Talk Show Host / Celebrity Interviewer and Hollywood Insider

Steve Mason is an accomplished and versatile broadcaster with extensive experience on both television and radio. He is a frequent contributor to E! Entertainment Television, Fox News Channel, TV Guide Channel, Reelz Channel and ESPN among others, offering his expertise on Hollywood stars, the entertainment industry and sports. He has interviewed hundreds of celebrities over the years including Tom Hanks, Jamie Foxx, Catherine Zeta Jones, Morgan Freeman and Cher, to name just a few, and has been front and center on the red carpet reporting from Hollywood and New York. Currently, he is also the co-host of "The Big Show With Mason and Ireland" on 710 ESPN Radio in Los Angeles.

In addition to being in front of the camera, Steve is equally adept at the business side. He is an equity holder in FantasyMoguls.com which allows players to own their own fantasy movie studio and compete with each other by estimating how films will do at the box office (similar to fantasy football and baseball leagues). Players receive points based on the box office take and movie review scores. As lead analyst on the site, he makes box office predictions based on industry tracking, “buzz”, and conversations with Hollywood insiders. On Friday nights Steve releases his “Exclusive Early Friday” and “3-Day Box Office Estimates” which have proven to be remarkably accurate and a reliable tool that all of the major studios have been taking notice of.

Additionally, Steve is also a theater owner. He is the President and CEO of Flagship Theatre Corporation, which owns University Village 3 Theatres in Los Angeles and the Cinemas Palme d'Or theaters in Palm Desert, California.
