Keke Palmer Continues Her Hollywood Takeover, Tapped to Host NBC’s New ‘The Voice: Celebrity Edition’

Keke Palmer is adding another major television moment to her already impressive résumé.

The Emmy Award-winning actress, entertainer and media personality is stepping into hosting duties for NBC’s upcoming The Voice: Celebrity Edition, a new spinoff of the network’s long-running singing competition series.

Set to premiere in 2027, the celebrity edition will flip the traditional format by putting familiar faces behind the microphone. Actors, athletes, comedians, influencers and reality stars will step outside of their usual lanes and compete through the show’s signature Blind Auditions and Battles. Joe Jonas, Queen Latifah and Riley Green will serve as coaches.

And Palmer already has some advice for the celebrities brave enough to take the stage.

Speaking about the upcoming series, Keke encouraged contestants to embrace the experience of becoming a beginner again. Her message is simple: sometimes you have to be willing to start at level one, try something new and allow yourself the opportunity to grow.

It’s a message that feels especially fitting coming from Palmer, whose own career has been built on refusing to stay in one box. From acting and music to producing, comedy, hosting and entrepreneurship, Keke has continued to reinvent herself while expanding her footprint across entertainment.

That versatility also makes her the perfect choice to lead a show centered around successful people stepping outside of what audiences already know them for.

For Palmer, The Voice: Celebrity Edition marks yet another major move in a career that continues to evolve, and at this point, one thing is clear: Keke Palmer isn’t slowing down anytime soon.
