E! Entertainment's (DStv 124) daily E! News hosted by lead anchors Ryan Seacrest and Giuliana Rancic has expanded from a half hour to a daily hour edition with a brand-new set.

The new hour long E! News is now at 03:25 on weekdays South African time with 15 minute reduced E! News broadcasts during the day. E! News now features a state of the art set that has been redesigned in the primary E! colours of red and white, big video walls in the back, an elongated, transparent perspex table and a red, high-gloss floor.


''By expanding E! News we are bringing celebrity and pop culture fans an unparalleled entertainment news experience," says Suzanne Kolb, president of marketing, news and online of E! Entertainment and The Style Network, in a statement. "Our viewers tell us that they can't get enough E! News and they love getting the inside celebrity scoop from their favorite E! personalities. We're excited to give them more of what they want." Catt Sadler, Ben Lyons and Michael Yo has now joined E! News as correspondents together with Jason Kennedy and Ashlan Gorse.
