This past week, the talk show host has become the subject of controversy after her opinion on a blackface costume. As the Inquisitr shared earlier today, Kelly was absent from her hour of the show after facing a ton of backlash following her comments that defended blackface Halloween costumes. Now, multiple sources have confirmed to People that Kelly’s hour of the show is being canceled.
“They’re contacting the staff and reassigning everyone today. Everyone’s being told that they still have a home here, but it won’t be on Megyn’s show. They haven’t made an official announcement about the show, but everyone knows what it means when they’re being moved somewhere else. The show is clearly over.”
According to Radar Online, the higher-ups at NBC are looking to have Kelly Clarkson replace Megyn Kelly on her hour of the show. Not only has Clarkson made multiple appearances on the hit morning show, but she also has a huge fan base, which is another reason why NBC execs think she’s a good replacement choice.

And according to one more source, Clarkson is also a solid choice to be Megyn’s replacement because she won’t be stirring up controversy like Kelly often did.
“Kelly is the most non-biased person on the planet, and does not have an ounce of racism in her.”
However, it seems like too little too late for Megyn if these reports do hold true.
