Maria Menounos, the now FORMER host of ‘Extra’: A sexy retrospective

With the sad news that Maria Menounos was leaving Extra we thought for this week’s “Throwback Thursday” we’d take a look back at our favorite TV presenter over the years and see what she’s got coming up.

Click on to see Maria Menounos throughout the years.

Can you believe it was way back in 2002 that we first laid eyes on Maria Menounos when she started working as a correspondent for Entertainment Tonight? What was she, 18? Wow. ANd do any of you remember seeing her on One Tree Hill in 2004 and 2005? She was on 10 episodes!

After that acting role and ET she moved on to be a correspondent for Access Hollywood in 2005, a position she held until 2011 when she finally grabbed the hosting gig for Extra. Of course our personal highlight of Maria during that time was her appearance in the WWE, even winning a match at WrestleMania XXVIII and later being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2013.

Previous Throwbacks: Stacy Keibler, Scarlett Johansson & more!

Now we have to do our best to make ourselves watch Oxygen so we can catch her on her reality show Chasing Maria Menounos. Looks like Oxygen just picked up a few more male viewers.
