We first met Zuri Hall last year when she was the new American Ninja Warrior sideline reporter. Taking over for Kristine Leahy, the experienced host fit right into the ANW family, and we couldn’t be happier that’s she returning for a second year.

While filming for next season has unfortunately been put on hold, we thought it would be fun to see what Zuri has been up to in the offseason—and boy has she been busy!

Shortly after last season ended, Zuri announced that she would be joining the “All Access” team as a co-host and “All Access” as a correspondent. (Zuri also confirmed that she will still be hosting ANW!)

And in typical Zuri style, she jumped right in, interviewing celebs like Mariah Carey and John Legend, and even had a scripted appearance on The Morning Show with Jennifer Aniston!

If you watched any of the awards shows, you probably spotted Zuri at the Critics’ Choice Awards or absolutely killing it in this silver dress at the Golden Globes.

But it’s not all work and no play—Zuri spent quality time with her friends and family during the holidays and snuck in a little vacation time last month for her best friend’s wedding.
