Kelly Clarkson Closes Out Her Talk Show with a 'Golden' Send-Off

The American Idol vet wrapped her talk show run with the cover that broke the internet.

Kelly Clarkson taped the final episode of her talk show this week, and naturally, she went out doing what she does best—singing somebody else's song better than they probably expected. She performed "Golden," the track from Kpop Demon Hunters, which happens to be the most-requested "Kellyoke" cover in the entire run of the show.

It's a fitting way to close the book on a talk show that built a whole segment around Clarkson's gift for reinterpreting other people's work. That wasn't just filler—her covers became genuinely appointment TV, with viewers tuning in specifically to see what she'd tackle next.

So there it is: the final chapter comes down to what made the show work in the first place—Clarkson's voice, a song that resonated with people, and no pretension about it. Sometimes the best way to say goodbye is to remind folks why they showed up in the first place.
