Hosting The Kelly Clarkson Show is now a family affair — at least it was on Monday (March 2) for P!nk.
The “So What” singer is taking over the daytime talk show for the first week of Women’s History Month, and for the first episode of her stint, she brought along Willow Sage Hart, her 14-year-old daughter with husband Carey Hart.
Together, the mother-daughter duo did a very special Cameo-oke, a segment where the show’s guests cover a song without Kelly present. Both Broadway superfans, P!nk and Willow performed a beautiful rendition of “Hopeless War” from the 2024 Tony Award winner for best musical The Outsiders.
Keeping with the Broadway theme, P!nk and Willow also invited Glee and Maybe Happy Ending star Darren Criss and Grammy-winning Broadway legend Shoshana Bean to the show. Together, the group of four played a Broadway trivia game called “I Have to Know If You Know This Show!” It was mother vs. daughter, as Bean and Willow partnered up against Criss and P!nk and answered questions about shows like Grease, Wicked and Hadestown. Although Criss and P!nk put up a good fight, they ultimately lost to Willow and Bean.
The Cameo-oke performance with her daughter was not the only duet P!nk performed on Monday’s episode: After interviewing Bean about her new album Only Smoke, P!nk joined the Broadway star for a performance of her single “Let Me Believe.”
P!nk’s time on The Kelly Clarkson Show comes a month after Clarkson announced that the series would be ending after seven seasons. Despite rumors that P!nk would permanently take over the show, the “Raise Your Glass” singer shared in a now-deleted Instagram video that her stint on the show is a temporary thing and that hosting a talk show full-time is not something she has time for in her “busy, busy, busy world.”
The next episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show, also hosted by P!nk, will feature special guests Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox and Chloe Kim, airing Tuesday on NBC.
