Kristin Nicole Adams (born August 17, 1981 in Plano, Texas), née Holt, is a television personality and entertainment news correspondent. She is most noted as a host of G4's Cheat!, a television show dedicated to video game cheats and strategies. The show now airs as a segment on G4's X-Play. She also substitutes hosting roles for the network's other shows as needed. On GSN, she is currently hosting poker night. On January 1, 2010, Adams became the new co-host of the Character Fantasy film showcase on the USA Network.
She was an American Idol semi-finalist during its first season. She auditioned in Dallas and her audition was memorable because, in her rush to embrace Paula after being told that she had made the Hollywood rounds, she fell and slipped under the judges table. In the second season of American Idol, she was hired by FOX to replace Brian Dunkleman as co-host; however, on premiere night, the producers edited most of her footage out of the show, and she was later credited as correspondent for the show instead.
She has also worked as a morning radio co-host in Dallas on KRBV (now KJKK), the host of Hasbro's DVD game Shout About Television, a party game similar to Shout About Movies, and as a host on the Starz network. She also worked with V-Cast on Verizon Wireless phones. In addition, she appeared in a minor role as a reporter on a 2008 episode of the television series Dirty Sexy Money, and is reportedly scheduled to appear in a minor role in the upcoming film Rock Slyde.[4] She was formerly the vocalist of the band Stranger Days, having sang for the group from 2004-2007.
She appeared as a covergirl for an issue of Stuff magazine.
In 2009 she appeared as a correspondent on the fictional news network, "Santa News Network" broadcasts on AT&T's "Santa Tracker" cable channel.
She also hosts "AT&T U-verse Buzz" for AT&T U-verse TV customers.
