offering Pippa Middleton a correspondent gig on “Today” following her interview with Matt Lauer.

Sources tell us NBC has been angling to interview Pippa for a while, and it is set to make a job offer to the 30-year-old sister of Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge.

Pippa this week sat down with Lauer in London for her first TV interview, which will air on Monday and Tuesday on “Today.”

A source told us, “NBC, along with all the major networks, have been trying to sign Pippa for some time. NBC is set to make a fresh approach to her following the interview.”

The source added NBC’s offer to Pippa could be for her to take a similar role as Chelsea Clinton’s on “Today,” appearing in special reports rather than dishing on her famous family.

It was reported in 2012 that NBC was set to offer Pippa a $600,000 deal to be a royal correspondent. But an NBC spokeswoman denied this at the time.

However, Pippa would never have agreed to take on the beat because she wouldn’t be able to dish on the British royal family.

Still, the TV source added, “Pippa could do reports based on her party planning book or her charity work.”

An NBC rep sniffed last night, “This is 100 percent not true and it seems anyone suggesting otherwise is ‘royally’ ­jealous.”
