THE GIG...
MuchMusic VJ / Videographer
Co-Host of MuchOnDemand (M.O.D.)
FROM THE SCREEN...
Jennifer first parlayed her love of music and talk into a campus radio job at Concordia University. From these relatively humble roots, Jennifer's on-air aspirations grew, eventually resulting in a gig hosting the chatroom on TalkTV, part of the CTV network, with side-gigs on NewsNet, eTalk and Canada AM. Now, as part of the on-air team at Much, she brings not only her passion for pop culture, but also her mad technical skills in both traditional and online broadcasting.
...TO THE WEB...
A self-confessed Web junkie, Jennifer's got the know-how to back up her online activities - in fact, she started her working career at Sony Music Canada in the New Media Division. During her time there, Jennifer became the youngest manager in the company's history, working on Web sites such as OurLadyPeace.com, Prozzak.com and CelineDion.com.
...TO THE STREET
It's not just the dope threads, the funky hair or the 'tude... as "jennrock", part of Toronto's all female breakdance crew 'shebang!', Jennifer Hollett brings some serious moves to the Much environment. With energy to burn and an imagination to match, Jennifer's got what it takes to be the new co-host of MuchOnDemand.
