The winner of the Fan Favorite award at the 2014 Daytime Emmy Awards, Giuliana Rancic is an entertainment journalist, fashion and beauty expert, and trusted television personality with 3 million devoted followers on Twitter. She is the anchor of E! News, co-star of E!’s hugely popular Fashion Police team, host of Beyond Candid with Giuliana and has been on the red carpet for every mega-event in the entertainment industry interviewing the stars and getting breaking Hollywood scoop. Giuliana is watched by millions each week on E! on her hit reality show, Giuliana & Bill, which recently concluded its seventh season - the highest rated season to date.
Giuliana recently launched her own clothing line, G by Giuliana Rancic, on HSN – the most successful clothing line debut on HSN in 2012 and won the highly coveted HSN Best Brand Launch award.
In 2006, Rancic released her highly-praised debut book, Think Like A Guy: How to Get a Guy By Thinking Like One. It is a practical and funny handbook of rules on landing the man of your dreams. She recently released her second book, I Do, Now What?, published by Random House. Giuliana co-authored the book with her husband.

In 2013, Rancic created “Fab-U-Wish,” a program to grant fashion, beauty and celebrity-themed wishes to women battling breast cancer. This program is just one aspect of her ongoing mission to help those going through hardships to find happiness and a positive outlook on life.

Giuliana’s recent awards include the Alliance for Women in Media Foundation’s “Caring Is Sexy Award,” “Sexiest Mom” from Victoria’s Secret "What Is Sexy?" Awards, “Beautiful Humanitarian” award from Professional Beauty Association and Operation Smile’s 2011 “Universal Smiles” award.
Rancic is a force both on-camera and off but her remarkable success didn’t come easily. She is a true result of “The American Dream” and an inspiration to people, both young and old. She was born in Naples, Italy, in a modest neighborhood, and moved to the United States when she was a little girl. Her love affair with television journalism began before she could even speak English – her parents couldn’t afford a tutor, so she learned the language by watching TV.
Rancic received a bachelor’s degree in journalism from the University of Maryland and a master’s degree in journalism from American University. While in attendance, Giuliana worked for a Capitol Hill news bureau covering a number of stories related to the Pentagon, Supreme Court, White House and State Department. Upon graduation, she relocated to Los Angeles to pursue her true passion—entertainment—where she currently resides with her husband, speaker Bill Rancic.
