“American Idol” alum Kelly Clarkson‘s daughter is learning the ropes of the TV business, it seems, stepping into a producer role on “The Kelly Clarkson Show.” Watch 10-year-old River take charge!
Kelly Clarkson’s Daughter River Rose Works on Her Mom’s Show
During the April 2 episode of “The Kelly Clarkson Show,” Clarkson’s daughter River Rose took on the producer task — and didn’t shy away from the challenge.
River Rose was on hand to shadow showrunner Alex Duda. “My daughter is here today,” Clarkson told the audience.
“Oh my God! You have a mic and everything! You’re so fancy!” she said to River Rose. “Oh my God. I love it. You’re like a little mini producer.”
Clarkson added, “So she’s been to all the meetings this morning like an adult. Yes, she’s very professional, she told us.”
Guest Whitney Cummings said she asked her behind the scenes, “What is the thing that annoys your mom the most?”
The singer answered, “Is it when she calls me Kelly?”
When Cummings said “Yes,” Clarkson gave her daughter a look, and River Rose responded with a smile.
River Rose instructed her mom to wrap up the conversation and go to a commercial break before Clarkson could elaborate on the pet peeve. “Mommy should be on break,” her daughter said. The singer responded, “Whatever! Whatever!”
Cummings interjected, “Mommy should be on break, but guest needs a lot of attention, River.”
Then Clarkson suddenly understood what her daughter was trying to tell her. “I just got what she [said] — it says ‘break’! I thought you said, ‘Mommy needs a break,’ and I thought, ‘That’s so kind,'” Clarkson said.
She continued, “But no, she’s telling me that I need to go to break. That’s cool. I got a leader!”
The “American Idol” alum added, “She’s gonna rule the world one day, y’all.”
She then turned to the camera and noted, “Okay, we need a quick break, apparently.”
Kelly Clarkson’s Daughter & Son Appeared on the Show in January
Clarkson’s kids appeared together on the January 8 episode of the talk show. Her son Remy discussed how a video of his rendition of Frank Sinatra’s “My Way” went viral.
He explained, “I heard it from ‘Sing’ and I love that movie. And I just like that song.”
River Rose said she couldn’t “even count how many times” she had heard the song at home.
Clarkson’s daughter also said she sings and writes songs. “I put that together in a journal that I forgot at home because I am a forgetter in my family,” she said. “But I do that a lot in my room, and I spend hours and hours and hours singing [and] trying to do a song.”
