Rachel Lindsay Becomes Newest Correspondent for 'Extra'
Is there anything Rachel Lindsay can't do?
Rachel’s already impressive résumé continued to grow Thursday when the hit show "Extra" announced the Season 13 Bachelorette would be joining the team as their new correspondent. Season 27 of "Extra" premieres Tuesday, September 8.
Lisa Gregorisch-Dempsey, senior executive producer of "Extra," said in a statement, "Rachel is dynamic and whip-smart. Being a lawyer, a reporter and a celebrity in her own right, she comes with a connection with the audience that is the ideal fit for 'Extra.' I always love watching her interviews and seeing celebrity ‘Bachelor’ fans get starstruck."
We know there are plenty of celebrity "Bachelor" fans out there, from Kesha to Lauren Lapkus.

Rachel said she was "thrilled" to be part of the "Extra" team, adding, "They have an established, respected reputation and are a staple in the entertainment world. I have always admired the engaging, informed, and entertaining stories they bring to life. I am looking forward to joining this Emmy Award-winning team. I am excited to bring my voice, experience, and perspective to one of the best in the industry."
When Rachel isn’t hosting "Bachelor Happy Hour" or interviewing celebrities on "Extra," she can also be seen on ESPN and her TV show "Ghosted." She also is very vocal about causes that matter to her, including racial justice and getting people out to vote.
Congrats on the new gig, Rachel!
