    Kelly Clarkson’s ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock, filed official documents demanding his ex-wife disables security cameras on their Montana Ranch where he’s been staying. 

    According to the documents obtained by The Blast, Clarkson, 40, was forced to turn off the 13 cameras throughout the ranch. The documents didn’t clarify why Blackstock requested them be disabled. 

    “Kelly Blackstock shall forthwith turn off all web-cams, trail cams, and any other security cameras at (the address) which are now approximately 13 in total,” the documents read.

    The documents claim that Clarkson, who legally changed her name to Kelly Brianne in March will have to provide proof to Blackstock’s attorney that the cameras have been disabled. The documents specifically reads, “specify how that was accomplished.”

    The outlet reported that the request for camera removal comes primarily for privacy reasons, as the “Since You’ve Been Gone” singer has access to videos and pictures of who enters the property. 

    Clarkson was awarded the Montana ranch in their divorce settlement, but Blackstock has been allowed to live there through June 1 and pay $12,500 per month in rent.

    According to court documents, Clarkson agreed to pay Blackstock spousal support totaling $115,000 per month until Jan. 31, 2024, but those payments would end should Blackstock remarry before that date or if either party dies prior to it.

    The talk show host will also have to pay her ex $45,601 per month in child support. Both the spousal and child support payments were to begin on Feb. 1, 2022.

    Kelly Clarkson says she’s ‘so broken’ while quarantining with kids at home

    NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

    Kelly Clarkson is getting real with her fans by giving them an inside look at her home life as a single mom with two kids. 

    The TV personality and singer appeared on her namesake talk show on Tuesday from her home. She went makeup-free and was seen wearing a sleep mask atop her head and a robe.

    “Sometimes women don’t rise,” she joked to Taraji P. Henson who filled in for Clarkson in-studio.”Sometimes we fall.”

    “I thought we were done with quarantining, and I’m so tired. I broke a nail. I’m so broken. This is me broken. My almond milk just expired. America, this is what I look like,” Clarkson said with a laugh.

    Henson told Clarkson not to worry as her appearance was the first time she’s left the house since Christmas.

    Clarkson didn’t share details about why she’s at home with her kids, but she did reveal that she’s not ill.

    “I’m not even sick! It’s so weird. Anyway, we’re keeping it safe,” Clarkson said.

    The “Voice” judge went on to share that her kids cannot stop watching Disney’s “Encanto,” which she’s a fan of, too.

     “We’ve seen it so much but it’s so cute,” she said.

    Whether you love Christmas queen Mariah Carey‘s “All I Want for Christmas Is You” or a classic tune such as Dean Martin’s “Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!” Spotify comprised a list of the most-streamed holiday songs of all time.

    “What strikes me most about the list is it shows how much listeners still love the classics year after year, but are also embracing the newer music that comes along,” Shanon Cook, Spotify head of global culture and trends communication, told the “Today” show. “There aren’t too many music categories where you’ll see both Ariana Grande and Elvis Presley among the top spots.”

    “A successful holiday song is one that evokes some sort of atmosphere, whether it’s comfort, coziness, the thrill of being reunited with family and friends, or longing to see someone you love,” she added.

    Kelly Clarkson was mistaken for Carrie Underwood, signed fan’s autograph anyway: ‘That might be illegal’

    Kelly Clarkson revealed she once rolled with it after a fan mistook her for fellow “American Idol” winner Carrie Underwood. 

    Clarkson was the very first winner of “American Idol” but was hardly the last. Season 4 saw now-country superstar Underwood take home the coveted title as well, which Clarkson revealed has sometimes led to a bit of confusion among fans. 

    Speaking on her talk show Friday, the “Because of You” singer revealed that she once had an awkward encounter with a young woman that approached her for an autograph. 

    “This girl came up to me and was like, ‘Oh my god, your song ‘So Small’ is one of my favorites,’” Clarkson explained. “And I kept thinking, ‘I don’t have a song “So Small.”‘ And then she said another song and I was like, ‘Oh, you think I’m Carrie Underwood.’”

    She revealed that she wasn’t quite sure what the best thing to do in the awkward encounter was and opted not to correct the fan.

    “And I literally look nothing like Carrie Underwood,” she added. “I was so embarrassed for her that I just…She was like, ‘Can you sign this?’ And I totally signed ‘Carrie Underwood.’ I think that might be illegal!”

    The topic came up during a game Clarkson played with guests Michelle Buteau and Cheryl Hines in which they discussed how they would react in various awkward situations, prompting the other women to reveal they had similar experiences with people mistaking them for Kim Coles and Julie Bowen respectively. 

    This isn’t the first time that Clarkson has told a story about being mistaken for Underwood. As Page Six notes, she appeared on Z100’s Elvis Duran and The Morning show in 2016 to tell a similar tale.

    “People come up to me all the time,” Clarkson explained.. “Okay, we look nothing alike, we sound nothing alike, there’s nothing about us that’s similar, really, except we were both on ‘Idol.’ People are always like, ‘I love your song, “So Small,” and I’m like, ‘Thank you. Thank you, I think you’re thinking I’m Carrie Underwood.’ It always happens!”

    Tim Allen talks 22 years of sobriety, ‘Home Improvement’

    Tim Allen has a lot to be proud of.

    The actor recently paid a visit to “The Kelly Clarkson Show” and participated in an interview that aired on Thursday, detailing his 22 years of sobriety.

    “I’ve been drugs- and alcohol-free for about 22 years,” said Allen, 66, then revealing that someone reached out to him before he got sober.

    SINGER DUFFY OFFERS UPDATE, RELEASES NEW SONG AFTER REVEALING SHE WAS RAPED, DRUGGED, HELD CAPTIVE

    “Because I had money and I was a star, people help, they enable you to get by,” recalled the comedian. “The program I practice, it’s all about as soon as you get it, you gotta give it away. A kid can’t hold on to all these toys, and every time he sees a new toy, and he goes, ‘Mine,’ you gotta drop one of those before you can grab another one.”

    He then noted that “it doesn’t happen overnight. It’s a day-to-day thing.”

    Allen also discussed his days on the beloved sitcom “Home Improvement,” revealing that fans still ask him to perform his signature grunt.

    “It’s grunt for me,” recounted Allen. “Like I’m one of those little monkeys that does this [clapping hands]. “

    TV SHOWS, MOVIES AFFECTED BY CORONAVIRUS: FROM ‘THE BATMAN’ TO ‘STRANGER THINGS’

    Another memory came to mind for Allen, one in which a police officer pulled him over and performed the grunt when he saw Allen in the car.

    Yet another fan interaction popped into Allen’s head as well.

    “I’m up in Sacramento and my wife and I were going through town and the guy across the streets goes ‘Oh, hey!’ — which I like when people think I have to turn around when they just yell ‘Hey!'” he remembered. “I [turn around] and he goes ‘you… tool belt!’… and I went ‘Claw hammer…”

    “This world is not like it was in ‘Home Improvement,'” said Allen, noting the show’s significance. “In ‘Home Improvement,’ I believe 24 million viewers on a Tuesday night.”

    On the subject, Allen reminisced about live simulcasting an episode on the Space Shuttle Endeavour.

    “It looked like it was phony,” he recalled. “It looked like it was floating around in there, doing a tool time. I’ve got all the stuff at my shop, I’m a space freak. I just love that stuff and I said ‘What kind of money was this? Who did this?’ where they’re floating around because the joke was: I was doing a tool time and they’re all sleepy because it was so boring.”

    The actor continued, noting that they shot it live from the Space Shuttle Endeavour.

    The two also discussed Allen’s memorable performance as Buzz Lightyear in the “Toy Story” films and a young child that thought Allen “swallowed Buzz Lightyear” upon hearing him say “To infinity and beyond.”

    “The Kelly Clarkson Show” is among many shows to have gone dark amid the coronavirus outbreak.

    The announcement was made by Clarkson, 37, on Instagram, alongside the announcement that her upcoming Las Vegas Residency as been postponed, all due to the viral outbreak.

    “As you may know, production on The Kelly Clarkson Show was temporarily shut down late last night and out of concern and care for everyone’s safety, we have chosen to postpone the April 1st opening of my Las Vegas residency, Invincible, until July,” Clarkson wrote. “Details regarding ticket replacement are forthcoming and I can’t wait to see you this summer. For now, please keep your loved ones close, safe and healthy.”
