From a career of singing to TV, life “Couldn’t Get Better” for Kelly Clarkson right now.
Clarkson debuted her new daytime talk show, The Kelly Clarkson Show on Sept. 9.
The new variety show has replaced comedian Steve Harvey’s talk show, which aired on NBC.
The show is unique with its games, special guests, and of course musical performances performed by Clarkson herself!
The singer does a cover every show. So far, she has covered hits like “Sucker” by the Jonas Brothers, “Bad Romance” by Lady Gaga, “Think” by Aretha Franklin, and “Chandelier” by Sia. For Clarkson, one genre is “Never Enough.”
The singer is sticking to her country roots by creating her set to look like a rustic barn in addition to opening her debut show with a music video of her singing Dolly Parton’s country anthem, “9 to 5.”
Throughout the show, Clarkson exerts her natural humor making the audience and viewers feel comfort and friendliness like they’re right there with her.
The singer wants the theme of closeness and community to come from her show saying, “Each of us has the power to make a profound impact on another person.” She wants the show to offer a sense of “spirit of community, connection, and fellowship.”
The show has had numerous high-profile guests such as The Rock, Josh Groban, Ellen DeGeneres, Chance the Rapper, and even Jay Leno!
Clarkson’s show landed the highest daytime debut in the U.S. within the past seven years. The show racked in a household rating of 1.9, which hasn’t been topped since Katie Couric’s show in 2012.
Clarkson effortlessly carries the show and I believe she’s one of the best things to happen to talk television in a while.
There’s nothing like her out there. The show has an almost vintage feel, like a modern day Dean Martin Show!
It’s exciting to see Clarkson have her own show. For those of you who are fans of morning talk shows, the singer has cohosted with Hoda Kotb on the Today Show and always looked like a natural in front of the camera.
Clarkson is one of the best performers of our time and the first singer to win American Idol. Who would’ve thought someone like Clarkson would get her own talk show?
The idea of having a superstar performer host a talk show and perform herself, in addition to interviewing all sorts of different celebrities is an amazing idea that hasn’t been used in quite some time.
With a fresh face for daytime TV and a whole lot of momentum, Clarkson’s show is getting “Stronger.”
The show is broadcasted on NBC everyday at 2 p.m. and Bravo at 4 a.m.
