The Grammy winner continued: “I got to host it last year, and I thought, ‘Oh, this will be fun.’ […] Then, the tree lit up, and you would’ve thought, like, I don’t know, I found out I was going to survive something. I bawled.”
“It’s so beautiful when you’re standing there. I’m especially excited though, because for the second year in a row, I’m going to host Christmas in Rockefeller Center.”
In addition to emceeing the event, Clarkson will also delight the audience with renditions of holiday favorites at the tree-lighting ceremony. As fans know, the mom of two has two Christmas albums to her name: Wrapped in Red from 2013 and When Christmas Comes Around… from 2021.

“I’m literally crying right now,” one wrote regarding the news of Clarkson’s hosting return as another added: “2 years in a row! You are absolutely an amazing and, adorable queen of music!” Someone else noted: “Kelly Clarkson, I can’t wait to see you until December 4th on NBC while you’re in a New York City Rockefeller plaza Huge Christmas tree.” One other replied: “Yay she is the best host she should be the host every year for the tree lighting.” (We couldn’t agree more!)
