Entertainment Tonight's weekend anchor and correspondent.

This year, Kevin Frazier begins his sixth season as weekend anchor and correspondent of ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT, the No. 1 entertainment newsmagazine in the world.

In 2009, Frazier covered many high-profile and historical events. Among them, President Barack Obama's inauguration in Washington, D.C., and the death of Michael Jackson. Notably, Frazier was one of the first journalists to speak to Joe Jackson after Michael's sudden death. Frazier also interviewed Sen, Hillary Clinton during the 2008 presidential campaign, and Clinton later went on to name this interview as her top TV moment in TV Guide Magazine. Additionally, Frazier secured exclusive interviews with many A-list stars, including Jennifer Lopez, Usher, Justin Timberlake, Tyler Perry and the cast of "Twilight."

Frazier also appeared as an entertainment expert on such prestigious news and entertainment programs as "The Oprah Winfrey Show," CNN's "Larry King Live" and CBS' "The Early Show."

Since joining ET in 2004, Frazier has interviewed some of Hollywood's hottest stars and covered some of the entertainment industry's biggest events. In 2008 alone, Frazier interviewed Brad Pitt, Will Smith, Prince, Jim Carrey, Will Ferrell, Janet Jackson and Charlize Theron, to name a few. Frazier was the first television journalist to interview Mariah Carey after her impromptu wedding to Nick Cannon. He also traveled to Detroit to host and produce segments for Ford Motor Company's "Freedom Sisters" event.

In 2006, Frazier was the only television journalist to accompany and interview the Victoria's Secret supermodels as they journeyed to Hollywood for the much-anticipated annual fashion show. In 2005, he flew to Hong Kong to cover the "Ocean's Twelve" premiere and was aboard the airplane flight transporting the Oscar statuettes from Chicago to Los Angeles for the Academy Awards. Frazier also covered Super Bowl XXXIX in Jacksonville, Fla., and played in the NBA All-Star Celebrity Game in Denver, Colo.

Prior to joining ET, Frazier served as host of "NBA Shoot Around," ESPN's half-hour pre-game news program and "Fastbreak Tuesday," a weekly whip-around show that takes viewers to live NBA games across the country. After joining ESPN in July 2002, Frazier's duties included anchor of "SportsCenter," as well as NBA studio host.

Frazier began his sports career as an assistant basketball coach at his alma mater, Morgan State University in Baltimore. Following graduation, he went on to work as a sports reporter for WXIX-TV in Cincinnati; WBFF-TV in Baltimore; and WCBD-TV in Charleston, S.C.

In 1995, Frazier joined FX Network as co-host of "The FX Sports Show." The following year, he anchored the inaugural episode of "Fox Sports News" (now "National Sports Report") and hosted the pre-game show for "College Football Saturday." As a reporter on "National Sports Report," Frazier covered all major sports events, including the NBA Finals and the NCAA Men's Basketball Final Four. In addition, he served as sideline reporter for the "NFL on Fox" telecasts as well as host of the pre-game shows for "NFL on Fox" and "NHL on Fox."

In addition to his work as a sportscaster, Frazier has played himself in such feature films as "Rat Race" (2001) and "Juwanna Mann" (2002), as well as the television series "Inside Schwartz" (2001).

Frazier is also an active member of Los Angeles' inner city community, where he frequently attends events and speaking engagements.
