The cubicle!


Hello! Here I am at my cubicle at Inside Edition... you see a few photos on the wall behind me... it begs the question - do you decorate your office to the nines? or keep it more simple? My worklife is so crazy and hectic, I tend to gather things as I go...instead of bringing in a ton of decorations in the beginning. I am starting to gather! Its fun to collect momentos from interviews and my travels...those are more on my desk than wall, however...What do you do? : )

Megan Alexander's Blog - TV Host




Megan works with Samantha Harris of "Dancing with the Stars"




Today I headed over to the set of Good Morning America to interview Tom Bergeron, the host of one of my FAVORITE reality shows, Dancing with the Stars!!! Also there was Samantha Harris, co-host of the show and a fellow reporter. She works for "The Insider"... as we waited in the media press room, I chatted with her and asked her how she looks so AMAZING when she just had a baby!!! She is so cute in person - bubbley and smiley just like you see on TV. And then, I walked into the Green Room and was greeted by Donny Osmond! It was just announced he will be a contestant! He is a DOLL - very nice guy. What a talented family he belongs to...Will you be watching Season 9 of DWTS? : ) - Megan

Megan Alexander on "Dress for Success"


I recently joined the New Jersey board of a wonderful organization called "Dress for Success"... The mission of Dress for Success is to promote the economic independence of disadvantaged women by providing professional attire, a network of support and the career development tools to help women thrive in work and in life.

Founded in New York City in 1997, Dress for Success is an international not-for-profit organization offering services designed to help our clients find jobs and remain employed. Each Dress for Success client receives one suit when she has a job interview and can return for a second suit or separates when she finds work.

In this photo, I am dropping off some of my suits ( many I only wear once or twice on TV) and donating them to Dress for Success. Check out www.dressforsuccess.org, find the chapter in your city, and help out! I love their motto "from suits to self-sufficiency"! Go DFS! I am so proud of this organization.
