Meghan Trainor is getting her own NBC sitcom

Variety

The "All About That Bass" singer has signed an overall deal with NBC Universal that includes a comedy series that she'll star in and help develop, though no writers are attached and a concept hasn't been set. The deal will also allow Trainor to work on other projects on NBC Universal's many outlets, including Peacock. Trainor called the deal “so beyond a dream come true." Susan Rovner, head of NBC Universal Television and Streaming, says of Trainor: "In addition to being a phenomenally talented performer, Meghan is a vibrant and hilarious ray of light who is the perfect fit for NBC’s brand. We love the idea of introducing Meghan into the world of scripted comedy as well working with her to find all the creative and crazy ways she can engage with fans across our brands. With eight distinct platforms, we’re able to provide the ultimate playground for multi-hyphenate artists, and this is just one of the ways we’re leveraging our new structure to benefit both talent and audiences.”
