Aptly titled Oh, Straight People, Ellen reads real-life headlines and shakes her head at those silly straights. The segment is absolutely hilarious. Who doesn't love a couple of jokes at the expense of 96% of the country?

        Kelly Clarkson Is Taking Over Ellen's Daytime Talk Show Time Slot

Kelly Clarkson will take over Ellen DeGeneres' daytime talk show time slot in 2022 with The Kelly Clarkson Show.
The news comes weeks after DeGeneres announced the conclusion of The Ellen DeGeneres Show, which will end after a 19-year run. While she claimed the show wasn't "challenging" for her anymore, the 63-year-old host has come under fire in the last year because of accusations of toxic working conditions. When its 19th season premiered last fall, the Emmy-Award-winning series took a severe hit in the ratings department as a result.
