Olivia Munn.

Olivia Munn (born July 2 1982) is a co-host of the show Attack of the Show! with Kevin Pereira, which airs on the G4 television network.

Olivia Munn was born in Oklahoma, but was raised in Shinjuku, Japan. She later moved back to the United States, where she is an actress.

Munn's first appearance on Attack of the Show! (AOTS) was on April 6, 2006, in which she was announced as the replacement for Sarah Lane who left the show along with Brendan Moran after their marriage announcement. The first episode she co-hosted aired on April 10, 2006. She also hosts a podcast on G4 known as The Daily Nut, which is in the Top 10 for iTunes downloads, as well as Formula D, a show that highlights various drift races. While Munn is more well-known for AOTS, she occasionally takes efforts (as seen on her MySpace profile and on AOTS) to make sure that Formula D is not overlooked.

Munn is known for being a big fan of anime. She has said that her favorites are Vampire Hunter D, Shingetsutan Tsukihime, Baki the Grappler, and Salaryman Kintaro.

She is also a successful model. She has booked campaigns for Nike, Pepsi, Neutrogena, and Hewlett Packard. In 2006, she appeared on the cover of two magazines.
