Access Hollywood will be the first U.S. entertainment news program to broadcast from China when it covers the 2008 Summer Olympics Games, NBC said Monday. Co-anchor Billy Bush, who covered the 2004 Olympic Summer Games in Athens, Greece, and the 2006 Olympic Winter Games in Turin, Italy, has been named co-host of Access Hollywood's unprecedented coverage of the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, alongside weekend co-anchor and correspondent Shaun Robinson, the network said. During NBC's coverage of the Olympics, the athletes truly are the stars of prime-time television, Access Hollywood Executive Producer Rob K. Silverstein said in a statement. NBC will show you their medal-worthy performances, while 'Access Hollywood' will bring you their unforgettable behind-the-scenes moments. Access Hollywood's on-air coverage is to begin Aug. 4 and run through Aug. 22. The show will feature behind-the-scenes moments and exclusive interviews with the stars of the Summer Games, both athletes and celebrities alike, NBC said. (UPI)
