Premiere Inks New Deal With Personality Mario Lopez

Mario Lopez
CCM+E has  announced a new long-term agreement with entertainment personality Mario Lopez, who hosts the Emmy Award-winning syndicated television program "Extra."

Financial terms were not disclosed.

As part of the new deal, Lopez, and his wife/co-host Courtney Lopez, will continue hosting "On with Mario Lopez," which launched into syndication with Premiere Networks in April, 2012

In addition, CCM+E will expand its iHeartRadio Countdown weekend program to reach Hot AC stations with Lopez as host. Beginning in September, Lopez and Courtney will welcome a different A-list artist or celebrity each week to count down the top 20 Hot AC songs on iHeartRadio's Ultimate chart, which incorporates iHeartRadio airplay, top weekly song/artists from user-generated iHeartRadio Custom stations, weekly listener "thumbs-up," social and sales data.

"I absolutely love this platform," stated Lopez. "Clear Channel and Premiere Networks have been amazing partners. I look forward to continue growing On with Mario Lopez and launching the iHeartRadio Countdown on Hot AC stations nationwide, while sharing my life with our wonderful listeners for years to come."
