Simone Boyce

Journalist & Host

Simone Boyce is an Emmy-nominated journalist, award-winning creative producer, and TV host. For the past 15 years, she’s been a standout in the media landscape, driving conversations that inform, entertain, and inspire. As she’s made her mark across NBC News, MSNBC, Roku, Access Hollywood, and MTV, Simone has proven that she’s not just reporting the news—she’s chasing the stories that matter. Currently, she cohosts "The Bright Side," an uplifting podcast from Hello Sunshine and iHeart Radio that explores wellness, culture, and personal growth.

In 2018, Simone was handpicked to lead NBC News Signal, an unorthodox news program that blended witty monologues, live debates, and breaking news. For the next four years, Simone expanded her storytelling role across NBC, reporting live from Category 5 hurricanes on "Nightly News," delivering the political pulse on MSNBC, and presenting revealing celebrity profiles on "Weekend Today.” On MSNBC, Simone Boyce took us into the heart of the Harvey Weinstein sex crimes trial in Los Angeles. And her reporting in 2020 didn’t just follow the news—it anticipated it, predicting Donald Trump’s denial of the presidential election results with uncanny accuracy.

People are the heartbeat of Simone Boyce’s world. Every story she chases and every interview she conducts is fueled by a genuine fascination with the lives and voices that make up the rich tapestry of humanity. From the iconic Dolly Parton and the brilliant Viola Davis to the dynamic Reese Witherspoon and the trailblazing Regina King. And if you’ve ever caught a glimpse of her red carpet hosting at MTV’s “Top Gun: Maverick” world premiere or found yourself laughing along with Simone’s interviews on Access Hollywood, you know she brings her whole self to everything she does.

If people are the heartbeat of Simone Boyce’s world, then women are the pulse. Simone first reported on the underground efforts of mail-order abortion pill providers for Mic back in 2018. Then, in 2019, foreshadowing the fall of Roe v. Wade, Simone was on the ground in Alabama for NBC, sharing the powerful stories of women most affected by the . She doesn’t just report the news—she humanizes it, bringing her trademark blend of radical compassion and intellectual curiosity.

Now, Simone is genuinely delighted to wake up each day and cohost The Bright Side, a space where she gets to center joy, laughter, and learn from captivating women. She continues to draw inspiration from amplifying truth, celebrating the extraordinary, and weaving a bit of magic into every story she tells.
