Kelly Clarkson has announced that her hit talk show, The Kelly Clarkson Show, will end after its current seventh season.
Taking to Instagram, the host and singer said she was stepping away from the daily show so she can prioritize her children.
“I have been extremely fortunate to work with such an outstanding group of people TKCSboth in Los Angeles and New York. There have been so many great moments and shows over these seven seasons,” Kelly said.
She went on to thank “the best band and crew you could hope for,” as well as all the fans who have supported the show, plus NBC for “always being such a supportive and incredible partner.”
While Kelly admits that it feels necessary to leave right now, she told fans that this isn’t goodbye. “I’ll still be making music, playing shows here and there, and you might catch me The voice every now and then…you never know where I’ll turn up next.”

The Kelly Clarkson Show launched on NBC in September 2019. Over the years, Kelly has gone viral for her funny and thoughtful interviews, but the show will most likely be remembered for its iconic Kellyoke segment. This is where Kelly would cover songs chosen by the crowd, with standout moments including Billie Eilish’s “Happier Than Ever”, Stevie Nicks’ “Edge of Seventeen” and La Roux’s “Bulletproof”.
One of our favourites The Kelly Clarkson Show moments were when Anne Hathaway was a guest on the show. Not only did she teach the world the best way to eat a cupcake, but she took on Kelly in a game of “Sing That Name That Tune.” She famously beat Kelly by identifying and knocking out her hit “Since U Been Gone”.
In a press release, NBC said that production of season seven will continue as planned with Kelly as showrunner. Special guest hosts will also be announced and season seven episodes will air through fall 2026.
