Kelly Clarkson and Ellen in a sketch from The Ellen Degeneres Show |
Alex Duda has been named executive producer for “The Kelly Clarkson Show,” which debuts in national syndication next fall. The one-hour show, hosted by Clarkson will debut in September 2019. Among her many credits, Duda previously served as executive producer of the Emmy-winning series “Steve Harvey” as well as the Emmy-winning program “The Tyra Banks Show.”
“The Kelly Clarkson Show” will use Clarkson’s gift of connection to bring viewers a fun, energetic show that breaks with tradition. Each weekday Clarkson will bring together a fascinating guest list of people, from all walks of life, to come hang out together, share remarkable stories and maybe have “a minute and a glass of wine” (as she likes to say). Audiences will experience an hour full of humor, heart, unscripted surprises, celebrity guests and of course, great music.
From Los Angeles, “The Kelly Clarkson Show” is produced and distributed by NBCUniversal Domestic Television Distribution with Alex Duda serving as executive producer and showrunner. Clarkson and Brandon Blackstock are also executive producers.
It was previously announced that the “The Kelly Clarkson Show” has been sold to the NBC Owned Television Station group. The show will air as the lead-in to “Ellen” on the following NBC-owned television stations: WNBC New York, KNBC Los Angeles, WMAQ Chicago, WCAU Philadelphia, KXAS Dallas-Fort Worth, KNTV San Francisco, WRC Washington DC, WTVJ Miami, KNSD San Diego and WVIT Hartford. The new show will also air in Boston on NBC-owned station WBTS.
