Maria Menounos best known as an on-air correspondent for NBC’s ‘Access Hollywood’ and ‘Today’ is spreading her wings. The actress/journalist/host who first started out in beauty pageants, has an overall deal with NBC Universal to act in films and TV, and is now a best-selling NY Times author with new book “The EveryGirl’s Guide to Life” hitting #3 on the list. And what better way to celebrate than with an elegant book launch at Melrose Ave’s newest chic boutique set to open in two weeks- Shay Todd and sip Martini Prosecco cocktails. Besides family and close friends, celebrity guests included a pregnant Jessica Alba, who skipped the Prosecco, Cheryl Hines, Rachael Harris, Rachelle Leferve and Michael Chiklis.
