A hot chick joins "Access Hollywood?" Say it ain't so! But former "Entertainment Tonight" cutie Maria Menounos isn't just a pretty face. She must be one smart cookie too, since USA Today says she double-booked herself into two sweet gigs on rival NBC.
This fall you can catch the former Miss Massachusetts Teen USA on both "Access Hollywood" and "Today."
Menounos will join Billy Bush, Nancy O'Dell and company as a special correspondent when the nightly gossip show kicks off its 10th season on September 5. She will also serve as a special West Coast contributor for "Today."
The beauty also had a recent cameo in the summer blockbuster "Fantastic Four." Check out her IMDB.com entry for more information and photos. -- Rachel Cericola

Wrong answer...those folks are on ET...she's joing Access.

-- Posted by: Rachel at August 31, 2005 7:38 PMDon't forget her new Pantene commercial. Is it just me or is she incredibly easy to look at? In other words, she's like geogeous beauty queen and girl next door wrapped up in one.

-- Posted by: Rachel at September 3, 2005 9:41 PMThe kind that doesn't watch ET... in other words, a real journalist. I will correct the story once and for all.
