“Hey, guys! I’m so excited to let you know about my new talk show, ‘One on One with Keyshia Cole’ where I’ll be talking about relationships, love and of course, lack thereof,” the performer says in an announcement of the series she shared to Instagram. “‘One on One’ is the show where we all come together and keep it real on everything from social media to social issues.”

The debut episode airs Friday night and will feature “very special guests” actor/comedian and radio show host Nick Cannon as well as Cole’s hip-hop artist boyfriend Niko Hale, with whom she welcomed a son in August.

“OMG IM SOOOO EXCITED TO TRY SOMETHING NEW!!! the singer added in part in her video caption.

Fans who glimpsed the teaser were just as delighted as their fav and let it be known in the comments section.

While “One on One” is Cole’s first foray into the hosting realm, she’s taken her talents to TV plenty of times in the past.

The “Heaven Sent” singer is a reality TV veteran.

The first venture came on the super successful BET series “Keyshia Cole: The Way It Is,” which ran for two years from 2006 to 2008. It spawned the spinoff “Frankie & Neffe,” which focused on Cole’s mother and sister and later led to the 2012 series “Keyshia & Daniel: Family First.” That show chronicled Cole’s marriage and family life with now-estranged husband Daniel Gibson as they raised their son DJ. Currently, Cole stars on VH1’s β€œLove and Hip Hop: Hollywood,” and she’s about to star on her own reality TV show with Hale called “My New Life” on BET.

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
