She'll be replacing Carson Daly, and her series will be called "A Little Late with Lilly Singh", which seems pretty fitting as her slot will be at 1:35 AM.
Lilly is breaking the mold as a late-night host.

Not only is she a woman of color — but she recently came out as bisexual as well. It's refreshing to see NBC choosing such a diverse host.
This move makes her the only female currently hosting a late-night talk show on any of the "Big 4" networks.
Doug Vaughan, executive vice president, said "Lilly is truly a star and we’re thrilled to welcome her to our NBC family.”
