Wickedly funny, fiercely independent and deliciously controversial: TV host and author KENNEDY joins the Daily Mail as our newest columnist… and you'll NEVER guess what she'll say next!

TV host, author and comedian Lisa 'Kennedy' Montgomery is today joining DailyMail.com as a columnist.

For over a decade, Kennedy has appeared on the Fox Business Network and Fox News Channel as a host of Kennedy, a regular panelist on Outnumbered and The Five, and as a guest on numerous other shows.

She began her career as a DJ at KROQ radio in Los Angeles before moving to MTV as a Video Jockey (VJ) covering the music and entertainment industry.

Her impressive command of showbiz and political news gives her a singular authority on everything from the hottest celebrity feuds, to the thorniest cultural debates and America's historic Biden-Trump rematch.

'I'm beyond excited to move from being a DailyMail.com fanatic to writer at this fantastic publication,' Kennedy said. 

'I hope my brand of no-nonsense rabblerousery will keep readers entertained, intrigued, informed and coming back for years… or until my key card stops working.

'The 2024 election is on course to be the most consequential in generations. So strap in! It's going to be a bumpy ride and I'll thrilled to be joining DailyMail.com in the driver's seat.'

Kennedy is also the author of two books, The Kennedy Chronicles: The Golden Age of MTV Through Rose-Colored Glasses and Hey Ladies! Tales and Tips for Curious Girls.

Her podcast Kennedy Saves the World airs five days a week on Fox News Radio.

Matt London, Opinion and Features Editor at DailyMail.com said Wednesday: 'We're thrilled that Kennedy's joining our growing team of columnists.

'Her sharp intellect, fierce independence and wickedly funny commentary have long resonated with audiences across political and cultural divides. 

'Everyone here at DailyMail.com is looking forward to what Kennedy will bring.'

Kennedy joins DailyMail.com hot on the heels of Tim Howard, Manchester United and Everton legend, our new sports columnist. 

She will also work alongside columnists Maureen Callahan and Jane Green.

Kennedy currently resides in New York City and has two daughters.

Her first article as a DailyMail.com columnist will be published later today.
