Olivia Munn makes 'Daily Show' debut

Olivia Munn reports on the Gulf of Mexico’s Vietnamese fisherman in her Daily Show debut on Thursday (June 3).

The 29-year-old Munn, who gained popularity hosting G4’s geek-culture TV series Attack of the Show, is welcomed to the show during a taped skit featuring all of the current correspondents — Samantha Bee, John Oliver, Jason Jones, Aasif Mandvi and Wyatt Cenac.

The star,  who served as “Senior Asian Correspondent,” was interrupted by correspondents Jason Jones, Samantha Bee, Aasif Mandvi and Wyatt Cenac as she tried to report on the latest after the oil spill.

“All of them tease Olivia,” an audience member from today’s taping exclusively told JustJared.com. “They all try to size her up and protect their turf, so to speak.”

Olivia is the fifth female correspondent to join the show including Steve Carell’s wife, Nancy. The Daily Show’s newest addition also has another regular acting gig, her new comedy Perfect Couples, premiering mid-season on NBC.
