YouTube star Lily Singh confirmed news about her new late-night show, A Little Late With Lilly Singh.

The comedian has accomplished many things in her career with one being the start of her very own production company, Unicorn Island Production, starring in HBO adaptation of Fahrenheit 451, releasing her New York Times #1 bestseller How To Be A Bawse, becoming an UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador, and winning Favorite YouTube Star at the People’s Choice Award. You can now add “late night show,” to the list of her accomplishments as NBC tweeted the news.

Singh will take over for Carson Daly, who stepped away from “Last Call with Carson Daly,” last month. Singh show will air at 1:30 a.m and will be a half-hour program with guest, comedy sketches and segments. She will also continue to post YouTube videos as she stated in her announcement video. She also told the world when guest starred on Jimmy Fallon The Tonight Show.

“I truly get to create a show from scratch. I get to make it inclusive. I get to create comedy segments and interview people, and really create something that I believe in,” Singh stated, “I’m so honored and humbled.” Fallon then proceeded to ask her what the show will be to which she answered, “Kind of like my YouTube channel, but just, you know, now I have more than three staff member.” While there isn’t an exact date for its debut, Singh told Fallon that we can expect the show to air sometime in fall.
