Singer turned talk show host, Kelly Clarkson likes to be casual on her show. She does not wear shoes or slippers while doing the show. But this practice has upset some of those around her in the show. It is a matter of image and hygiene and also of tolerating her stingy feet.
Kelly Clarkson and her barefoot habit
American singer and songwriter and TV personality, Kelly Clarkson, 42 has this habit of remaining barefoot on her talk show. She wears no slippers or shoes while shooting. She is exempted from wearing shoes or slippers and NBC has allowed her to walk around the studio barefoot.
But not all around her like it. An insider told National Enquirer:
“Kelly’s barefoot habit has become a hot topic behind the scenes,”
Further, the source elaborated:
“It’s not just about hygiene, it’s about maintaining a certain image.”
“You wouldn’t catch anyone else flaunting bare feet inside NBC — but SHE gets away with it,”
Stinkiness of Kelly’s feet
The singer prefers to keep her feet uncovered in order to air them. She prefers to be casual on the sets of her talk show. Kelly even performs barefoot. She has no problems due to it, but those working with her have to bear the stench of her feet and are complaining about it.
Kelly even allows her dogs without leashes on the show. Talking about it, another insider explained:
“Kelly’s all about creating a laid-back, comfortable vibe for her audience,”
“She wants viewers to feel at home, like they can just kick off their own shoes and relax along with her.”
NBC clarified that Kelly is barefoot only on the sets and not outside. Another insider defended her habit:
“Let’s not get carried away here,”
“She’s not traipsing around the entire building without shoes — but there’s definitely tension brewing over this.”
Professionalism vs comfort
Kelly wants to do her work comfortably. Shoes or slippers seem to create discomfort for her and hence she avoids them on the sets. The last source revealed:
“The clash between professionalism and casual comfort is real!”
But this habit is not new for Kelly. She has performed barefoot even at the White House. There is an old video of hers giving a performance in barefoot. Additionally, in February 2021, Kelly posted a selfie video on her X account. It was taken at the White House when she interviewed the First Lady Jill Biden. In this video, Kelly did a brief tour of the White House and latter panned the camera down to her shoeless feet. She said at that time:
“We are here! Yeah!”
“And now, time for the exit. The abrupt exit to the entrance — and I am literally barefoot.”
Earlier, the host has revealed the reason that she goes barefoot on the show. She has said:
“I ditched the shoes because mama’s feet hurt.”
“There’s a lot of marble floors and stone floors, like my feet were killing me!”
