Our favourite YouTuber Lilly Singh aka “Superwoman” was recently roped in to take over Carson Daly’s spot on his late night show on NBC. She will be replacing it with a new series titled A Little Late With Lilly Singh, Variety reports. This will make the popular YouTube comedian and vlogger the only female to currently host a late-night talk show on a major broadcast network. The new show will likely debut this September.
Singh announced the news on The Tonight Show and Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyers congratulated her on the feat. Singh will be the executive producer and Polly Auritt will be the co-executive producer of the show A Little Late with Lilly Singh.
Superwoman also took to Twitter to break the big news to her fans:
“An Indian-Canadian woman with her own late night show? Now that is a dream come true,” Singh said. “I’m thrilled to bring it to life on NBC, and I hope my parents consider this to be as exciting as a grandchild.”
“A Little Late” will focus on in-studio interviews, as well as feature pre-taped comedy sketches and other “signature elements.”
“Lilly is truly a star and we’re thrilled to welcome her to our NBC family,” said Doug Vaughan, executive vice president, special programs and late night, NBC Entertainment. “She is a multi-talented performer who will surely have a great rapport with not only all her guests but also with our devoted late-night audience. We can’t wait to get started.”
