Kelly Clarkson let her emotions take over while recording her latest album, Chemistry, her first since ending her marriage to Brandon Blackstock.
Clarkson first met Blackstock in May 2006 and they were married in October 2013. They went on to have two children together, 8-year-old daughter River and 7-year-old son Remington, before announcing their split in 2020. Their divorce was finalized a year later.
“I was just crying, like, a lot,” Clarkson told Nancy O’Dell on “TalkShopLive” of making music largely inspired by her breakup. “Ending a relationship, you know, that’s gone on for years. You have children. It’s so involved. There are so many layers to it. …I just wrote a bunch of music, like two and a half to three years ago. And then I think the thinking came in when it was like, what’s appropriate and inappropriate.”

Kelly Clarkson is opening up about the reason she is relocating her eponymous daytime talk show to New York City after four seasons in Los Angeles.
The American Idol winner was interviewed by Nancy O’Dell for TalkShopLive where the singer said she told the staff about her decision in January.

When the news of The Kelly Clarkson Show’s move from Los Angeles to New York City broke earlier this month, an NBCUniversal statement emphasized the tax credit the state of New York provides. But in a new interview, Kelly Clarkson asserted that the relocation from the Universal lot in L.A. to the NBC soundstages at 30 Rock was her idea. In a TalkShopLive conversation, Clarkson told Nancy O’Dell that she informed her talk show crew about the cross-country move this January through tears. “I have built an amazing group of people,” Clarkson reflected. “Obviously, we’ve been very successful, and I love everybody I work with, and we have such great relationships, so I talked to them because I was like, ‘Guys, I need you to know what’s happening. … Like, it’s either I’m not going to be able to continue with the show, or I gotta go [to the] East Coast.

Kelly Clarkson says that being closer to her family in North Carolina and getting a fresh start were among the reasons she asked to move The Kelly Clarkson Show from Los Angeles to New York.
The singer and host of The Kelly Clarkson show recently appeared on TalkShopLive, where she opened up to Nancy O’Dell about her new album Chemistry and writing the post-divorce album. During the nearly 40-minute conversation, she also teased she may be bringing her talents to Broadway as she makes the move to the East Coast.
But it was around halfway through the interview when Clarkson answered a question about her decision to relocate the daytime show to New York. The move was announced earlier this May, with the singer and TV host now set to film in Studio 6A at NBC Studios at 30 Rockefeller Plaza.

The MTV Movie & TV Awards were forced to morph into what largely amounted to a clip show on Sunday as host Drew Barrymore had pulled out in solidarity with the WGA, and MTV scuttled plans for red carpet interviews and an in-person ceremony in order to to avoid run-ins with picketers (and lack of talent willing to show up).
The show that aired was largely made up of clips of memorable moments from past MTV Movie Awards ceremonies — everything from Jim Carrey accepting his award as Jim Morrison to Sacha Baron Cohen landing crotch-first into Eminem’s face after a “stunt gone wrong.” They even played Katy Perry and Snoop Dogg’s performance of “California Girl” from the 2010 show in full, just to fill some time.

Miranda Lambert’s first big break took place in 2003 when she was 19. She competed on a show called Nashville Star, and she finished in third place. Even though she didn’t win the competition, being on the show got her noticed by people in the music industry. And eventually, she got signed as a result. But even before she knew her fate in Nashville, Lambert was thankful she didn’t place first on the show. Here’s why.
Winners of ‘Nashville Star’ had to sing songs written by other people
Before Lambert went on Nashville Star, she’d already begun to sow the seeds of her career.
“I was writing songs and playing… I was playing bars in Texas for two and a half years before I even auditioned for Nashville Star,” she said on Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace? On HBO and CNN. ”So I had made a little independent record.

Oprah Winfrey has done thousands of interviews, but admits she was still surprised that Meghan Markle “went all the way there” during her March interview, wherein she accused members of the Royal Family of racism.
Winfrey was speaking on Nancy O’Dell’s new TalkShopLive streaming show about her March interview of the Sussexes, a chat which is still clouding the royal relationships and public attitudes toward Meghan and Harry.
“I had no idea that it would have the reverberating impact that it has had and continues to have,” Winfrey told O’Dell. “Our shared intention was the truth. They wanted to be able to tell their story and tell it in such a way that allowed them to be as truthful as possible.”
Yet even the veteran interviewer was taken aback when Markle claimed that the Royal Family was concerned with the potential skin color on her son, Archie.

People (the TV Show!) is eying an expansion. Sony Pictures Television has partnered with Meredith Corporation for the nationwide distribution of the new daily half-hour newsmagazine program inspired by the People brand, which features a combination of celebrity, entertainment, and human-interest stories.
Following Meredith Corp.’s $2.8 billion acquisition of Time Inc., Meredith in 2019 announced a daily syndicated show build around one of the newly bought magazine titles, People, to launch in the fall of 2020 on the 16 local TV stations owned by Meredith, which reach 11% of the country and cover markets like Atlanta, Phoenix, St. Louis, Portland, Or, and Nashville.

Instead of coming back as a show host, the 54-year-old Myrtle Beach native will now head the “Nancy O’Dell Interview,” which will be reserved for sit-downs with A-list celebrities. “I’ll get to interview some of the people that I’ve grown to know and love while being in the business for 25 years,” she said.

It feels like someone from the “Bachelor” franchise is on “Dancing with the Stars” every season, but in reality (no pun intended), there’s only been eight love-seeking folks who’ve hoofed it on the hardwood in 28 seasons. And Hannah Brown is just the second one to actually win the whole thing.
Here the “Bachelor” franchise track record on “Dancing”:
1. Trista Sutter: Season 1, sixth place (first eliminated)
2. Melissa Rycroft: Season 8, third place; Season 15, won
3. Jake Pavelka: Season 10, seventh place
4. Sean Lowe: Season 16, sixth place

The Visual Snow Initiative has concluded the first ever Visual Snow Conference which took place on May 5, 2018 at Ucsf.
Founded by Sierra Domb, the Visual Snow Initiative was created to bring attention to Visual Snow, a condition that affects all ages. Visual Snow is a brain disorder which has many visual and non-visual symptoms. The main indicator of Visual Snow is that people experience seeing the world through an overlay of tiny pixilated dots. These visual disturbances persist 24/7 with the eyes open or closed. The medical community is not yet fully educated on this condition. As a result, most people who suffer from Visual Snow are misdiagnosed or marginalized by well-intentioned but unknowing physicians.

"I had people stalking me who were head of studios. I was very young...At a time when it was just par for the course, and he was the head of 20th Century Fox."

Kerry Washington's got a legion of supporters in the Time's Up movement, but she's also got a pretty big one at home.
The Scandal star walked the red carpet at the Golden Globes on Sunday with her "hot date" of a husband, Nnamdi Asomugha, telling Et's Nancy O'Dell that while she was wearing black in solidarity with those experiencing sexual harassment and inequality in the workplace, her man was sporting a Time's Up pin.
"He has a Time's Up pin. He knows what time it is!" she yelled. "You gotta get a woke man, ladies. You gotta get a woke man!"
Washington has been involved in Time's Up "from the beginning," telling Et why she and other women in Hollywood decided to start the initiative after receiving a letter from female farm workers.
"These issues are not only issues in Hollywood. These are issues that are systematic. It's about systemic toxicity across all industries," she shared...

Kelly Clarkson is pulling no punches when it comes to educating her daughters about sexual harassment and assault.
"I'm real bold and blunt," she told Et's Nancy O'Dell on the Golden Globes red carpet on Sunday, referencing conversations she's had with her 16-year-old stepdaughter with husband Brandon Blackstock. The couple also shares a 3-year-old daughter, River Rose.
"I'm like, 'First of all, they'll say anything to get there,'" she began with a laugh.
"The men, you're talking about?" O'Dell countered.
"They'll say anything," Clarkson echoed. "And then, two," she continued, "just respect yourself and be bold in your own person, and then others will be forced to."
"Unfortunately, not everyone does, as we've found out," she added. "But I'm really excited to be a part of this solidarity movement tonight."
