Pink is stepping in as a guest host for The Kelly Clarkson Show.
The "So What" singer will be taking over as emcee of the Daytime Emmy-winning talk show for a full week beginning March 2. Her episodes will focus on celebrating the achievements of women in honor of Women's History Month.
"I've played stadiums and danced on the side of buildings, but stepping in to guest host for my girl Kelly Clarkson is a brand new feat," Pink said in a statement. "Let's celebrate women, joy, resilience and whatever else comes our way!"

Clarkson also expressed her excitement at Pink taking the reins of her show while she's away.
"The only thing that bums me out about Pink hosting a week of The Kelly Clarkson Show is that I'm not going to be able to be there to watch her," she said. "I have been a fan for so long and have always been inspired by her music and her person. I love her!"
Pink will fill in as host of The Kelly Clarkson Show for a week that specifically celebrates women who strive to make the world a better and brighter place. The episodes will include a mix of surprise performances, conversations with women in the entertainment industry, and segments spotlighting individuals who are making positive changes in their local communities.

The three-time Grammy winner previously joined Clarkson's talk show for one of its "Songs & Stories" episodes in 2023. The hourlong special, which has since been transformed into its own television show, saw the pair of singers perform a collection of Pink's greatest hits, including "Who Knew" and "What About Us."
As it turns out, a press release confirms that Pink is just the first of several guests who will be hosting the show in Clarkson's stead during the seventh and final season, which will officially come to a close this fall.

"This isn't goodbye," Clarkson explained in an Instagram post last week. "I'll still be making music, playing shows here and there and you may catch me on The Voice from time to time… you never know where I might show up next."
She added, "But for now, I want to thank y'all so much for allowing our show to be a part of your lives, and for believing in us and hanging with us for seven incredible years."
