ESPN anchor Molly Qerim turned up the heat with her latest summer wardrobe pick.
The First Take host sported a tight black top and matching pants during Wednesday’s edition of the sports debate show.
Qerim joined analysts Stephen A. Smith, Kimberley Martin and Chris ‘Mad Dog’ Russo for the broadcast from ESPN New York studios.
Known for her eye-catching on-air fashion, Molly cheekily called out Smith earlier in the show during a lively debate about the Dallas Cowboys.
“I know you like my outfit, it’s okay,” Qerim said to Smith, derailing the conversation.
“I like it, but the shoulders, ehhh,” Smith replied with a smile.
Fans at home were much more impressed, taking to social media to praise the eye-catching look.
“Molly Qerim looks amazing this morning,” gasped one fan on X.
“Can we all agree that Molly Qerim is looking really good today? @MollyQerim,” said another.
“First Take is Molly’s show,” declared a third.

“@MollyQerim is attacking the FT today and every day,” added a fourth.
Molly and Stephen A. reunited on First Take earlier this week after taking some time off for the holidays.
Fans begged Smith to return to his usual role as lead analyst, with the show “falling apart” without its usual team.
He announced that he would only return to the chair this week, before leaving for another vacation.
“So I decided, let me take a break, to go in and break down people’s emotions and feelings,” Smith said Monday.
“It’ll only be a few days, then I’ll disappear again.”
Smith and Qerim have run the show together since 2015 and have been hit with dating rumors due to their on-air chemistry.
Molly Qerim’s life in the spotlight
Molly Qerim rose through the ranks to become one of ESPN’s biggest stars.
The popular sports presenter began her media career in 2006 at ESPN and spent four years with the network.
She then covered college basketball and football for the CBS Sports Network in New York.
Qerim balanced this with hosting duties for the NFL Network in Los Angeles – fronting NFLAM and NFL Fantasy Live.
The host returned to ESPN in 2015 and immediately took on the role of First Take anchor.
And Qerim has been a popular and ever-present host of the daily sports debate show ever since.
Molly kept the location of her recent summer trip a secret.
But she gave fans a rare glimpse into her home life with a photo of the stables on Instagram on Tuesday night.
Qerim posed in a cowboy hat, camouflage pants and a crop top in the viral photos.
“Taking on new hobbies,” she declared to her 673,000 Instagram fans.
The first broadcast airs every weekday at 10 a.m. Eastern Time.
The show will move to ESPN 2 on Thursday and Friday this week to make room for Little League Baseball.
