Kelly Clarkson’s Daytime Talk Show Picked Up by NBC
Stay tuned for the fall of 2019!
America first fell in love with Kelly Clarkson when she won American Idol in 2002. In addition to her powerhouse vocals, it was her warm personality that won over fans instantly, and she’ll bring that sparkle back to TV when her daytime talk show launches in 2019.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, The Kelly Clarkson Show will debut in the fall of 2019 and replace Steve Harvey’s Steve. It will air across NBC stations in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, Dallas-Fort Worth, San Francisco, Miami, San Diego, Hartford and Washington, D.C. ahead of Ellen.
“I love connecting with people, playing games, music and finding ways to help or give back to communities/organizations,” Clarkson shared in a statement. “Having my own talk show where I get to do all of these things is pretty much a dream job!”
