Selena Gomez will be seen showcasing her hosting and cooking skills—again—via two new food shows!

According to a Variety report, Food Network has tapped the singer-actress to host two upcoming series.

The first show from the Only Murders in the Building star, who also hosts cooking series Selena + Chef at HBO Max, will be a "celebration-focused series" debuting during the holiday season later this year. Gomez will also launch a show in 2024 that sees her going to other chefs' kitchens for a change.

The untitled project will feature Gomez "meeting up with some of the best chefs in the country in a quest to cook their most popular dishes when she visits their kitchens."

These new shows are unrelated to Selena + Chef, which has not yet been renewed for a fifth season at Max.

Created in partnership with The Lumistella Company, Food Network's The Elf on the Shelf: Sweet Showdown (working title) is "set in a whimsical holiday wonderland and will feature The Elf on the Shelf's Scout Elves challenging some of the best sweets makers from across the country to create the most magical and unexpected holiday creations ever seen."

"The holidays are always huge for Food Network, reaching nearly 60 million P2+ viewers, and having Selena kicking off the nearly 100 hours of new and returning holiday programming will certainly make this coming season one to celebrate," Kathleen Finch, Warner Bros. Discovery's chairman and chief content officer of US Networks.

Both Gomez-hosted series hail from July Moon Productions and The Intellectual Property Corporation,which is  part of Sony Pictures Television for Food Network. (ANI)
