The Kelly Clarkson Show host, 43, surprised fans at her Studio Sessions residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas on Friday, July 18, with a special guest — her 11-year-old daughter — who came onto the stage to sing a duet with her.
Videos shared on X show the mother-daughter duo singing Clarkson's 'Heartbeat Song' in similar outfits, a black T-shirt with sparkly bedazzled words and pants. The pair can be seen dancing and swaying while holding microphones.
At certain moments during the performance, Clarkson sweetly encouraged and hugged her daughter — whom she shares with ex-husband Brandon Blackstock — as they sang together. River Rose held her earpiece before really getting lost in the performance.
The fan who shared the video online also revealed what Clarkson told the audience before the duet: 'So my daughter, River Rose, said to me, 'I wanna sing tonight!' '
This isn't the first time the mother-daughter pair has performed the track, as Clarkson previously brought her daughter onstage to sing 'Heartbeat Song' during a Las Vegas concert in August 2023.
Clarkson noted at the time that River Rose had been 'jamming out to the song since she was a baby' and 'loves this song so much.' She also shared that her daughter asked if she could come onstage and sing it with her. The pair wore matching dresses — with Clarkson in black and River Rose in white — for that performance.
The Grammy winner isn't afraid to integrate her two kids — she also shares 9-year-old son Remington "Remy" with Blackstock — into her shows. She previously gave them a shout-out during her July 12 concert.
"Y'all, I do have to say that I love that I'm probably embarrassing my kids. They're like, 'Stop talking.' I hope y'all have fun. I am completely going to embarrass you with things that I say — you're welcome, it builds character," she told the crowd.
Clarkson kicked off her Las Vegas residency on July 11 after postponing its Fourth of July start date due to 'prep and rehearsals" taking a toll on her voice.
Following her announcement about the postponement on Instagram, a source told PEOPLE that Clarkson 'didn't want to cancel any shows,' but had to in order to protect her vocal cords.

'She was devastated and felt terrible for fans that had traveled to see her,' the source said. 'She's been very excited about the Las Vegas residency and connecting with her fans.'
The star also wrapped season 6 of her daytime talk show in June, and teased in an Instagram post that viewers could expect a seventh season this fall.

YAHOO POLL: Should Astronomer CEO Andy Byron have resigned?
Unless you've been living under a rock with no access to social media, then you're probably aware that there's a tech company called Astronomer whose CEO recently got caught snuggling with a woman who was not his wife at a recent Coldplay concert in Boston. Astronomer chief Andy Byron is holding his company's chief people officer, Kristin Cabot, in his arms when footage of their embrace is beamed up onto the stadium's jumbotron. Coldplay frontman Chris Martin says 'Oh look at these two" which prompts Cabot to quickly cover her face while Byron ducks to avoid the cameras. "Either they're having an affair or they're very shy," Coldplay's Martin accurately notes. Of course, someone was filming the entire awkward exchange and decided it would be best to blast the clip on social media. The video went viral and it didn't take internet sleuths long to identify who the couple were and create rumours of an alleged affair. The woman behind the viral video says she wasn't trying to cause any trouble when she posted it – but at the same time she's not exactly apologetic either. "Play stupid games... win stupid prizes," she was quoted as saying in an interview. Other polls YAHOO POLL: Does cutting public holidays help boost the economy?

Astronomer launched an investigation at the weekend and it was announced shortly afterwards that Byron had resigned from his role. As of press time, there was no update on Cabot's position. 'As stated previously, Astronomer is committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding. Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability, and recently, that standard was not met,' the company's statement released Saturday reads. "Andy Byron has tendered his resignation, and the Board of Directors has accepted. The Board will begin a search for our next Chief Executive as Cofounder and Chief Product Officer Pete DeJoy continues to serve as interim CEO." While the whole episode was not been the kind of attention Astronomer would have wanted, some public relations experts have said the newfound fame could, ultimately, benefit the firm.

NEWS OF THE WEEK: Katherine Schwarzenegger hired 'stepparenting coach' before marrying Chris Pratt
In an interview for the Parenting & You with Dr. Shefali podcast on Tuesday, the author-entrepreneur opened up about her experience of becoming a stepmother to the Guardians of the Galaxy actor's 12-year-old son Jack, whom he shares with ex-wife Anna Faris. "Number one thing I say is get a stepparenting therapist or stepparenting coach, because I got that right when we got engaged, and it's been incredibly helpful for me and also just understanding my role as a stepparent,". "Stepparenting, like parenting, has no handbook. Because I have the benefit of being in both roles....

Sound and Vision
Log on to social media these days, and it's likely that you'll come across a video of two people in a studio, talking. Usually the host is famous — Joe Rogan, or Amy Poehler or the Kelce brothers. Often the guest is, too. And while the clip on social media is probably brief, the video it's been cut from may well be three, four, even five hours long. This is podcasting in 2025: Many of the most popular shows are now video conversations that seem to stretch on forever. They often feature major political figures and may even have played a role in electing Donald Trump to his second term. The sheer profusion of these talk shows poses a very basic question: Who, exactly, is watching all this? I put that question to podcast creators and viewers, industry analysts and executives. And the answer, it turns out, is complicated. In today's newsletter, I'll explain what I learned. Who's watching One thing we do know: A lot of people are hitting play on podcast videos. YouTube announced recently that more than a billion people a month watch podcasts on its platform. And according to the most recent survey research, around three-quarters of podcast consumers play podcast videos. What makes it complicated, though, is that we don't know whether everyone playing these videos is actually watching them. The same survey showed that more than 40 percent of people who play podcast videos on YouTube listen to them only in the background — say, while folding laundry or doing other work. Podcasting began as an audio-only format, which led to an extraordinary degree of intimacy between listeners and hosts. Hearing the same people in your ears week after week tends to do that. Video podcasts strive for the same, or an even greater, sense of intimacy with their audience. One superfan of 'This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von' told me that she liked to watch the entire podcast because it made her feel less alone and as if she had company over. (Von's show, which regularly draws hundreds of thousands of viewers on YouTube, typically runs for about two hours.) Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
