From Bessemer to Hollywood

Birmingham’s Eunice Elliott makes waves in Hollywood

Between working with TMZ, opening for Marlon Wayans at The Hollywood Improv and appearing on daytime show Person Place or Thing—it’s safe to say Eunice Elliott has been pretty busy in Hollywood. Elliott told Bham Now she was working in the newsroom when TMZ founder Harvey Levin invited her on as a co-host.

“It was fun and surreal. [Harvey Levin] actually called me that morning as I was on my way in to do the TMZ newsroom show and asked if I wanted to co-host TMZ Live with him that same day. We have been working pretty closely together on the new TMZ selfie tour and that’s when I think he realized I could do more than be a tour guide, which I really enjoy doing.”
