Maria Menounos is a former Greek supermodel, an actress, a talk show host, a journalist, a producer, a singer, a football player, a volleyball player, and a judge. She has also been a contestant on Dancing with the Stars, The Apprentice, and has guest hosted Celebrity Apprentice. Maria Menounos was born in Los Angeles, California, the daughter of Greek immigrants. She is listed on the 2021 Best Female Athlete list and has won seven World Series of Dancing titles. She is an American citizen, as are her two sisters. Her nationality is not known.
Maria Menounos has claimed on several occasions that she was born in Italy, raised in Greece, and that her true parents are not Greek. She did, however, receive her degree from Costanetics University. Her mother was listed as “alian”, according to public records, but there is no proof of this. Her birth certificate, issued in California, lists her as “Maria Teresa Menounos”. The same birth certificate is listed in the Greece Permanent List of Islands and is a copy of the same that was given to her by her mother when she moved to America.
Height and citizenship make up a good combination in the case of Maria Menounos. She is listed at a full ten feet eight inches in height, but it is possible that her real age may be much greater. Her partner, Patrick Swayze, who is six feet three inches and bald says that Menounos may be as tall as he is because her mother was Greek and moved to Italy. Menounos has said that she is only about five feet two inches in height, but these claims remain unproven.
