Pop star Kelly Clarkson is too busy to tour
Kelly Clarkson's TV talk show has stopped her from touring in recent years.
The 43-year-old pop star has hosted 'The Kelly Clarkson Show' since 2019, and the chart-topping singer recently acknowledged that the talk show has hindered her music career.
Speaking to her fans during a rare performance in Atlantic City, Kelly explained: "We haven't done a show in a while, y'all, 'cause I have a talk show. It's like a whole other job."
The Grammy-winning star actually relished performing at Hard Rock Live at Etess Arena. But Kelly admitted that she's simply too busy with her talk show and her family life to embark on a tour.
The 'Since U Been Gone' hitmaker - who has Remington, nine, and River, ten, with ex-husband Brandon Blackstock - said: "We are bummed 'cause we love doing shows, and it's hard to fit it in, so it's cool when it does work out with the schedule. And it's cool to get to see your faces and feed off y'all. Thank you so much for having so much energy."
Meanwhile, Kelly recently admitted that she's firmly focused on raising her kids, rather than looking for love.
The pop star - who was married to Brandon between 2013 and 2022 - insisted that her children are her number one priority in life, meaning that she simply doesn't have time to date at the moment.
Kelly said on 'Today with Jenna and Friends': "I'm running from my show to baseball practice and I'm trying to be just there.
"It's a lot. My mom will tell me, 'Look, I was a single mom. I didn't get to make everything. They're gonna be fine. You turned out fine.'"
Despite this, Kelly was able to look forward to performing two shows in Atlantic City over the weekend.
The singer - who rose to fame as the inaugural winner of 'American Idol' in 2002 - said: "I am just trying to be there as much for them [as possible] and we're a cute little unit. I am trying to adult more.
"So for Mother's Day weekend I do have a couple shows, but my kids aren't coming. So I do get to be an adult with my band having drinks and having adult time."

Secret of Clint Eastwood's success: do something new
Hollywood star Clint Eastwood urged fellow filmmakers to come up with new ideas as he approaches his 95th birthday this weekend, observing in a newspaper interview that the movie business is now full of remakes and franchises. Oscar-winning director Eastwood told Austrian newspaper Kurier he planned to keep working, saying that he was still in good physical shape and hopeful that no one would have to worry about him in that regard "for a long time yet". Eastwood's most recent film, legal drama Juror#2, came out in the United States in 2024 and the newspaper said he was currently in the pre-production phase for another movie. The star of movies such as Dirty Harry and The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, and director of dozens of films including Unforgiven and Million Dollar Baby, was asked for his view on the current state of the film industry, "I long for the good old days when screenwriters wrote movies like Casablanca in small bungalows on the studio lot. When everyone had a new idea," according to the German text of the interview published on Friday. "We live in an era of remakes and franchises. I've shot sequels three times, but I haven't been interested in that for a long while. My philosophy is: do something new or stay at home," added Eastwood, who will turn 95 on Saturday. Asked where he got his energy from, Eastwood said: "There's no reason why a man can't get better with age. And I have much more experience today. Sure, there are directors who lose their touch at a certain age, but I'm not one of them." Eastwood, who made World War II thriller Where Eagles Dare in Austria with Welsh actor Richard Burton in the late 1960s, told the paper the secret to his success was that he had always tried something new as a director and an actor. "As an actor, I was still under contract with a studio, was in the old system, and thus forced to learn something new every year," he said. "And that's why I'll work as long as I can still learn something, or until I'm truly senile."
