Kelly Clarkson’s talk show kicked off today – with an introduction from “The 40-Year-Old Virgin” himself, Steve Carell (via toofab)
"I'm so excited, y'all," the Texas native said as she kicked off the hour. "When I signed onto this show I was like, 'Is it possible for [Carell] to shout my name on the very first episode?' and it happened ... what is my life?!"
She continued her monologue by telling everyone she loves talking to people and is thrilled to have a job where she actually gets paid for it. She added that her show is all about "connections," saying "each of us has the power to make a profound impact on another person." Clarkson and Johnson then had a conversation about dealing with fame and how to try and remain grounded after hitting it big. "Fame is tricky. It can be very intoxicating to people," said Johnson. "I think what's helped me and my family is to just remember where I've come from and keeping the hard times I went through in the past in the forefront of my mind, to help lead and guide me.
Clarkson could relate: "Me too, running from the repo man, I did it. I parked my car at my friend's apartment, like, 'Shoot, I don't know where it went, someone stole my car!"After a break, Kelly introduced a segment called "Rad Human," in which she gives the spotlight to a do-gooder in need of a hand. For the premiere, she brought out a woman named Sharon Strauss, whose Sunshine Pantry in Oregon had recently closed due to a "lack of funding.
