Tim Allen was on The Kelly Clarkson Show today, and she asked him about a photo he shared of himself with Bob Saget, Rodney Dangerfield, Jon Lovitz, and Robin Williams. The daytime talk show host wanted to know what was going on behind the snapshot.
The Last Man Standing told her that Mork doesn’t shut up, and the Man Who Got No Respect wasn’t getting any respect. As in, Dangerfield was trying to say something but Williams wouldn’t shut up long enough to let him talk. So Allen was laughing because he was waiting for Dangerfield to have a “nervous breakdown.” Which he didn’t have. Saget wanted to go eat at the buffet. And Lovitz wanted everyone to know he was Lovitz.
So if you ever wondered what comedians do when they meet up in person, now you know. And I wish I were a fly to hear what they were saying.
Blake Shelton, the last original Coach on The Voice, announced today that he is leaving NBC’s The Voice after next season.
“I’ve been wrestling with this for a while and I’ve decided that it’s time for me to step away from ‘The Voice’ after season 23,” Shelton said. “This show has changed my life in every way for the better and it will always feel like home to me. It’s been a hell of a ride over these 12 years of chair turns and I want to thank everyone at ‘The Voice’ from NBC, every producer, the writers, musicians, crew and catering people, you are the best. It takes a lot of work, passion, and adult beverages (Ha!) to pull off a live show twice a week. I’ve made lifelong bonds with Carson and every single one my fellow coaches over the years, including my wife, Gwen Stefani! I have to give a huge shoutout to the singers – the ‘Voices’ who come on this stage season after season and amaze us with their talent and a special thanks to those who chose me to be their coach. Lastly, it’s about y’all, the fans, who watch and support these artists, us coaches and everyone at ‘The Voice’ chasing their dreams. It wouldn’t happen without you!”
I never thought he would leave. But I guess now that he is married, it is time for him to stay home, raise his spouse’s kids and take care of the farm.
His departure makes you wonder if the show can continue without him. Especially since the last few new Coaches have not been that exciting. This season they added Camila Cabello, and next season Chance the Rapper and Niall Horan will join Shelton and Kelly Clarkson in the big red chairs.
It really sounds like they might want to give the singing competition its swan song unless they can woo Adam Levine back like he woos girls in their DMs. Too soon?
Lin-Manuel Miranda was on The Kelly Clarkson Show today, and they talked about Encanto again. He told her he met a kid named Bruno a week before the film came out. As soon as the boy told the EGOT his name, he apologized to the little guy.
I think the songwriter personally needs to apologize to anyone named Bruno or anyone who has heard the earworm of the tune.
BTW We Don’t Talk About Bruno almost didn’t happen. That is because the character’s name was originally Oscar. Too bad that name was so popular. Because otherwise, we wouldn’t all be singing the song for the rest of the day. I mean, We Don’t Talk about Oscar isn’t as catchy.
Kelly Clarkson starts every episode of her talk show with a cover of someone else’s songs. So she was asked to do one of the most iconic songs. That tune is Dolly Parton’s 9 to 5 for the documentary Still Working 9 to 5
Since I like the American Idol, I gave her the benefit of the doubt. Boy, did I make a mistake because her take sucks. And not in a My Life Would Suck Without You way of sucking.
I wish we could tie up the record like Dolly Parton, Lily Tomlin, and Jane Fonda tied up Dabney Colman in their 1980 movie.
Do you feel the same way, or do you want to go all Simon Cowell on the singer?
Anne Hathaway was on The Kelly Clarkson Show, and the host had a very important question for the actress. Clarkson heard that her guest eats cupcakes differently than you and me.
How does Hathaway eat them? She peels off the liner, splits the cupcake in two, and puts the frosting in the middle to make a little sandwich. This way, she says that you don’t get the best part up your nose.
But then you get too much cake and not enough frosting. So, when I eat one, I eat the sugary sweetness first and throw out the rest because the cake is bland, like the Oscar winner.
