While Clarkson was not able to make it to the June 24 ceremony, the former coach from NBC’s The Voice did share a video reacting to the show’s nine nominations in May 2022.
Clarkson’s talk show launched in September 2019 and has earned dozens of awards since its inception.
The award-winning singer and TV personality recently revealed that she “taking a break” from her career this summer to spend time with her kids at her Montana ranch. Clarkson has two children, River Rose and Remington Alexander, who she shares with ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock.
During an interview with E! Red Carpet & Award Shows‘ Elise Edwards, Clarkson shared “for the first time since I was 16 years old, I am taking my summer off.”
“And, it’s one of those things, I was like, I feel bad ’cause things come up, but, at some point, you know you just gotta be able to like set the dates and say, ‘nothing will interfere with this time,’” Clarkson explained. “‘Cause it’s precious, and especially for a single working mom, like it’s exhausting, you go to work and you come home, and you’re constantly on, like doing something, and it’s nice, you know, I’m just gonna have time with my kids out on my ranch in Montana and we’re just gonna be doing nothing.”
Clarkson went on to say that her kids also have “crazy schedules,” and though taking a break will be weird, she’s “not doing anything” over the summer.
