In a potential shake-up at NBC, the network is considering Pink as a contender to take over Kelly Clarkson’s talk show slot, as Clarkson plans to step away this fall.

According to a source who spoke with TMZ, the popular singer is being seen as a strong candidate to helm the hour-long daytime show. Her natural charisma and approachable demeanor are qualities that reportedly make her an ideal fit for the role.

Insiders within NBC describe Pink as “super nice and easy to work with,” emphasizing that the show maintains a strict no-tolerance policy for difficult personalities. This reputation aligns well with Pink’s friendly and down-to-earth nature, making her a favorite among those rooting for her to step into the talk show arena.

Adding to the speculation, Pink is scheduled to guest host Clarkson’s show next week, starting on Monday. This opportunity will serve as a trial run of sorts, showcasing her potential as a talk show host.

During a recent cameo on the show, Pink playfully admitted to Clarkson that taking on a hosting role is “way outside my wheelhouse,” hinting at both her excitement and the challenge ahead.

“This is way outside my wheelhouse,” she told the “American Idol” alum during a cameo on Friday.

Clarkson announced earlier this month that she’ll be ending her show this fall, following its seventh season, in order to prioritize her kids, “which feels necessary and right for this chapter of our lives,” she said.

Her decision follows the summer 2025 death of her ex-husband and former manager, Brandon Blackstock, with whom she shared daughter River, 11, and son Remington, 9.

News of the Pink’s potential pivot comes amid a busy week for the pop star, who was nominated Wednesday as part of this year’s class for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees.

On Thursday, she shut down new reports that she had separated from her husband, Carey Hart, after 20 years of marriage.

Pink and the 50-year-old motocross alum — with whom she shares daughter Willow, 14, and son Jameson, 9 — previously split in 2008 but reconciled the following year.

Pink acknowledged in 2024 that she and Hart “almost didn’t make it to” their 18th wedding anniversary — “well a couple of them, if I’m being honest” — but was proud to say they’d “made it to the other side of this year.”

At the end of last year, the singer sparked speculation by telling her followers she was spending New Year’s Eve alone in the hospital awaiting neck surgery, all while her family was “happily” away snowboarding.

She added that 2025 had been marked by saying “goodbye” to some “incredibly important people,” but didn’t specify who was included in that group.
