Should you happen to cross mind-blowing beauty with an irresistible dose of charisma, and add a splash of eloquence—what would you get? You get Charly Arnolt, the stunning sports broadcaster and TV personality who has carved her own unique path in the world of television. With a magnetic presence that can light up any screen, she’s the mastermind behind the mic who turns every sports event into a must-watch spectacle. Hailing from the heart of Indianapolis, this 36-year-old bombshell realized in her youth that she was destined for greatness and wider horizons. “I always felt out of place living in the Midwest because I’m such a fast-paced person, so I knew once I got to college I needed to get out. I ended up going to American University in Washington, DC, and the East Coast was totally my vibe. I’m such a go-go-go person and everyone at my school just assumed I was from New York because of my look and personality. They would never believe me when I said I was from Indiana!”

With an effervescent personality like that, it’s no surprise that from the earliest days of her childhood, the television screen held an irresistible allure, and the dream of gracing it with her presence became her unwavering pursuit. “Other than the fleeting childhood dreams of being a pizza maker and a dermatologist, I’ve always known I wanted to be on TV. I love to write and always relished speaking in front of groups, so it naturally seemed like a good fit for me. Growing up, Oprah was my idol.”
