Kelly Clarkson is making a change and breaking away from the west coast. The singer's daytime Emmy Award-winning talk show, which debuted in 2019, is heading to the Big Apple for its fifth season.
An NBCUniversal spokesperson confirmed to TODAY in a statement that The Kelly Clarkson Show will "film in the iconic studio 6A, former home for late night talk show hosts Jimmy Fallon, David Letterman and Conan O’Brien."
The spokesperson added, "The investment includes the cost of a new state-of-the-art studio, technical facility and support space."
From the program's new home to premiere date, here is everything we know so far about Season 5 of The Kelly Clarkson Show...
Where is The Kelly Clarkson Show taped?
Filming has taken place at the Universal Studios Lot in California since the show debuted in 2019. But starting in its fifth season, the show will be taped in New York.
Why is The Kelly Clarkson Show moving to New York?
According to TODAY, the move from Los Angeles to New York City is the result of New York’s Film Tax Credit. The NBCUniversal spokesperson explained that as "part of the program’s expansion, New York now provides an incentive to eligible television series that relocate to New York and reduces the eligibility requirements for talk and variety shows from five years of filming to two years of filming."
