Pink Takes The Reins At ‘The Kelly Clarkson Show’ Amid Rumors

Is Pinkgoing to be permanently taking over “The Kelly Clarkson Show” past this week? The “Raise Your Glass” singer will be kicking off Women’s History Month as a guest host for Kelly Clarkson, although there are some who are hoping that she will make the permanent move to daytime television following a successful career in the music industry.

On Sunday, the official Instagram account of “The Kelly Clarkson Show” posted a photo of Pink literally “dropping in” to the set wearing a sparkling silver bodysuit and matching boots. She appears to be singing with one hand raised above her head, and it looks like a microphone headset is hanging from her left ear.

Her announcement was actually teased in an Instagram video two days ago, with the caption, “SURPRISE! P!nk is ready for a crash course in guest hosting with BFF Kerri!” Kelly brought Pink out on stage, and the two shared a hug, where Kelly joked about how she “never thought” she’d ever see Pink holding a clipboard.

“You and Pink together is so much for my heart,” one fan commented next to a series of red heart emojis. “Can’t wait to see this airing,” a member of the Pink fan club wrote. Spotify even jumped into the conversation, writing, “P!nk, the queen that you are,” next to the emoji of a crown.

“The 2000’s greatest voices covering each other are gonna be insane,” another follower shared, referring to Kelly’s popular “Kellyoke” series. “I agree, but they’re STILL top voices in 2026. Timeless they are,” another follower chimed in. Regardless, many fans expressed that they were “so excited” to see Pink in the daytime television slot.

As The Blast previously reported, sources told Page Six that Pink, real name Alecia Beth Moore, moved to New York to permanently take on hosting duties.

“I saw her at Soho House yesterday with a guy who seemed to be part of [the] team,” a source who is a member of the Meatpacking District private club stated. “She spent a few hours reading paperwork and documents on a computer.”

The insider also touched on her possible takeover of the show, noting, “She’s been guest-hosting, and it seems she’s doing very well, and that’s the plan.”

After seven seasons on the air, the “Stronger” singer found it necessary to step away from the spotlight to take care of her daughter, River, 11, and her son, Remington, 9, following the death of her ex-husband, Brandon Blackston, who passed away at the age of 48 after a three-year battle with cancer.

“Kelly didn’t realize how all-consuming the show would be,” an insider told Us Weekly about why she was leaving the show.  “Kelly’s been through so much in her life, and she just pushes on. A lot of that comes from her selfless nature. She has people who depend on her, and she puts them first.”

They admitted that Kelly was “surprised” by how successful the show was, scooping up 24 Daytime Emmy awards during its run. “The talk show became more than she initially bargained for, and left her with little time to pursue anything else,” they added.
