Journalist Zuri Hall is proving that not all reporters are starving artists. The broadcaster has become synonymous with entertainment journalism, and as a result, her bank account doesn't look half bad. She first made waves in the business in 2011 when she was made the face of MyINDY-TV, the first woman ever to accomplish this feat, per The Cinemaholic. She was catapulted into the spotlight with her work on MTV and as a correspondent for "E! News," where she was made a fixture on the red carpet.

Despite building her brand with E!, she made a major career move in October 2019 when she joined NBC to work as a correspondent for "Access Hollywood." As of late, the network announced she and comedian LaLa Milan will host the 2021 Billboard Music Awards live from the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles on May 23, airing at 8 p.m. EST on NBC, per Today.
