Leeza Gibbons is extending her multi-year relationship with KTLA. The Emmy-winning host, writer and producer has signed a new deal with L.A.’s Nexstar-owned television station. Under the pact, Gibbons, who has co-hosted the annual Rose Parade since 2017, will return as co-host for 2025. She also will co-host Remarkable Women, Nexstar’s nationally televised annual special that honors the contributions of women in local communities across the United States.

“For 8 years, I’ve had a dream-come-true job and the best seat in the house,” said Gibbons in a statement. “No one covers this iconic tradition [Rose Parade] better than KTLA, which has become like family to me. Starting with the leadership of Don Corsini and John Moczulski through the exceptional Janene Drafs, I’ve been grateful to work with the best of the best,” adding “I’m excited to continue to host America’s New Year’s celebration and to help start a new tradition with Remarkable Women on The CW.”
