| Nelson Aspen
is one of Entertainment's most charming on-air personalities in TV,
radio,
print and on-line. For three seasons, he was the Hollywood
Producer/Reporter
for TV
Guide Television and frequent guest star on everything from
celebrity
news and talk shows to PBS
Pledge Breaks. He's contributed to a vast array of outlets,
from
the syndicated news magazine Extra to
Southern California's Ralphs
Supermarkets--in "New with Nelson!" Only Nelson could pop up in
your checkout line making pizza with Wolfgang Puck, quipping with
Rodney
Dangerfield or taming tigers with Tippi Hedren! But there's lots more
to
this Hollywood Insider than just good looks, A-list contacts and
masterful
storytelling ability. No matter which side of the camera he's working
on,
audiences can't get enough of his unique storytelling ability! Currently, he's the Hollywood correspondent for both the wildly successful morning show of the United Kingdom, "GMTV" and the top rated "Sunrise," for all of Australia... bringing the latest showbiz and pop culture items to millions of viewers daily. In addition to his successful presenting work in the best-selling video biography "Hangin' with Leo [DiCaprio]," Nelson has just completed shooting specials on Jennifer Lopez and Catherine Zeta Jones. He has a serious side, too, as evidenced by his recent compelling reports on Michael Jackson and Katherine Hepburn. Nelson began his professional career at age 8 and went on to roles in the big screen's Ishtar and Off Beat, and TV's long running Search for Tomorrow. When his soap opera stint ended ("I was washed off in a flood"), Nelson pursued Daytime Television via production, working on the staffs of every East Coast based serial drama--from casting to writing. From there, he moved to the prime-time situation comedies Everything's Relative starring Jason Alexander and The Dictator starring Christopher Lloyd. During a hiatus, Nelson discovered aerobics. Grabbing the baton with his characteristic enthusiasm, he trained rigorously to become a top instructor and traveled the world conducting Master Classes and training other instructors (even Lady Di's!). He continues to specialize in health & fitness related stories. When the scandal surrounding film star Hugh Grant and prostitute Divine Brown rocked the airwaves, Nelson became a sought after commentator for TV shows such as Hard Copy, Inside Edition, and American Journal. Trusted for his accuracy and fairness on important breaking news, he can also play for laughs. His creative, off-the-wall lifestyle segments like "Personal Trainers for Pooches," "Hypnotize Your Boobs Bigger," and "Fairy School" show off his madcap side and willingness to take a pie in the face when necessary! Nelson broke new ground as the Microsoft Network's first mainstream "Cyber-Star" in his own website appropriately titled Nelson's World. His fun style of celebrity reporting and quick wit made the show an unprecedented hit. For 182 live episodes, Nelson produced, wrote, and hosted such powerhouse interviews as John Woo, Jeff Goldblum, Christopher Darden, Edward James Olmos, David Boreanaz, and Carroll Baker. His unique ability to package entertainment in a knowledgeable and sensitive manner endeared him not only to fans, but to the stars and their representatives, too. Some of his monikers have included KABC TV's "Party Patrolman," KABC Radio's "TV Guide TV Guy," and KACD's "Groovy Gossip Guy." He is the Celebrity Editor for LA Sports & Fitness Magazine, and contributes to other international publications, as well. All this and he still teaches aerobics! In fact, his innovative new class, "The Brains and Brawn Workout," is gaining international publicity. In the fall of 2002, he released a novel, "Sacred Blood," a historical thriller set in 1941 Nazi occupied France. Might the movie version be next? It wouldn't surprise anyone who knows Nelson. In October 2004, Kensington Books released his happy, how-to manual for entertaining, "Let's Dish Up a Dinner Party: A Fabulous Guide for Entertaining with Style!" "I love to be busy," he beams. "Bodies in motion STAY in motion and I intend to keep moving!" With his winning way, his gift of gab, and intelligent sense of reporting, it's not difficult to see why Nelson Aspen is, as always, going places. |
