The Keke Palmer Project is the current name of the network’s newest daily talk show aimed at the millennial generation – and with Palmer at the helm, the 20-year-old actress/singer is poised to become the youngest talk show host in TV history.
The show is scheduled to start airing during a four-week test run that will produce shows Monday through Friday beginning in July, Deadline reports.
Palmer will invite celebrities to join her for sit-down interviews while the show will also include various segments on topics ranging from pop culture to social issues.
The show will be produced by Telepictures and Mathis Productions, a company owned by Judge Greg Mathis.
Palmer’s show joins BET’s other black-female-run syndicated talk shows like The Wendy Williams Show and The Queen Latifah Show. Telepictures’ own panel talk show The Real is also set to join the Viacom-owned network line-up this fall.
Over the years, Palmer has built a stellar resume which boasts roles in films and shows like Akeelah and the Bee and True Jackson, VP.
She is a a four-time BET Awards nominee, an award winner of the network’s Young Stars award and currently stars in Showtime’s drama Masters of Sex.
