Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Musical Performance in a Daytime Program

The Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Musical Performance in a Daytime Program was an award presented annually by the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (NATAS) and Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (ATAS).

It was first awarded at the 43rd Daytime Creative Arts Emmy Awards in 2016 when the award was originally called Outstanding Musical Performance in a Talk Show/Morning Program and was first presented to Rachel Platten for her performance of her hit single "Fight Song" on the morning program Good Morning America. The Award honors the work of a musical artist and the Program’s production of the performance. With the current title award name that was established in 2017, on-camera musical performances from any appropriate Daytime show and several entries for performances by different musical artists appearing on a program are eligible to enter the competition, rather than just a talk show or morning program.

The award was removed in November of 2019 after category changes were announced.

The Emmy was named after an "Immy", an affectionate term used to refer to the image orthicon camera tube. The statuette was designed by Louis McManus, who modeled the award after his wife, Dorothy. The Emmy statuette is fifteen inches tall from base to tip. The statuette weighs 5 pounds and is composed of iron, pewter, zinc and gold.
