Looks like Monday’s installment of The Kelly Clarkson Show is shaping up to be a potent cocktail of vocal pyrotechnics, celebrity dish, and earnest conversations. First up, Clarkson herself tackles Whitney Houston’s Everest-sized ballad, “I Will Always Love You,” for her daily Kellyoke segment.
Emmy winner Kristin Chenoweth, fresh off her Netflix project Our Little Secret, will be on hand to, well, maybe not spill all the secrets, but certainly share some tidbits about working with Lindsay Lohan. This is the part where I pretend to be mildly curious about the movie, despite it sounding like a Lifetime holiday special that got lost on its way to the Hallmark Channel.
Switching gears, Aldis Hodge will discuss his foray into the world of James Patterson adaptations with Cross, his new Prime Video crime drama. Hodge takes on the mantle of Alex Cross, so we can expect a serious discussion about the pressures of inhabiting such a well-known character (or possibly just a chat about his favorite snacks on set, you never know).
In what might be considered the show’s “slightly less famous but still interesting” corner, fantasy author Alex Aster will discuss her new novel “Lightlark”, and fashion guru Lawrence Zarian will offer advice on finding stylish steals. Plus, the show shines a light on two worthy causes: the Venture Out Project and the GenderCool Project, both focused on supporting and understanding the LGBTQ+ community.
So there you have it: a talk show smorgasbord ranging from potential vocal greatness to bargain-hunting tips.
The Kelly Clarkson Show airs weekdays on NBC, check your local listings.
