Speaker 1: I feel for Kelly Clarkson what she's doing in doing
Speaker 1: that talk show when she's going through a legal battle
Speaker 1: with her ex husband, her ex leech suction Cup, emasculated,
Speaker 1: intimidated by her success and being the moneyed spouse.
Speaker 2: Woman. I feel for her.
Speaker 1: She has to go there and do a talk show
Speaker 1: every day, which is so much pressure and so many
Speaker 1: people on you from the minute you get there, with
Speaker 1: all these things that you have to do. She's a
Speaker 1: mother and she's dealing with this situation, and I relate
Speaker 1: to it. I really really do, like I feel her
Speaker 1: through headlines. She is a sweet girl. She didn't come
Speaker 1: from money, so she made it and was overly trusting,
Speaker 1: and she likely fell in love at a time when
Speaker 1: she just wanted to feel supported because there was so
Speaker 1: much coming at her and she had success flying in
Speaker 1: the door at rapid warp speeds.
Speaker 2: She probably not.
Speaker 1: Probably she definitely wasn't equipped to handle it emotionally, mentally, physically, financially, psychologically, spiritually.
Speaker 2: So she marries a guy, and.
Speaker 1: Of course he's gonna come in and of course he's
Speaker 1: going to manage her, and he's gonna support her career
Speaker 1: and help her, and it's you know, ultimately it's the
Speaker 1: Kelly Show. It is the Kelly Show. She's the one
Speaker 1: who's making the gold and she's the machine. She's the
Speaker 1: golden goose laying the eggs. They have babies. He probably
Speaker 1: feels emasculated. She feels like she's overcompensating to make him
Speaker 1: not feel emasculated. She's including him in more parts of
Speaker 1: her career, and despite the fact that she knows that
Speaker 1: that's the wrong decision. But the game is moving too
Speaker 1: quickly and she isn't careful because of course she trusts him.
Speaker 1: And she's a small town girl who meets a guy
Speaker 1: that she thinks has the best intentions. And maybe they
Speaker 1: were madly in love. I'm sure they were. Maybe he's jilted,
Speaker 1: maybe something happened. How could I possibly know? It doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: And now she's a tough, badass bitch that has been
Speaker 1: relentless with I don't know who her lawyers are, but
Speaker 1: who has been relentless with getting what is either actually
Speaker 1: owed to her or just not getting fucked, or just
Speaker 1: not allowing him to just do a smash and grab job,
Speaker 1: which is why this is lasting years. Hallie Barry had
Speaker 1: a shit show divorce which lasted a long time. I
Speaker 1: had a divorce that lasted ten years. And you know what,
Speaker 1: Kelly Clarkson is the not fucking around crew. He probably
Speaker 1: underestimated her, and you don't succeed at a talk show
Speaker 1: at that level and win American Idol and come up
Speaker 1: the way that she has with Grace and with her
Speaker 1: staff respecting and liking her. From what I understand, she's
Speaker 1: completely talented. And the one thing that she hasn't been
Speaker 1: able to control in her career from a business standpoint
Speaker 1: is this situation with her ex, because he is trying
Speaker 1: to fuck her in death by a thousand paper cuts,
Speaker 1: and she's not taking the fucking that he's trying to
Speaker 1: give her, and she's given it right back to him.
Speaker 2: And she will get stronger.
Speaker 1: She will eventually get this whole thing behind her where
Speaker 1: it feels clean, like it doesn't feel like they're entanglement
Speaker 1: and legal letters that she has to read, and every
Speaker 1: single time she gets an email from her lawyer and
Speaker 1: it has an attachment, she wants to throw up. And
Speaker 1: every time something good happened, she gets excited, but she
Speaker 1: doesn't realize that that's going to be another six months.
Speaker 1: And I guarantee you that she's spent if I had
Speaker 1: to guess, I don't know how many years it's been.
Speaker 2: It sounds like it's been at least five years.
Speaker 1: She's spent at least one and a half to two
Speaker 1: million dollars of her own money just on legal just
Speaker 1: to not get entirely fucked because the system is totally broken.
Speaker 1: And she is a woman with money, and she's sitting
Speaker 1: there saying, wait a second, I have money, and I
Speaker 1: have a presence, and I have a power, and I'm
Speaker 1: powerless because if someone wants to fuck you over and
Speaker 1: fuck with your life as their job, and someone wants
Speaker 1: to steal from you and make your life a living hell,
Speaker 1: because it's the only power in control that they've ever
Speaker 1: been able to have over you, because in their life
Speaker 1: they've never been able to have any power or control
Speaker 1: over anything, and this is the one thing that they
Speaker 1: can do. And also, you're a public figure, so you
Speaker 1: have to be a little bit more careful and tread
Speaker 1: a little bit more lightly. And she's a strong bitch
Speaker 1: and she's not gonna let this guy fuck her. And
Speaker 1: one day when it's all done, because she's in the
Speaker 1: middle of a golf game right now, she doesn't know
Speaker 1: what hole she's at now that she has this new
Speaker 1: legal action. She could be, you know, at the twelfth hole.
Speaker 1: She could go back to the seventh hole. She could
Speaker 1: be at the sixteenth hole. I get the sense that
Speaker 1: she's towards the end. But once this thing is done,
Speaker 1: she can breathe. And that's why when she's asked by
Speaker 1: Hoda if she's ready to date, she's like, fuck no,
Speaker 1: because the last thing she wants to do is get
Speaker 1: involved with a man. The last thing she wants to
Speaker 1: do is trust a man, even if it's rational, even
Speaker 1: if it's the Dalai Lama. She is not in a
Speaker 1: position to be trusting, and she doesn't trust her instincts
Speaker 1: because there's no way that she could have made a
Speaker 1: mistake and misjudged so greatly when she's so successful in
Speaker 1: so many other areas of her life. And men, sometimes
Speaker 1: many times in divorce, want to exert their power over
Speaker 1: a woman, particularly when she's the one who is the breadwinner,
Speaker 1: when she's the one who has made the money and
Speaker 1: made the rules and has the power because men traditionally
Speaker 1: always have the power, So it's shake ex up the
Speaker 1: whole system when a woman has the power and a
Speaker 1: man's supposed to be the quote unquote man. Well, tough shit.
Speaker 1: It's twenty twenty four. Kelly Clarkson is a queen, and
Speaker 1: fuck that guy. And I will say with great certainty,
Speaker 1: I don't know anything about that guy. I don't even
Speaker 1: know his name. I don't know literally anything about him
Speaker 1: except that I've seen pictures of him and I read
Speaker 1: the headlines. But I truly, from the bottom of my soul,
Speaker 1: believe that I know what's going on. And Kelly Clarkson
Speaker 1: can correct me if I'm wrong. She can just say
Speaker 1: in the media incorrect. But I think I've got it
Speaker 1: pretty close. I think I've got it pretty fucking close.
Speaker 1: And I don't know a damn thing about this guy,
Speaker 1: but I think I know a lot. Whatever Megan Markle
Speaker 1: is doing with her instagum right now the American Riviera
Speaker 1: Orchard is smart.
Speaker 2: It is smart. They went quiet for a while.
Speaker 1: They have spent time in their home and nested and
Speaker 1: embedded in the US and befriended many, many powerful celebrities
Speaker 1: in the community where they live, and it seems like
Speaker 1: she's starting some sort of a lifestyle brand. She used
Speaker 1: to have something called the tig and now it's feeling
Speaker 1: more upscale, elegant, royal. She's combining her celebrity because she's
Speaker 1: now a Hollywood you know, person who lives in Montecito
Speaker 1: near Oprah and Ellen and hangs out with Chris Jenner
Speaker 1: and Corey Gamble and the Kardashians, and she's combining that
Speaker 1: with the royal acumen, you know, the royal credibility, the
Speaker 1: royal stamp, the royal connection to Harry, which elevates it
Speaker 1: and is doing I guess, a more royal and sophisticated
Speaker 1: Monacito celebrity lifestyle brand that is kind of like another
Speaker 1: version of Goop. So that's a brilliant model that's like
Speaker 1: a Martha Stewart model, a Gwyneth Paltrow model. Rachel Ray
Speaker 1: had one which was more like, you know, woman for
Speaker 1: the people. It's just a very smart decision for her.
Speaker 1: And they'll be recipes and they'll be fashion and they'll
Speaker 1: be home and I think it's very smart. And they'll
Speaker 1: be products, they'll be links to products, and she'll make
Speaker 1: a lot of money. It just goes to show that
Speaker 1: the line. Lauren Michaels once said to me, you have
Speaker 1: to make an exit. To be able to make an
Speaker 1: entrance is true. And I don't mean exiting the royal family. Yes,
Speaker 1: that too.
Speaker 2: I guess that was an abrupt exit. And this is
Speaker 2: a well.
Speaker 1: Timed entrance in the midst of all the Cape Middleton drama.
Speaker 1: But I think the exit is going quiet like not.
Speaker 1: They were very public for a while, just the book,
Speaker 1: the Netflix, the interview, the everything.
Speaker 2: And now to have gone quiet. This is making an entrance.
Speaker 1: So in life, whether you are a celebrity or a
Speaker 1: mere civilian or a royal, it's good to make an exit,
Speaker 1: take a time out, and then make an entrance. And
Speaker 1: that's not always easy because other people around you.
Speaker 2: You have obligations to need you.
Speaker 1: Producing, churning, doing whatever it is that they need you
Speaker 1: to do. So it's easier said than done. But they
Speaker 1: I think they've done it. What if Kate Middleton's home relaxing, resting, recovering,
Speaker 1: and maybe they have something going on in their personal lives,
Speaker 1: but that's their personal lives. And maybe she did have
Speaker 1: a procedure, which she told us she had a procedure,
Speaker 1: and they told us in the morning meeting that they'd
Speaker 1: be back at Easter, So maybe they're going to be
Speaker 1: back at Easter, like face value, what about that? They
Speaker 1: are the don't complain, don't explain family that's been asked
Speaker 1: and answered. They had a botched photo, so they had
Speaker 1: to address that because that was a botched photo. But like,
Speaker 1: what if it's just what it is? Aren't things ever
Speaker 1: what they are? Like, that's just what that is. Maybe
Speaker 1: she's just coming back Easter. That's what I'm betting on now,
Speaker 1: new breaking news theory. Another thing I love about the
Speaker 1: Princess of Wales Kate story is that.
Speaker 2: There was a botched photo.
Speaker 1: They explained that, but their entire mo is don't complain,
Speaker 1: don't explain, They don't jump and react because everyone is
Speaker 1: freaking out.
Speaker 2: They are staying the.
Speaker 1: Course and they run the show. So perhaps they said
Speaker 1: what they said, she'll be back when she's back. That's power,
Speaker 1: and people on social media have this entitlement like they
Speaker 1: deserve to know what's going on with someone.
Speaker 2: They demand to know.
Speaker 1: They're going to post about it, make it viral enough,
Speaker 1: clickbait it that more people will talk about it, and
Speaker 1: then that the royal family.
Speaker 2: Will just succumb.
Speaker 1: Like if you don't want to talk about something, you
Speaker 1: don't have to talk about something. It's amazing we have choices.
Speaker 1: We often let other people determine what we are doing
Speaker 1: by the pressure, by what they want to know. People
Speaker 1: go to things because they feel like they have to.
Speaker 1: People do things because they feel like they have to.
Speaker 1: People say things because they feel like they have to.
Speaker 1: I do love not doing something you don't want to do,
Speaker 1: not saying something you don't want to say, not explaining
Speaker 1: something you don't want to explain, not indulging something you
Speaker 1: don't want to indulge, and not providing for people who
Speaker 1: feel entitled to something that you don't feel that they're
Speaker 1: entitled to. I think that's amazing and that's just remarkable.
Speaker 1: Not everything needs to be said. It's called the tough
Speaker 1: Shit program. What's going to happen? The monarchy is going
Speaker 1: to fold. Because Kate said she was going to be
Speaker 1: gone till Eastern she might just actually be gone to Okay,
Speaker 1: that's a great take in my opinion, Like that's just
Speaker 1: a good.
Speaker 2: Way to go about it.
Speaker 1: How foolish when she just comes out and she's like, Hi,
Speaker 1: I'm back.
Speaker 2: Any other questions asked and answered?
Speaker 1: Sorry, not sorry, no complain, no, no explain and maybe
Speaker 1: it is.
Speaker 2: What it is.
Speaker 1: It was a botched picture just to get something up.
