AJ Benza – Actor, TV Host, Author, Journalist
Benza began writing for Newsday in college who then hired him as a gossip columnist for that paper and eventually for the New York Daily News. He began appearing on E! Entertainment Television's The Gossip Show in the early 1990s which led to work on talk shows such as Geraldo, Hard Copy, Montel, The Maury Povich Show, and a variety of others.
Soon after leaving the paper Benza was offered a job as host of E! Entertainments’ Mysteries and Scandals. The show became wildly successful. It was on this show that Benza popularized the catchphrase "Fame, Ain't it a bitch," which later became the title of his autobiography. Benza went on to host his own late-night talk show titled A.J. After Hours.
