E! announced on Tuesday that the 38-year-old actress will be the next feature female late-night talk show host on their network.
Meet your next late-night talk show host, Busy Philipps!
The unfiltered 38-year-old actress is officially getting her own show on E!, the network announced on Tuesday.
According to a press release, the working title is Busy Tonight, and will feature "comedic commentary, interviews and segments that go behind her most popular Instagram stories." Philipps will also serve as one of the show's executive producers, along with Julie Darmody and Eric Gurian.
As soon as the news was announced, the mother of two took to Instagram Stories (naturally) to express her excitement... and her nerves!
"Guys, do you know that saying, 'The only things worth doing are the things that scare you the most?' Anyway, I'm super excited about this," she exclaimed, with a giant grin on her face. "I can't even. It's gonna be dope! Just to have a late night talk show, guys. Just hang out and talk about stuff, interview people."
"I mean, the good news is, I love to talk," she joked. "To everybody leaving really sweet messages thank you so much, and tell me what you wanna see. We're open. Open for business, and also suggestions."
Production on the show is expected to start this summer in Los Angeles, according to The Cut, who was first to report the news.
