The Bbc is not responsible for the content of external sites.The format of her new show, After Midnight , will be based on Comedy Central 's @midnight With Chris Hardwick , which ran from 2013-2017 and featured a panel of comics.
Production company Funny Or Die, who are behind Brockmire and Billy on The Street , produced the original @midnight and will again return to create this series, with Colbert serving as an executive producer.
He announced After Midnight would be broadcast next year on his show on Wednesday, saying " We'll need someone who is, I don't know, fun, likeable, young, In Touch with online trends and available every night of the week. "
Colbert shared a screenshot of The Moment he told Tomlinson she had got The Job , over a Zoom call earlier This Week .
Tomlinson, who is currently on a US comedy tour, then joined Colbert on the sofa, joking: " I've never had a real job".
She referenced that she had been " doing stand-up since I was 16, which is not a job".
Tomlinson had a message for people who might not know her, saying: " I'm 29 so if you don't know who I Am , don't worry. I barely know myself. "
She then said that her 30th birthday is on Saturday and Colbert replied, " Happy Birthday , I got you a network show. "
Female network comedy television hosts have been hard to come by in the US in recent years, with Lilly Singh 's stint as replacement for Carson Daly on NBC being the only notable role in The Last few years.
Singh took on his slot from 2019 to 2021, before The Show was taken off air.
