Cannon currently hosts Fox's "Masked Singer." He was also the host of NBC's "America's Got Talent" before leaving in 2017.

“After leaving 'America’s Got Talent,' I wanted to focus on developing my own talk show,” Cannon told EW in a statement on Wednesday. “I’ve always dreamed of a platform where I can speak to America and discuss pop culture, as well as the topics on everyone’s minds."
