Kelly Clarkson Reveals Reason Behind Talk Show Move

Kelly Clarkson

Heading towards the East Coast! Kelly Clarkson is embarking on a journey to New York City with her self-titled talk show, The Kelly Clarkson Show, driven by her commitment to family.

The decision to relocate The Kelly Clarkson Show from its longstanding home in Los Angeles to Manhattan was initially announced in early May. Now, the renowned pop star and daytime talk show host sheds light on the motivations behind this significant change.

During a recent conversation with TalkShopLive, Clarkson revealed that she had informed her staff about the move as early as January.

“I talked to them because I was like, ‘Guys, I need you to know what’s happening. It’s either I’m not going to be able to continue the show or I gotta go East Coast,'” Clarkson recalled.

The singer explained that, during the coronavirus pandemic, she realized “being isolated and so far from your family… that’s not good for anyone.”

“My family is East Coast, they’re North Carolina based. So it was one of those things where I just had to,” she shared, adding that there were “a lot of personal things going on, too.”

Clarkson said that it was important for her and her family to relocate and that they “really needed a fresh start.” She praised NBC for supporting the decision, and recalled telling the network execs, “‘I know we can’t do this from my ranch so any chance we could do it in New York? It’s at least closer to my family.’ That was really the main reason.”

The Kelly Clarkson Show will relocate this fall and will set up shop at NBC Studios in Manhattan’s 30 Rockefeller Center, an NBCUniversal spokesperson confirmed to ET earlier this month. Clarkson’s show will film in Studio 6A with a live studio audience.
