Called "the funniest woman on TV today, period", by The Province, Jessi Cruickshank has been the host of some of television’s most popular programs.

Jessi broke into comedy as the only girl in an all-male improv troupe alongside Seth Rogen. She soon became a household name as the face of MTV, hosting the daily show MTV Live and smash hit The Hills After Show, which was syndicated in ten countries and generated record-breaking ratings in Canada and the United States.

Jessi went on to host Live from E!, Oh Sit!, Jerseylicious, and Olympic Morning. She was also a correspondent for Etalk for six seasons, the co-host of CBC’s The Goods, and the host of Canada's Smartest Person.

Today, Jessi is the founder of New Mom, Who Dis?, a global community and national brand that has become a go-to destination for candid, honest, and always funny takes on motherhood. She is also the host of the weekly podcast series, Phone a Friend.

Please welcome... Jessi Cruickshank!
