Clarkson channeled her inner “The Boss” for the performance while Esten followed her on an acoustic guitar and provided backing vocals. After the two wrapped up the song, Clarkson used the opportunity to say Esten is “one of the nicest humans you’re ever going to meet.”

 “People always talk about how rotten people can be. People can be awesome too — that’s Charles,” she told the audience.

Bruce Springsteen released “Glory Days” as the fifth single from his iconic 1985 album Born in the U.S.A. The track was met with a positive response from the audience, earning platinum status in the United States while also peaking at No. 5 on US Billboard Hot 100 charts.

Kelly Clarkson is no stranger to signing Born in the U.S.A. songs on her show. Back in 2020, Clarkson also covered “Dancing in the Dark,” the album’s first single and arguably its biggest hit.

Clarkson’s residency will take place between April 1st and September 26th, 2020 at Planet Hollywood’s Zappos Theater. She announced the news during a recent episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show and treated each member of the audience to a pair of tickets and a free stay and dinner at Planet Hollywood.

Since she’s currently busy hosting her own daily talk show and serving as a coach on The Voice, Clarkson saw her Vegas residency as a perfect opportunity to reunite with her fans without having to travel from one city to another every night.

“I love everything I’m doing, but the one thing that bummed me out was that I am so busy I’m not able to tour. Vegas was the perfect option for me to still be able to do shows and play music and see the fans,” the singer told Billboard.

Clarkson delivered a sassy rendition of “Juice” during the September 30th episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show. Her audience cheered and clapped as she showed us how versatile she is with a flawless delivery of this empowering anthem that had everyone in the studio dancing along.

The Kelly Clarkson Show premiered on September 9th on NBC, and immediately became a huge hit for this network. It scored the highest-rated premiere week in seven years, and the viewership numbers have been impressive ever since.

The Kellyoke segment quickly became one of the fan favorites, and it sees the singer opening the show with audience-requested covers of popular songs. The list of tracks she performed so far also includes “Bad Romance” by Lady Gaga, “Till the World Ends” by Britney Spears and “Sucker” by Jonas Brothers.

“17 years ago, I would have never thought that the show would have had the impact—look at what it did! The domino effect is crazy,” said Clarkson, who was the first-ever winner of American Idol and went on to become a best-selling singer and a TV personality.

Shedding his trademark cynicism, Cowell replied: “I actually genuinely do not believe we would be sitting here today if you hadn’t entered the show.” He later added that while they got to know many great singers that the first season, what they really needed was someone who would sell lots of records, and that someone turned out to be Clarkson.

Clarkson herself revealed she wasn’t even aware that she was auditioning for a TV show when she first stood before the three judges. She said her apartment had just burned down and she was living in her car for several days before the audition. 

Clarkson’s original audition is definitely worth rewatching; at 20 years old, wearing a shirt made of an old pair of pants she had designed herself, the young Kelly Clarkson immediately took over the audition room and showed us exactly why she would go on to become America’s first American Idol.

She went on to add: “I love that when I started to do country, they were like, ‘Oh you’re pop. You’re not country enough.’ I’m like, ‘I’m sorry, let me show you this list of the Top 20,’ which by the way did not include one female.”

Clarkson continued to opine that women country singers are treated unfairly and are played less often than their male counterparts: “Y’all don’t play people with boobs either, it’s fine. ‘Oh you got boobs, you’re not a man, we can’t play you, get out of here.’ What happened? The ’90s were filled [with female country singers]”. 

“What is happening in country music? This is what’s happening. Y’all aren’t playing country music anymore,” she concluded.

“The Kelly Clarkson Show” is set to launch this fall on NBC, after being sold to more than 200 stations, including the top 165 markets. This exciting program is scheduled for a September 9 premiere, and it will be taped in front of a live audience at the Universal Studios in L.A.

NBC has been plotting this show for months, and NBC Entertainment representative Paul Telegdy expressed his confidence in Clarkson’s ability to bring joy into the lives of their viewers.

“The incomparable Kelly Clarkson takes everything she touches to another level and we couldn’t be happier to bring her talent, humor, generosity and compassion to daytime next year. ‘The Kelly Clarkson Show’ will have something for everyone,” said Telegdy.

Clarkson was equally excited about this brand-new adventure. She described it as her dream job, because she enjoys connecting with people and finding new ways to entertain them and give back.
