Jeannie Mai
Host
Now in its fifth season, “The Real,” now in its fifth season, airs live on Fox and is broadcast on BET. The critically acclaimed talk show has received multiple Daytime Emmy nominations for Outstanding Talk Series, and has also received an NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Talk Series. Jeannie along with three other bold, diverse and outspoken hosts reflect the home audience by unapologetically saying what real women are actually thinking. In 2018, Jeannie and her co-hosts received a Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Talk Show Host.
Prior to “The Real,” Jeannie was known as the sassy host of Style Network’s Emmy-nominated show “How Do I Look?” where she utilized her cheeky sense of humor to boost the self-esteem and life goals of women through their style choices. With a vision to empower women worldwide, she brought the success of this American show overseas and is now the executive producer and host of the lively and heartfelt series, “How Do I Look? Asia.”
Outside of her television career, Jeannie has been a brand ambassador for numerous companies including: Macy’s, Colgate, Yoplait, The Limited, Microsoft, Biogen, David’s Bridal, Ford, Avon, Splenda and Woolite. In the digital realm, Jeannie was the resident contributor to Perez Hilton’s fashion site Cocoperez.com. She hosted the first-ever stylist competition on YouTube Maker’s “The Next Style Star” and was the digital correspondent for NBC's “Fashion Star.” Her popularity on television and social media paved the way for Jeannie to become a frequent live event emcee for BeautyCon, which is America’s largest global beauty experience for millennials and digital content creators.
Deeply committed to charities that advance women’s interests, Jeannie serves as a board member for organizations, such as Dress for Success and Same Sky, to build the business potential for women. As a first-generation daughter to immigrant Vietnamese and Chinese parents, Jeannie strives to give back to her homeland by frequently traveling to Asia to volunteer her time with inspiring organizations dedicated to helping those who are less fortunate. For the past five years, she has served as an advocate to fight human trafficking. Currently Jeannie is an ambassador for the Pacific Links Foundation, an organization committed to rescuing women and children from sex trafficking and modern-day slavery by providing employment and vocational opportunities. She is also an ambassador for Step Up whose mission is to propel girls from under-resourced communities to fulfill their potential by empowering them to become confident, college-bound, career-focused, and ready to join the next generation of professional women. Before that, she served as a missionary and ambassador to organizations such as Nightlight International, Not For Sale and Heartbeat Vietnam.
