I had not realized he was Joe Dirt either at first. It’s a different side of Carson, right? haha

Carson really seems to have a knack for hosting. I didn’t know he had those movie roles!

He is so cute and sweet. I love how he interacts with the contestants on The Voice–he makes them all comfortable.

Ahhhh. Carson Daily. It’s been very interesting to watch moment of his career.

Carson Daly has been doing cameos in other movies in the past years. I think he would make a great host since he’s been doing hosting in other shows and programs for a long time.
