"Dancing with the Stars" heartthrob Mario Lopez will soon be dancing to a new tune: he'll be co-hosting "EXTRA's" weekend show alongside Tanika Ray.
"EXTRA's" Senior Executive Producer Lisa Gregorisch-Dempsey says, "Mario is a rapidly rising star and a dynamic personality on and off camera." Easy on the eyes too.
Never fear, though, you'll also be able to get your daily dose of Lopez as he joins joining Dayna Devon and Mark McGrath during the week on as a daily correspondent for the entertainment newsmagazine.
Watch as Mario makes his debut next week on the red carpet at the Golden Globes.

Snippy Clay Aiken co-hosted Friday's "Live With Regis and Kelly," and Miss Ripa was clearly unhappy with the moptop Idol contestant's attitude. The road got rocky when they played a clip of Kelly impersonating Aiken on Halloween a few years ago ... from there on, Clay got into the mud.
Ripa claims that Aiken was hostile toward her and feels that he wasn't "respectful in any way."
