Kelly Clarkson’s Return to Show Sparks Rumors After Unexplained Absence
The Kelly Clarkson Show recently celebrated its 1000th episode, marking Kelly Clarkson’s return after a brief, unexplained absence. However, the celebration has been overshadowed by speculation regarding Clarkson’s behavior since her return.
Unnamed sources have reported a “dramatic change” in the 42-year-old singer. While previously described as warm and engaging with staff, some now claim a tense atmosphere has settled over the set.
One source recalled Clarkson’s prior approachable nature, stating she would “stand at your desk and just talk,” inquiring about their lives and families. This source contrasted that behavior with the current “weird vibe,” leaving staff “walking on eggshells.”
However, another source close to the show has refuted these claims, stating that Clarkson is “back to herself” and things are “relatively back to normal.”
These new concerns arrive on the heels of previous allegations of a toxic work environment on The Kelly Clarkson Show. In 2023, reports surfaced detailing a stressful atmosphere detrimental to employees’ mental health.
While Clarkson herself was not implicated in those allegations, they focused on the behavior of a producer. The reemergence of concerns about the show’s atmosphere has understandably heightened anxieties among staff.
