Carson Daly is clarifying his future with The Voice following recent discussions about the upcoming spin-off, The Voice: Celebrity. Daly confirms that he is not leaving the long-running singing competition. He has served as host and producer since the show began 15 years ago and maintains his current role.
Regarding the new celebrity edition set to premiere in 2027, Daly explained that he is stepping back from hosting duties to allow for a new perspective. He handpicked Keke Palmer for the role, describing her as the perfect fit for the franchise. Daly remains involved in the project as a producer, focusing on the launch of the new format from behind the scenes.
Keke Palmer joins a cast that includes Joe Jonas as a first-time coach alongside returning coaches Queen Latifah and Riley Green. These new formats represent a shift for the network as it looks toward 2027. Daly emphasized his support for the expansion, noting that he is eager to see how these different versions of the program perform with the audience. The production team continues to work on the logistics for both the original show and the upcoming celebrity iteration.
