4 Country Stars Who Could Replace Kelly Clarkson’s Talk Show

Kelly Clarkson reportedly wants to walk away (pun intended) from her daytime talk show, but who could replace her?

The American Idol alum reportedly wants to spend more time with her two children—daughter River Rose, 10, and son Remy, 8—whom she shares with ex-husband Brandon Blackstock.

"Kelly’s No. 1 priority is her children, and they always will be," an insider told Page Six, adding: "The show is grueling. It’s a whole lot of work and I hear that Kelly would like to spend more time down South."

Although we don't want to see the "Since U Been Gone" singer leave our TV screens anytime soon, we do have some ideas for country singers who could fit into the vocal powerhouse's daytime TV shoes.

Dolly Parton Is an Obvious Choice to Brighten Up Our Day

Dolly Parton is a global icon, and nearly everyone loves the country queen.

Her inimitable career spans decades, and the stories she could tell—and secrets she could spill—would undoubtedly captivate a daily audience.

Parton herself has admitted she will never retire from showbiz, but she has started to slow down when it comes to concert performances, so a more relaxed TV gig could be perfect for the "Jolene" singer.

He's a little bit—well, a lot—country, and she's a little bit rock 'n' roll. When combined, that makes them one of America's favorite couples.

Shelton is naturally funny and a prankster, which would keep things interesting, while Stefani's warmth and diverse career make them ideal co-hosts.

Reba McEntire Is No Stranger to TV

Reba McEntire is a pro when it comes to lighting up a TV screen.

The country legend first captivated audiences on her beloved sitcom, Reba, and years later she's doing it again on her new show, Happy's Place. She's also a coach on NBC's The Voice.

The "Fancy" singer is used to singing a variety of songs and would no doubt put a fun new spin on the fan-favorite "Kellyoke" segment.

Jelly Roll and Bunnie XO Are Couple Goals

Jelly Roll and influencer Bunnie XO tied the knot in 2016 after meeting at one of his shows in Las Vegas.

The playful and candid lovebirds have been open about their struggles with fertility, which is relatable to a daytime TV audience.

Jelly Roll has also been honest about his issues with addiction and his time spent in jail, as well as how his struggles have shaped his life.

These two are made for TV, and even if Kelly Clarkson doesn't walk away, they should start their own talk show.

BONUS: Jessica Simpson Is Already a TV Darling

Jessica Simpson is a bona fide TV darling (remember Newlyweds?). The singer has proven that the camera loves her, and she knows how to be effortlessly entertaining.

The pop-turned-country star is unpredictable, and you never know what's gonna come out of her mouth—and that's exactly what daytime TV needs.
