Kelly Clarkson is now the proud host of a new daytime talk show, aptly named "The Kelly Clarkson Show." During what is sure to be one of the most popular segments, Kelly belted out tunes, calling them "Kellyoke." In one of her most recent segments, Kelly covered Fred Rogers's "Won't You Be My Neighbor?"

Tom Hanks appeared on Kelly's show this past Tuesday to help promote his new movie, "A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood," where he plays Fred Rogers. So Kelly appropriately performed the '"Mister Rogers' Neighborhood" theme song "Won't You Be My Neighbor?"

Kelly put a jazzy spin on the tune while a silhouette of a man walking in and taking his jacket off played in the background just like Mister Rogers did in the show. The theme song is known to generations of children who watched the show as Fred Rogers sang the tune at the beginning of each episode. 

Kelly has been putting her own spin on the covers she performs and "Won't You Be My Neighbor?" was no different. While filming the second episode ever, the accomplished singer used the segment to sing the song "Sucker" by the Jonas Brothers.

Despite the song being the hit of the summer of 2019, Kelly managed to make the song feel new and original, lending her own personal style to the song.
