E! searches for first local host

E! Entertainment Network has launched a casting call to unearth the next big journalistic talent to cover celebrity and entertainment news from Hollywood and right here in Australia.

We’re looking to find someone who can interview the hottest celebs and cover red carpets around the world. When Hollywood comes to town you will be the go to person to uncover Australia’s very own Pop of Culture.

Thousands of Australians turn to E! News and eonline.com as their daily source for the latest, credible celebrity and entertainment news. Now the E! Host Australia will enhance that experience and deliver a local perspective on both the TV channel, available via Foxtel and Fetch TV, and the popular eonline.com news website.

The Casting Call is now open. E! wants to hear from anyone who has a strong passion for celebrity news and pop culture and wants to build a long-term career, on air and online. No matter where you live around Australia or level of experience, E! invites you to audition.

“Being part of the E! family is the most incredible experience; I still have to pinch myself that I get to do my dream job interviewing some of the world’s most famous personalities, day in and day out,” says Giuliana Rancic, E! News Anchor and Managing Editor. “It’s exciting that the search for looking for a local face of E! Australia is now underway, and I encourage any Australian who loves entertainment and has their finger on the pulse of pop culture to jump at this opportunity.”

NBCUniversal Australia Vice President of Television Chris Taylor said “This is an extraordinary opportunity for home grown talent to be part of a global entertainment brand. Australia has a very proud heritage in grooming on air talent for the world stage, and we fully anticipate that we will unearth a star in the making”.

The Casting Call will close on Friday, September 5 at 6:00pm AEST. Auditions via eonline.com*.
