Former MTV VJ Kennedy On A Radio Near You

1kenn.jpgA couple months ago we were on the worst date ever, and the guy made it even more unbearable by asking, “Hey, whatever happened to Kennedy, that Republican VJ on MTV? She was sooooo hot.” Well, now we know. From Franklin Avenue:

Former MTV VJ and Fox Reality Channel “Reality Remix” host Kennedy (real name: Lisa Kennedy Montgomery) is taking over mornings at alternative rock station KYSR-FM (98.7). She’ll be paired with Darren Rose, who will provide entertainment tidbits and news.

The morning show will still be music-intensive; 98.7 (the station formerly known as “Star 98.7″) has been all music in the mornings since shutting down its Ozomatli experiment last year.

98.7 has actually been surprisingly competitive vs. KROQ in dayparts outside of mornings, where KROQ is still dominant, thanks to “Kevin & Bean.”

Kennedy has already been working at KYSR parent Clear Channel; she’s also regularly heard on KFI-AM with host Brian Suits.
