For nearly two decades, Mark Steines dutifully hosted Entertainment Tonight. But on July 27, the 48-year-old — who interviewed celebrities ranging from Vince Vaughn to Tom Cruise — ended his 17-year run with the program.
Steines joined Entertainment Tonight on August 24, 1995 as a correspondent and substitute anchor; He was promoted to host in 2004. (Nancy O'Dell, 46, joined him as co-host in 2011.)
"It has been an amazing 17 years, now seemingly gone by in a flash. But 17 years I will never, ever forget," Steines says.
Though he'll no longer appear on Entertainment Tonight, Steines won't be disappearing from TV. The Dubuque, Iowa native will host the talk show Home & Family, slated to premiere on the Hallmark Channel October 1.
