    Check out Kelly Clarkson‘s new digs!

    The 39-year-old The Voice coach recently bought an almost 5,000-square-foot, five-bedroom Colonial-style home in Los Angeles County’s San Fernando Valley for almost $5.5 million, The Los Angeles Times reported this week.

    The news comes two weeks after the pop star sold her 20,000-square-foot, seven-bedroom Tennessee mansion for $6.3 million, real estate records show, and a month after NBC announced The Kelly Clarkson Show will move to The Ellen DeGeneres Show‘s time slot after the latter series ends its 19-season run in 2022.

    Clarkson’s new Los Angeles-area home was renovated in 2018. The house contains five bedrooms and luxury amenities such as a tennis court, swimming pool, guest house, sprawling garden and courtyard patio. The property is located not far from where the star films both The Kelly Clarkson Show and The Voice.

    This is not the first home Clarkson has owned in the Los Angeles area. In 2018, she bought a newly constructed 10,000-square-foot, eight-bedroom farmhouse mansion in Encino, located about 10 miles west of her new property.

    In May 2020, a month before filing for divorce from husband Brandon Blackstock, with whom she shares two children, the singer listed that home for sale for a little under $10 million. According to real estate records, the property’s price has since been reduced twice, mostly recently to $9 million in January.

    Kelly Osbourne Shares How She Was Introduced to Alcohol at a Young Age

    Kelly Osbourne Shares How She Was Introduced to Alcohol at a Young Age

  • In an exclusive clip from Red Table Talk, Kelly Osbourne spoke about how moving to America from England brought up insecurities that led to her starting to drink problematically.

    Kelly Osbourne appeared on Red Table Talk to talk about the moments of insecurity that led her to turn to alcohol. 

    In an exclusive clip shared exclusively with E! News on Wednesday, June 2, the former Fashion Police host explained to Jada Pinkett-Smith, Willow Smith and Adrienne Banfield-Norris what it was like growing up with her father, Black Sabbath star Ozzy Osbourne, who drank heavily. Additionally, Kelly, who is in recovery, recently relapsed after four years of sobriety. 

    “I was introduced to alcohol because I came from an alcoholic family,” she explained on the Facebook Watch talk show. “I grew up with my father being extremely, if not probably the heaviest drinker I’ve ever seen in my life.”

    She continued, “The alcohol was there. I moved to America, and I was 13. I was so foreign. I couldn’t be more foreign. Very English. Most of the time people didn’t understand what I was saying. I didn’t really fit in anywhere, so I got really, really insecure.”

    Stars’ Red Table Talk Confessions

    Kelly, who has spent time in rehab for substance abuse, opened up about relapsing in an Instagram Live this past April. 

    “This is a little hard for me to talk about, but I’ve always promised you that I will always be honest with you about where I’m at and what’s going on in my road to recovery,” she shared at the time. “I relapsed. Not proud of it, but I am back on track.”

    Kelly explained that while she is “sober today” and plans to be “sober tomorrow,” this battle is “truly is just one day at a time.”

    “I just wanted to tell you guys the truth ’cause I never, ever want to lie to you,” she concluded. “Thank you so much for your support and your love, and you’ll be hearing from me soon.”

    Days after discussing her relapse, the reality TV personality shared that she suffered a “nervous breakdown.”

    “I don’t know why my nervous breakdown happened at the end of the lockdown,” Kelly told Extra on April 27. “I made it all the way through, everything was great and my life was perfect. I’m that girl that when everything is going great, I need to f–k it up a little and make everything a little bit worse in my life. I am an addict and had thought that I had enough time under my belt, and I could drink like a normal person. And it turns out, I cannot, and I will never be normal. I don’t know why I even tried it. It’s not for me, and it took me a matter of days, and I was like, Done, not doing this.”

    Moreover, Kelly explained why she wanted to be open and honest about her relapse with her fans.

     “This is something I am going to battle for the rest of my life,” she shared. “It’s never going to be easy. Through being accountable and owning your own journey and sharing what you can, though, you can help other people. That’s why I came clean. I could have sat here, and nobody would know.”

    A decade ago, Kelly—who, at the time, had gone on a fitness journey—spoke about how the media treated her when she was at a heavier weight, in comparison to how she was discussed during her drug addiction recovery

    “I took more hell for being fat than I did for being an absolute raging drug addict,” she told Us Weekly in 2010. “I will never understand that.”

    Watch the clip above. Kelly’s appearance on Red Table Talk premieres today at 12 p.m. EST/9 a.m. PST.

    Grey's Anatomy's Kelly McCreary and Anthony Hill Offer Some Promising Season 17 Finale Teases

    Grey's Anatomy's Kelly McCreary and Anthony Hill Offer Some Promising Season 17 Finale Teases

  • Kelly McCreary and Anthony Hill preview the season 17 finale of Grey's Anatomy, including Maggie and Winston's potentially successful wedding.
  • Watch: “Grey’s Anatomy” Cast Teases Season 17 Finale

    Grey’s Anatomy does not have a great history with weddings. 

    It’s not that they’re always disasters, exactly, but they just never go as planned. Cristina (Sandra Oh) got left at the altar, which was bad, and Bailey (Chandra Wilson) got derailed from her own wedding to operate on Richard’s wife. Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) and Derek (Patrick Dempsey) were supposed to have a big fancy wedding, but then Izzie (Katherine Heigl) got a brain tumor, so she and Alex (Justin Chambers) used the big fancy wedding instead. Years later, Alex was supposed to have a fancy wedding to Jo (Camilla Luddington), but then after a series of mishaps, they got married on a ferry instead, allowing April (Sarah Drew) and Matthew (Justin Bruening) to use their original wedding to get married. 

    What we’re saying here is that weddings tend to be a bit of a mess on this show, and this week, there are two of them! While Maya (Danielle Savre) and Carina (Stefania Spampinato) are tying the knot on Station 19, Maggie (Kelly McCreary) and Winston (Anthony Hill) are allegedly saying “I do” on Grey’s. But there’s already a hitch, just in the promo

    Maggie’s dad and Winston’s grandma, who Maggie flew in as a surprise for Winston at the end of the last episode, are apparently objecting to this union. And according to McCreary, it’s no joke.

    “It’s a big deal,” she tells E! News. “I mean, first of all, what’s this consensus about? How did you guys both arrive at this? And there’s also the approval that you want as a future granddaughter-in-law, so it’s a big deal.” 

    Hill agrees on the big deal-ness of it all, and says “it’s definitely worth watching.” However, McCreary could offer a bit of solace to the “Magston” fans, even though neither she nor Hill could ever confirm whether or not the pair actually end up married by the end of the episode: “I think they’ll still be really, really satisfied and possibly delighted.” 

    Grey's Anatomy Season 17 FinaleABC

    For fans of Maggie in particular, this has been a long time coming. The character has never had a really great relationship on the show, and generally, things have just gotten weird. Remember when she dated her step-brother Jackson (Jesse Williams)? Or when, as McCreary reminded us, DeLuca (Giacomo Gianniotti) just dumped her in the lobby? So far, Winston is about a thousand times better than anyone Maggie has dated before.

     

    McCreary says that being in crisis all year, as the hospital dealt with the pandemic, helped Maggie figure out what she really wanted. 

    “It really sort of makes you cut through the nonsense and get over yourself and not let your ego get in the way of your happiness. Wherever there is happiness, you want to take advantage of it,” McCreary says. “I really loved exploring her embracing that and not overthinking and getting in the way of what was available and clearly very good for her in the love department.”

    While the crisis has served some of the doctors of Grey Sloan in unexpectedly positive ways, Grey’s Anatomy is finally making its way toward the same sort of other side that the real world is currently enjoying. While the last episode jumped ahead about six weeks, McCreary and Hill both confirm that the finale will jump even further ahead, bringing Grey’s out of the depths of 2020 and closer to present day. 

    “We do move through time to sort of catch the world of Grey’s up to where we are now,” McCreary says. “I think it was really worthwhile to spend a lot of time in the COVID storylines just because there was a lot of story to tell there, but it did start to feel a little bit like, ‘Oh god I’m so eager, so eager, for these characters to experience some of the relief that the rest of us are.’ It’s really cool. We get to move through time and see and see things changing a little bit, and the sun kind of coming out over Grey Sloan.”

    Hopefully, despite the cliffhanger that both McCreary and Hill promise that there is, that means good things for all, including a happy marriage for Maggie and Winston. In honor of their impending nuptials, we had them play a little newlywed game, which you can watch above.

    Hit play on all the videos to hear more from the pair! 

    Grey’s Anatomy‘s season 17 finale airs Thursday, June 3 at 9 p.m. on ABC.
