Kelly Clarkson is stepping back into the spotlight less than two weeks after her ex-husband Brandon Blackstock passed away.
The first episode of the 43-year-old singer-songwriter’s NBC special Songs & Stories will premiere at 10 p.m. on Tuesday, August 19.
As Star previously reported, the four-part pre-recorded special features the “Miss Independent” songstress having “unfiltered” conversations with a different musician/musical group each week, starting with the Jonas Brothers on Tuesday, according to the NBC website.
In the following weeks, the American Idol alum will sit down with Gloria Estefan, Lizzo and Teddy Swims. Per NBC, viewers will also get to see musical performances in an “intimate, unplugged setting.”

As for the Grammy Award winner’s other TV commitments, Star reported last week that Clarkson is allegedly going to be missing filming dates for season 29 of The Voice.
“Kelly will not be at the tapings scheduled next week for Thursday and Friday,” a source told The Sun in an article published Thursday, August 14. “Production is working on a replacement coach for her now.”
However, TMZ confirmed earlier this month that The Kelly Clarkson Show will be back for its seventh season this fall, with new episodes debuting in September.
Clarkson’s television appearance comes shortly after Blackstock died at 48 years old on Thursday, August 7. The former talent manager — who shares kids River, 11, and Remington, 9, with Clarkson — lost his three-year battle with melanoma.
