Kelly Clarkson responds to report accusing her daytime talk show of being a toxic workplace
“As we prepare for a move to the East Coast, I am more committed than ever to ensuring that not only our team is moving, but also our new team in NY is comprised of the best and kindest in the business,” she said. “Part of that build will include leadership training for all of the senior staff, including myself.”
Clarkson said that there’s “always room to grow” and that she wants the show to be the “best version of ourselves in any business”.
“Especially when it comes to leadership, to ensure that any notion of toxicity is eradicated,” she said.
An NBC Universal spokesperson said in a statement that the entertainment corporation is “committed to a safe and respectful work environment”. The statement read that workplace complaints are taken “very seriously and to insinuate otherwise is untrue”.
“When issues are reported they are promptly reviewed, investigated and acted upon as appropriate,” the statement said.
“The Kelly Clarkson Show strives to build a safe, respectful and equitable workplace that nurtures a culture of inclusivity and creativity.”
