Molly Qerim’s casual, behind-the-scenes moment quickly caught fire online, with fans flooding her comments with praise for her natural beauty and effortless vibe. While she’s usually styled in professional glam for First Take, seeing her in a relaxed, stripped-down look only made her more relatable — and even more admired. Qerim’s ability to switch from polished TV host to laid-back, real-life personality has helped her build a strong, loyal following beyond the sports world. Whether she’s breaking down the latest NFL debates or sharing a quiet moment from home, Molly continues to capture attention wherever she goes.

“First Take” host Molly Qerim had another viral moment on social media this week.

The First Take favorite is well known for her gorgeous outfits that show off her curves on the popular television show. This time around, she is being praised for the lack of clothes that she had on.

The 39-year-old took to her Instagram story and posted herself in a bathrobe while sitting in her bed. She gave a shout-out to her makeup artist for doing her face.

Qerim’s steady rise through the sports media ranks is a testament to her versatility and on-camera presence. From college football to NFL coverage to now leading First Take alongside powerhouse personalities like Stephen A. Smith and Shannon Sharpe, Molly has proven she can hold her own in any setting. Her latest on-the-road appearance at NRG Stadium for the College Football Playoff National Championship game only further solidified her status as one of ESPN’s most trusted and recognizable faces. Whether anchoring heated debates or providing big-game coverage, Qerim continues to shine under the brightest lights in sports television.
Qerim received her bachelor’s degree in communications and a minor in business administration from UConn. She began her sports broadcasting career as an anchor and reporter for CBS Sports Network.

Before First Take, she was the host of College Football Live on ESPN and ESPN 2. Before finally being the host of First Take in 2015, Qerim worked for NFL Network.

Currently, Molly is with Stephen A. Smith and Shannon Sharpe from the NRG Stadium as First Take went on the road. The trio previewed the big CFB National Championship game between the Michigan Wolverines and the Washington Huskies.
