It is no secret that there are a number of opportunities coming their way and we're fortunate that they've been with 106 & Park for so long. They will be staying on the show for a while, so that we can have a "victory lap" -- a celebration of their years at the helm of 106 & Park -- before their departure. Terrence J and Rocsi are destined for great success and we at BET Networks will always take pride in being their original home -- and be a place where I hope they'll always feel welcome."

Recent speculation suggests the male co-host is taking his talents to television rival E! News.

Terrence J has landed himself a new gig. The media personality, born Terrence Jenkins, is leaving BET's 106 & Park in lieu of his growing acting career, and might become the newest co-host of E! News. Jenkin's, who co-stars in the comedy Think Like A Man, posted a photo with host Giuliana Rancic on his Twitter page, Thursday (May 24), and appeared on the program later in the evening. While he has yet to announce his official departure from BET, the proof is clearly in the pudding. BET is also keeping mum on whether or not he and Rocsi Diaz have thrown in the towel after seven years with the cable network. According to reports, Jenkins is doing a test run and may be hired based on whether or not the public responds well to his appearance on the nightly entertainment program.
