Entertainment Tonight's weekend anchor and correspondent.

This year, Kevin Frazier begins his fifth season as weekend anchor and correspondent of ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT, the #1 entertainment newsmagazine in the world.

In 2008, Frazier interviewed many sought-after celebrities and public figures, including Brad Pitt, Will Smith, Prince, Tyler Perry, Jim Carrey, Justin Timberlake, Will Ferrell, Janet Jackson, Charlize Theron and presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton, who named the interview as her top TV moment in TV Guide. Frazier was the first television journalist to interview Mariah Carey after her impromptu wedding to Nick Cannon in May. He also traveled to Phoenix for Superbowl XLII and hosted and produced segments for Ford Motor Company's "Freedom Sisters" event in Detroit.

Since 2004, Frazier has interviewed some of Hollywood's hottest stars and covered some of the industry's biggest events. In 2006, Frazier was the only television journalist to fly with and interview the Victoria's Secret supermodels on their way to Hollywood for the much-anticipated annual fashion show. In 2005, he traveled to Aspen, Colo., to exclusively interview Kevin Costner about his wedding to Christine Baumgartner, 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, Ohio; 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 and 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 feature films such 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.

Currently in its 28th season, ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT is produced and distributed by CBS Television Distribution and is taped in Studio City, Calif. Linda Bell Blue is executive producer. Mary Hart is anchor; Mark Steines is co-anchor. Jann Carl is primary substitute anchor and weekend anchor; Kevin Frazier is weekend anchor and correspondent.
