Kelly Clarkson’s Big Comeback: ‘The Kelly Clarkson Show’ Season 7 Premieres
I’m Kai Montgomery, a grumpy guru who begrudgingly shares wisdom, rolling my eyes at the obvious but still breaking things down. And, apparently, that includes covering celebrity comebacks. Kelly Clarkson is indeed hitting the reset button after a tumultuous year, and her daytime talk show, “The Kelly Clarkson Show,” is set to return with a bang – or at least, that’s what the publicity machine is hoping for.
Production for Season 7 of “The Kelly Clarkson Show” is slated to kick off the week of September 8, with all-new episodes dropping on Monday, September 29. Because, of course, the world was just waiting with bated breath for Kelly’s return to the small screen. The premiere week will honor Texas flood heroes with some surprise moments, because who doesn’t love a good feel-good story to wash away the bitter taste of last year’s drama?
We’ve known for a while that Season 7 was set to kick off in early September, so Kelly’s right on schedule – not that anyone was actually keeping track. Rumors swirled earlier this year that Kelly was ready to ditch the show, spurred by her absences, but sources close to the situation say those breaks were all about her ex-husband Brandon Blackstock’s illness. Because, you know, family comes first – or at least, that’s what we keep telling ourselves.
Brandon lost his battle with melanoma last month after a tough three-and-a-half-year battle, and Kelly’s slowly getting back in the game. In addition to her talk show, it’s been confirmed that she’s returning to “The Voice” as a coach, because who doesn’t love a good dose of televised singing competition? It’s not like Kelly has a reputation for being a tough critic or anything.
The staff of “The Kelly Clarkson Show” knew about Brandon’s illness and kept it quiet out of respect for the family, because that’s what decent human beings do. But now that the dust has settled, Kelly’s ready to get back to work, and we’re all supposed to be excited about it. I mean, who wouldn’t want to watch a daytime talk show with a celebrity who’s been through a very public divorce and a family tragedy? It’s not like there’s a more compelling narrative out there or anything.
Kelly’s return to television is likely to generate a lot of buzz, given her high profile and the drama that’s surrounded her personal life in recent years. Love her or hate her, Kelly Clarkson is a talented performer who knows how to work a crowd – and a camera. And, let’s be real, that’s what matters most in the world of daytime television.
As Kelly Clarkson prepares to return to the small screen, fans are eagerly anticipating what the new season will bring. Will she tackle tough topics like her divorce and her ex-husband’s passing, or will she stick to lighter fare like celebrity interviews and lifestyle segments? One thing’s for sure: with Kelly Clarkson at the helm, it’s going to be a wild ride.
And that, dear reader, is the latest on Kelly Clarkson’s big comeback.
