Kelly Clarkson Wins One & Loses One at 2026 Daytime Emmys

The Kelly Clarkson Show won outstanding daytime talk series at the 2026 Daytime Emmys, while Clarkson lost the host award to Sherri Shepherd. The result adds to the programme’s record of success across its seven seasons, with Clarkson having won at least one of the two talk categories in six seasons.

Clarkson has received nine Daytime Emmys: five for talk series and four for hosting. The show also won three other awards this year, and General Hospital took outstanding daytime drama for a record sixth consecutive time and 19th time overall. Clarkson was absent from the ceremony, which was held at the Hollywood Palladium and streamed online.
