Kelly Clarkson relocated to New York City because she ‘couldn’t be in L.A.’ anymore
LA TimesStart spreading the news, she’s already left! “‘The Kelly Clarkson Show’ will film in the iconic Studio 6A, the former home for late-night talk show hosts Jimmy Fallon, David Letterman and Conan O’Brien,” an NBCUniversal spokesperson said in a May statement to The Times. “I was like, ‘I’m not living here unless it’s right by the park and really nice for the kids.’” The fifth season of the talk show launched on Monday with Clarkson’s NBC co-workers Seth Meyers of “Late Night” and NBC’s “Today” hosts Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager as guests. I don’t think people realize, with a lot of the people that got blowback, the stress of that decision.” “The Kelly Clarkson Show” endured some blowback of its own after Rolling Stone published an article in May that highlighted allegations of a toxic workplace environment from current and former employees of the daytime program. “I love my team at ‘The Kelly Clarkson Show,’ and to find out that anyone is feeling unheard and-or disrespected on the show is unacceptable,” the original “American Idol” winner said in a statement posted at the time to her social media accounts.
