The Medford-raised actress, journalist and TV presenter Maria Menounos was in town Tuesday filming an “Access Hollywood” episode on the city she grew up in.Menounos stopped by Mayor Michael McGlynn’s office Aug. 5 for a brief visit and left with a Key to the City.“It’s funny, too, because apparently her producer had asked her yesterday if she thought she’d get the Key to the City,” said McGlynn. “Meanwhile, I was running around last night saying, ‘We’ve got to get her a Key to the City.’ Her producer was hopping up and down saying, ‘I told ya so!’”McGlynn said he gave Menounos the key to recognize all the charity work she has done for diabetes and AIDS.Before she left, McGlynn said Menounos accepted his offer to be the mistress of ceremonies this winter when Medford tries to break its own Guinness Book world record for the most people caroling “Jingle Bells” simultaneously.
