Kelly Clarkson showed off her slim figure in a dress while hosting her talk show on Friday morning.
The Because Of You artist donned a black, long-sleeve top with a peek-a-boo neckline tucked into a chic, high-waisted lace skirt.
Kelly, 42, accessorized her upscale look with black platform heels and hoop earrings.
This comes after the singer lost 40lbs thanks to a weight loss drug; she has said she has not taken the diabetes drug Ozempic.
But the fashion didn’t stop with the American Idol alum, as her guest Alicia Keys also rocked a cool look.
The 43-year-old sported a baby blue cropped jersey with an orange number five on the front and baggy cargo jeans.

Alicia opted to keep it casual with the kicks, wearing a pair of blue and white Nike sneakers.
Her hair pulled back in a sleek pony, and giant gold hoops finished off the relaxed look.
The singers posed for a picture together on social media, with Kelly holding up the playbill to the Broadway musical Hell’s Kitchen which features Alicia’s songs.
‘Closing out the week with music legends!’ The Kelly Clarkson Show captioned their Instagram pic. ‘Don’t miss @AliciaKeys and a performance from @Hellskitchenbway.’
In a follow-up post, Kelly is seen telling the audience, ‘I’m so excited,’ as Alicia playfully does jumping jacks next to her.
‘This is such a fun show today,’ the Grammy winner continued. ‘Hell’s Kitchen, y’all gotta go check it out. It’s on Broadway. I don’t know if you’ve heard but everyone loves it. 13 Tony nominations. Whatever, yeah it’s that good!’
Kelly’s latest episode comes weeks after she set the record straight on rumors surrounding her rapid weight loss.
The star, who shares kids River Rose, 9, and Remy Alexander, 8, with ex-husband Brandon Blackstock, admitted that her dramatic transformation was in fact the result of a weight loss drug.

‘Mine is a different one than people assume, but I ended up having to do that too,’ she told Whoopi Goldberg during her May 13 show.
‘Everybody thinks it’s Ozempic, it’s not – it’s something else.’
Kelly revealed her physician prompted her to get on the medication after her continuous refusal to do so.
‘My doctor chased me for like two years,’ she said. ‘And I was like, “No, I’m afraid of it. I already have thyroid problems, I was afraid.”‘
The 42-year-old recently revealed that she is on a drug that ‘aids in helping break down the sugar,’ as her ‘body doesn’t do it right’

Without putting a name to the medication, Kelly noted that the drug is ‘something that aids in helping break down the sugar,’ as her ‘body doesn’t do it right.’
The hitmaker’s weight loss journey began after watching herself perform on screen and not recognizing who she was.
‘We were in my house in New York like watching,’ Kelly recalled, ‘and then all of a sudden I paused and I was like, “Who the f*** is that?” I swear to god, it sounds insane.’
She added, ‘You see it. And you’re like, “Well, she about to die of a heart attack.”‘
However, Kelly previously attributed some of her weight loss to walking around New York City, eating fewer carbs, and following a higher-protein diet.
‘I eat a healthy mix. I dropped weight because I’ve been listening to my doctor—a couple years I didn’t,’ she told People in January. ‘And 90 percent of the time I’m really good at it because a protein diet is good for me anyway.’
