Fans Slam Kelly Clarkson, Peyton Manning Over Olympics Commentary During Opening Ceremonies
Kelly Clarkson's Olympic debut didn’t go particularly well, at least in the eyes of some. Alongside Peyton Manning and NBC sports commentator Mike Tirico, Clarkson co-hosted the network's studio coverage of Friday's opening ceremony in Paris — a first-of-its-kind boat parade which was plagued by rain all evening. The reviews of Clarkson's commentary were mixed. Clarkson, Manning and Tirico broadcasted from an NBC on-site studio throughout the opening ceremony. Fans seemed to take aim at Clarkson as she trudged through her first Olympics broadcast. Wrote person wrote: “These opening ceremonies would be more fun if Kelly Clarkson didn’t react to everything that’s happened like she’s never left her house before.” Another wrote: “It’s not terribly awful but I really wish that the NBC commentators wouldn’t feel the need to randomly talk over the show. Just let the images speak for themselves sometimes. I’m talking about you Kelly Clarkson!”
