Who is Jason Kennedy?

Jason Kennedy is a correspondent at E! Networks, where he covers national celebrity news. In 2012, Kennedy was named co-anchor of "E! News Weekend" and host of the E! Online web series, "Live from E!"

Born in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, Kennedy grew up near that city and attended Westminster Academy, where his love for television news became apparent, even in his pre-teen years, when he spent countless hours chasing local news trucks and taking taxis to breaking news scenes for a mock-news show he produced and reported, from a studio he created in his own home. The studio was outfitted with 20 televisions, four cameras, a news desk and an editing station. Kennedy went on to attend the University of Miami, where he received several awards, including the Associated Press Award for Best News Feature in the state of Florida.

Following his graduation from the University of Miami, he moved to Los Angeles in 2004 and landed a job anchoring segments for Open Call on the TV Guide Channel. Since joining the E! Networks team, Kennedy has been a weekend anchor for E! News, hosted the Daily 10 show, and has hosted the "Last Bride Standing" special for E!
