KELLY Clarkson has announced another huge career move after she fled Los Angeles to make a major change for her daytime talk show.
Over the summer, the Since U Been Gone singer moved The Kelly Clarkson Show from the Universal Lot in LA to Studio 6A in 30 Rock.
Kelly, 41, took to Instagram to announce her new XM channel, Kelly Clarkson Connection, to her social media followers.
The post, which included a promo photo of the daytime talk show host smiling, was captioned: "I’m inviting you to enjoy my new channel ‘Kelly Clarkson Connection’ with the @SiriusXM Listen Free Event now through Dec 4 at Ch 12.
"It’s already on, just turn the radio on in your car to listen for free: https://www.siriusxm.com/KellyClarksonLF."
In the post's comment section, one person wrote: "Wow! You are amazing!!!"

"Happy first day of December," commented another.
While a third fan wrote: "I found it by accident a couple of days ago and love it."
Recently, Kelly appeared to clap back after being slammed for her outfit at the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree Lighting.
The Breakaway singer came under fire for wearing a white coat with fur lining - which critics feared might be real fur.

Kelly's coat featured thick white fur around the neckline, cuffs, and hemline.
While several fans complimented how beautiful the daytime television host looked at the tree lighting, many couldn't look past her jacket.
One fan on Instagram said: "Hope that’s not real fur."
Another added: "If that is real fur, you should be ashamed!
"Those poor animals are worth more than cuffs and trim. #cruelty."
A third added: "Kelly, I love you, but please don't wear fur..."
Kelly did not reveal whether her coat was real fur or faux fur.
She did, however, appear to brush aside the controversy by continuing to post photos and videos in the outfit despite the backlash.
The Grammy winner shared several close-ups of her makeup and hair and posed with her glam room while wearing the outfit.
Kelly captioned it: "Shout out to my incredible team that froze outside with me last night at the Rockefeller tree lighting.
"We were freezing but it was so much fun!!"
She also posted a clip of herself wearing the coat as she reflected on the irony of singing her song, Underneath The Tree, while standing under the tree.
TIGHT FIT
Controversy aside, Kelly has been stunning fans with her drastic weight loss in recent months.
During a recent chat on The Kelly Clarkson Show, the host admitted that she's been loving losing weight.
As the singer spoke with sisters Barbara, 41, and Jenna Bush Hager, 41, the trio delved into the topic of not fitting into their clothes anymore.
Kelly added: "Ugh, I don't fit into mine.
"I love losing weight but here's the thing. Jeans are so hard, I feel like when you have a butt and a smaller waist."
GREEN WITH ENVY
On Friday, Kelly showed off her drastic weight loss in a figure-hugging green dress in a new photo.
The 41-year-old singer posted a behind-the-scenes snapshot of The Kelly Clarkson Show that captured her slim figure.
Kelly posted the social media photo alongside guests on Friday.
The New York-based host wore a curve-hugging green dress, which was covered in a floral pattern, as she stood alongside her guests.
The star used a brown belt to cinch in the outfit and show off her waist which looked slimmer than ever.
Kelly's look was completed with a face-full of natural makeup and her blonde locks left down and lightly curled.
The Stronger singer smiled in the photos with her arms around legendary singer Dionne Warwick and her son Damon Elliott.
In the second photo, Kelly was pictured with the Saturday Night Live star, Mikey Day.
