NBC broadcaster Maria Taylor proved this week that she isn't afraid to answer questions that are a bit unusual.
Taylor just completed her fifth season as the host of NBC's "Football Night in America." She made history in February by becoming the first Black woman to host the Super Bowl pregame show and present the Vince Lombardi Trophy in the same night.
After wrapping up NBC's coverage of Super Bowl LX, Taylor took a trip to Milan to cover the 2026 Winter Olympics. It was a busy stretch to say the least, but now she's got time to relax.

Taylor recently made an appearance on "Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen." It didn't take long for Andy Cohen to bring out some hard-hitting questions.
"Tell me objectively - if you don't mind - who's the hottest athlete you've ever interviewed?" Cohen asked Taylor.
After laughing at Cohen's question for a second, Taylor quickly replied, "Jalen Hurts."
Eagles fans love this response from Maria Taylor.
Those who are fans of the Philadelphia Eagles approved of Taylor's pick for "hottest athlete" in sports.
"She did not have to think about it," one fan said. "And she’s right. QUEEN."
"The lack of hesitation is appreciated! Bc who else would it be? That man," a TikTok user wrote.
"That man is gorgeous and he respects women," another fan commented.
In Taylor's defense, Hurts has been incredibly popular for years now. He's a Super Bowl champion who constantly stays out of trouble.
