Rumors swirled that Singer Pink would step in as the new host of the Kelly Clarkson show after its seventh season wraps up.
But sources close to the situation say those reports are just fantasy.
The 46-year-old star recently guest hosted a few episodes, sparking all the buzz.
A media insider revealed to journalist Rob Schueter that the whole syndication model for daytime TV is,
fading away. NBC Universal recently announced they're pulling the plug on several first-run shows,
including Access Hollywood, Access Live, the Steve Wilco show, and Caramo. Stations across the country
are shifting gears. They no longer want pricey talk shows that demand big budgets. Instead,
they're opting for cheaper local programs, more newsblocks, or content that's easy to stream
online. Pink herself shut down the speculation and a quick social media video,
from Poolside with her 14-year-old daughter, Willow.
She made it clear she's only filling in as a one-off favor for her friend Kelly Clarkson,
the 43-year-old host.
The singer emphasized her pack schedule leaves no room for a full-time gig like that.
If she wanted her own show, she'd just make one happen without any auditions.
For now, it's back to her music and family life.
