TV Personality

The Resume

    (December 30, 1978- )
    Born in Allentown, Pennsylvania
    Birth name is Andreana Kostantina Tantaros
    Fox News political analyst, commentator
    Co-host of 'Outnumbered' (2014- 2016)
    Original co-host of 'The Five' (2011-2016)
    Author of 'Tied Up in Knots: How Getting What We Wanted Made Women Miserable' (2016)
    Sued the Fox News Channel claiming sexual harassment, mainly by Roger Ailes, Bill O'Reilly, and Scott Brown (Aug. 2016)

Why she might be annoying:

    She is confused with fellow Fox News personality, Kimberly Guilfoyle.
    Her suit against Fox News had her allege that the station was a ‘Sex-Fueled, Playboy Mansion-Like Cult.’
    Her justification for the CIA's use of torture and the push-back against it? 'The United States of America is awesome! We are awesome! But we’ve had this discussion. We’ve closed the book on it. The reason they want the discussion is not to show how awesome we are. It’s to show us how we’re not awesome.'
    She joked about Cory Booker's pledge to live off of food stamps for a week to draw attention to SNAP reform (saying 'I should try it because, do you know how fabulous I'd look? I mean, the camera adds ten pounds. It really does. I would be looking great!')
    She released a tweet criticizing Jeb Bush by claiming his own son wouldn't serve in Iraq, and then backtracked when it was revealed that George P. Bush did a tour of Afghanistan by claiming he received 'special treatment.'
    She followed Gretchen Carlson in publicly accusing Roger Ailes and several other Fox News personalities of workplace harassment but has a known history of downplaying or dismissing feminists' same concerns about sexual assault.
    Specifically, she criticized the feminist movement for 'turning women into sexualized freaks' who engage in statutory rape and dissing liberal women as '[just] a bunch of angry chicks that just hate on really attractive women.'

Why she might not be annoying:

    She graduated from Lehigh University with a degree in French and journalism.
    She completed her graduate studies at the Sarbonne in Paris.
    Her father is a Greek immigrant who started a popular local restaurant (she waited tables there as a kid).
    She has been known to repeatedly make the ornery Bob Beckel cry on several occasions.
    There's ample reason to believe that some of her ditzy theatrics are just that - an act.
    She was part of the winning team that comprised the original 'Five' cast (by 2013, it had become only the second most-watched show on cable news).
    Her younger brother was born with special needs and passed away from complications, in 2013 (she became emotional reading a tribute to him on the first 'Five' episode following her return).
    She criticized President Obama's crying during a pro-gun control speech, saying 'This is how many years? Almost eight years, he's almost at the end of his term, and you haven't heard him go to Chicago and really speak out about this issue.'
    She was inexplicably pulled off the air by network execs, who initially cited their reasoning as being 'contract disputes.'
    She later claimed that she was pulled off 'The Five,' and later the network as a whole, after clashing with the Fox publicity department over her repeated rebuffs of Roger Ailes' advances between 2014 and 2015.
