Kelly Clarkson joins the Las Vegas residency club

Kelly Clarkson, who just launched her own talk show, “The Kelly Clarkson Show” on NBC, has another gig to add to her resume. In 2020, she’ll begin a residency in Las Vegas. Clarkson will perform at the Zappos Theater inside Planet Hollywood.

“I have so many jobs going on right now and they all involve me being located in L.A. I love everything I’m doing, but the one thing that bummed me out was that I am so busy I’m not able to tour. Vegas was the perfect option for me to still be able to do shows and play music and see the fans,” she told Billboard.com.

Clarkson says she’s excited to take advantage of performing on a single stage, instead of touring. She says she loves the enthusiasm and energy of audiences in Las Vegas.

“I’ve always loved performing in Las Vegas and the high energy of the crowds. Musicians from every genre of music, young and old, rookies and legends, it’s just become this fantastic city filled with artists from everywhere. So many of my musical idols have had, and still have, incredible residencies on the Strip, and I’m so excited to create my own,” Clarkson says. “We literally could only fit in the amount of dates that are available because my schedule is so crazy but I hope to have more dates in the future.”
