Where Are They Now?: 106 & Park's Former Hosts
BET's record-breaking music video countdown show 106 & Park recently ushered in a new crop of hosts. With the departure of Terrence J, who has since snagged a job on E! and Rocsi Diaz who is moving to L.A. to pursue acting, we did a little research on what all the former hosts have been up to.
See what they've been doing below!

AJ Calloway:
After his tearful announcement about his exit from 106 & Park, AJ was snatched up to be an EXTRA TV show correspondent. While his professional life was booming, his personal life has proven to be just as successful, he became a member of Omega Psi Phi fraternity and married the beautiful Lao Sealey.

Marie “FREE” Wright:
Free went on to co-host the Ed-Lover morning show where she was surprisingly terminated. She co-hosted The Big Tigger Show with Free alongside another 106 & Park host. She can also heard on Live in the Den with Big Tigger. She runs Freesworld.com and a slew of other hosting gigs continue to make Free a household name.

Julissa Bermudez:

Big Tigger:
Big Tigger was no stranger to the BET family when he briefly hosted 106 & Park. After Terrence and Rocsi were announced as the new hosts, Big Tigger went back to his radio roots as host of his own morning show on D.C.’s WPGC 95.5 fm. That unfortunately came to an end, but you can hear Tigger every weekend on his nationally syndicated radio show, “Live in the Den with Big Tigger.” We’re still hoping BET brings back Rap City: The Basement *fingers crossed*
