“The streak is over!” Shemar Moore declared when he presented Best Actress at the 1999 Daytime Emmys. When he opened the envelope to announce the winner Susan Lucci‘s name was there, finally, on her 19th attempt at the prize. Now Moore and Lucci will reunite when he presents her with another trophy at the long-awaited 2023 Daytime Emmys: the Lifetime Achievement Award.

Hosted by Nischelle Turner and Kevin Frazier from “Entertainment Tonight,” the December 15 show on CBS will also feature a performance of “Life is Sweet” by Grammy-winning Sugarland country singer Jennifer Nettles. She’ll sing the Emmy-nominated song during the “In Memoriam” segment that pays tribute to members of the daytime TV community who have died.
