Under the bright lights of Las Vegas Denise Pernula's star continues to shine. This honors graduate from UNLV's Greenspun School of Journalism was hand-picked as one of Vegas' Most Beautiful People, and continues to offer more than just her good looks, flirty charisma and on-camera charm.
From Texas to Nevada, this small town Wyoming girl has been behind the mic perfecting and diversifying her reporting skills. Whether its hard hitting live news coverage for Amarillo's KVII-TV, a local ABC affiliate or covering the biggest games on the strip, Denise has done it all. During her three years corresponding at the World Series of Poker, she became an insider among poker pros and has also displayed her hosting skills inside the octagon, interviewing top UFC talents.
Denise now holds the key to sin city. For the past two years as Lead Anchor, Entertainment Reporter and Producer for Raw Vegas TV, she has taken her viewers to the most exclusive locations and celebrity hotspots in Las Vegas. Never one to shy away from the spotlight or red carpet, Denise has reported for E! Entertainment, the Travel Channel, MTV Europe, HDNET and Bravo, interviewing the most recognizable names in entertainment, music, and sports.
But don't think her talent stops on location.
Denise spends her afternoons covering pop culture for CBS Radio's highest rated drive-time program and the football season talking turf on ESPN Radio. She's traveled to Hong Kong with CEO Christie Hefner as a spokes model for Playboy Enterprises, appeared in Sylvester Stallone's Rocky Balboa, Ron Shelton's Play It to the Bone, and a Microsoft commercial directed by Spike Lee. When she's not chasing after a story, Denise volunteers for the Susan G. Komen breast cancer foundation and helps fundraise for New Vista Community.
