Stan today has announced that Emmy Award-winning TV host and entertainment reporter Renee Bargh has joined Stan as its newest ambassador.
Renee has established a name for herself as a host in the entertainment industry. As correspondent and weekend co-host of Extra, she has interviewed countless A-listers and Hollywood superstars, including: Brad Pitt, John Travolta, Bon Jovi, Nicole Kidman, Johnny Depp, Cameron Diaz and Usher.
Renee has also covered major events in Hollywood, including the Academy Awards and the Golden Globes, among others. Renee joined Extra in late 2010 and will be continuing on in her role for the show’s 20th season from Australia.
