The Greek-American actress, journalist, and television presenter known for her appearances as a correspondent for Today, Access Hollywood, Extra has now garnered hot publicity.

Hot Maria Menounos seems to be the talk of the town after her losing the bet at the Super-Bowl, last week. Sometimes some people can turn their failures too, to their advantage. The hot host had earlier betted that her team Die-hard Patriots would beat the Giants, this year. But the Patriots lost. The bet was if she lost, she would co-host the `Extras’ clad in bikini’s. Of course most would have prayed otherwise only…. am I correct. 

Ultimately the honored loser had kept up her promise, alongside co-host and Giants fan, A.J. Calloway, as well as a group of Giants fans. The mesmerizing 33-year old exposed her curvatures in a tiny red, white and blue bikini at the Times Square, daring the warm winter temperature, rising the youth temperatures.

This daring attempt by the gorgeous beauty has surely helped her rebuild a larger fan base. So see sometimes even by losing you win sizeable. Good luck Mario- you are rocking man… keep betting more and more dear……                                                   (With inputs from internet: AarKay)
