Entertainment Tonight (ET), launched in 1981, is the longest-running entertainment news program on television, holding a Guinness World Record. Syndicated throughout the US and distributed internationally, ET covers entertainment industry news, exclusive set visits, upcoming projects, and interviews with celebrities.
Over the years, ET has featured exclusive coverage of high-profile events, including the wedding of convicted child molester Mary Kay Letourneau and the funeral of Anna Nicole Smith. In response to concerns about paparazzi intrusion, ET announced in 2014 that it would no longer accept footage or pictures of children of celebrities from paparazzi.
ET's current weekday anchor team includes Kevin Frazier and Nischelle Turner, while Rachel Smith anchors the weekend edition. Past notable anchors include Mary Hart, John Tesh, Mark Steines, and Nancy O'Dell. Despite competition from shows like The Insider and Inside Edition, ET remains among the top-rated syndicated programs in the US.
