About

Welcome to Hey, It's Anika.

Anika Reed is an entertainment, lifestyle and culture expert and senior editor of news for entertainment breaking/trending coverage at USA TODAY.

She’s worked at USA TODAY since 2017, covering the Oscars, the Met Gala and New York Fashion Week and sitting down for interviews with everyone from Denzel Washington and Michael B. Jordan to Viola Davis, Naomi Campbell and Mariska Hargitay. She is also an adjunct professor at New York University, helping mold young minds at the Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute. Anika is a graduate of the University of Maryland's Philip Merrill College of Journalism and is a member of the journalism school’s alumni board.

If she’s not laughing at TikToks or endlessly scrolling through Instagram, the rest of her time is spent mastering the art of napping, finding recipes to try, online window shopping and constantly staying in tune to new music, TV, movies and trends.
