00:00 Let's kick it off.
00:01 First off, talking about you in red right here.
00:03 You look amazing.
00:04 Is this part of the new New York Kelly,
00:06 your style and spot these days?
00:08 - We did kind of purposely go a little elevated New York
00:12 for the talk show, and it kind of bled over
00:13 into my personal life as well.
00:15 Not too much, I'm still mom-butting it and workout clothes.
00:19 But I love red, it's like a powerful color for me.
00:22 Like I feel good in it, and so I was like,
00:24 I'm very excited about this channel.
00:27 I mean, just as a kid who grew up on radio
00:29 and I couldn't afford to buy music all the time,
00:30 I lived by my radio.
00:33 Like, so I love it, and I'm very excited about this channel.
00:37 - Well, we're excited to hear your voice
00:38 every single day on the channel.
00:39 Tell me what we can expect from it.
00:41 - You know what, you can expect to hear literally anything.
00:44 Expect the unexpected.
00:45 Like, it's literally, I was listening to the station
00:48 before we released it today,
00:49 and we were just making sure the flow and everything,
00:51 and I'm incorporating some new things,
00:53 you know, kind of figuring it out.
00:54 And it'll kind of figure its way out more and more,
00:56 but even like this morning,
00:57 I sent them like three Måneskin songs that I love,
01:00 and I was like, wait, I forgot about these songs.
01:02 And it's just all over the map, man.
01:04 You're gonna hear everything from dance to R&B to country
01:07 to rap to rock to pop to everything, singer-songwriter.
01:11 You're gonna hear everything.
01:12 - And I hope some of your music as well.
01:14 - And we obviously, you're gonna hear my music as well.
01:16 I was told I have to do that.
01:18 - Some chemistry. - I don't wanna do it.
01:19 Yeah, no, we're gonna play some stuff from chemistry.
01:21 You'll hear some live stuff,
01:22 and that's kind of the really cool thing,
01:24 is I was like, I don't wanna just play the songs,
01:26 you know, on the record, only do that.
01:28 I think that's cool, but I think it'd be cool
01:30 to take advantage of the fact that I have this channel
01:32 and do some random live stuff every now and then.
01:34 You just never know when that's gonna pop up.
01:35 And then also, you know, maybe in the future,
01:38 be able to incorporate people keep wanting
01:40 to hear the Kelly Oakeys somewhere.
01:42 So maybe this is the vessel for that.
01:43 So yeah. - Absolutely.
01:44 You did "Flowers" today, love it.
01:45 I wanna dive into "Chemistry" really quick,
01:46 because it has been so well-received by your fans.
01:50 It's an amazing album. - Thank you.
01:51 - You collaborated with a hot new artist
01:53 on this album, River Rose.
01:55 - I did, okay, I was like, who are you talking about?
01:57 I was like, there's Steve Martin,
01:58 there's a lot of artists.
01:59 - Was she a diva in the studio?
02:01 - No, oh my God, y'all, and it's so funny,
02:02 but she did it years ago.
02:04 So she's nine now, she was five
02:06 whenever she was in the studio at our house,
02:08 and just walked in and heard me singing,
02:09 and was like, can I sing?
02:10 And it was like, just, I took my vocal off and my melody.
02:13 She didn't hear anything.
02:13 All she heard was the track,
02:14 and she just started like jamming to it.
02:16 And we just thought it was cute, so we kept it in.
02:19 And now my kids call it River Song.
02:21 I'm like, all right.
02:22 - She got mama's voice, no doubt about that.
02:24 We're really excited you're gonna be hosting
02:26 the Tree Lighting, Christmas in Rockefeller.
02:28 Tell me about that.
02:29 Are the kids excited to go with you?
02:31 - Yes, my children are very excited.
02:32 They're asking how many tickets
02:33 they can get for their friends.
02:34 I'm like, you're already at this stage?
02:36 Okay, I love Christmas.
02:38 Like, that's not a secret at this point,
02:40 but I'm really, really a big fan of just,
02:43 not the holiday, the messaging,
02:44 the classic sound of the music.
02:46 I love all of it.
02:47 And so this is a perfect thing for me.
02:49 And I've done Rockefeller as a performer,
02:51 but I've never actually hosted and performed.
02:52 So I'm used to hosting by now,
02:55 but I'm very excited about it.
02:56 I'm just a little terrified about how cold it's gonna be.
02:59 I have really great dresses,
03:00 and I'm afraid I'm gonna have to wear a coat.
03:02 - Who's been your best run-in in 30 Rock so far?
03:04 - Oh, best run-in.
03:05 You know what, it's always random.
03:07 Like, even Sheryl Crow and I ran into each other
03:08 'cause she was on Fallon and we're in the same hallway.
03:11 So I'm always running, I ran into Mickey Guyton,
03:12 I ran into, I just keep running into everybody.
03:14 Like, Hayley from Paramore,
03:16 like, I just keep running into everybody that's on Fallon
03:18 'cause when I'm leaving my show, his show is starting.
03:20 - Oh yeah.
03:21 - It's, yeah, it's just the most random.
03:24 Yeah, yeah, so it's just,
03:25 you just run into everybody, it's weird.
03:27 - And last thing, biggest breaking news of the morning,
03:29 Patrick Dempsey was named People's Sexiest Man Alive.
03:32 - Yes, he was.
03:33 - What do you think of that?
03:34 - It's great hair.
03:36 - It's overdue, right?
03:38 - He's never had it?
03:39 - Never had it, first timer.
03:41 - What?
03:43 - I know, McDreamy.
03:44 Come on.
03:45 - Yeah, that's why I was like, he's never had it?
03:47 - Shocking, right?
03:47 He said finally at the end of the video.
03:48 - And Blake got it?
03:49 I'm just kidding, I'm just kidding.
03:51 I'm just kidding, Blake deserved it.
03:53 No, that's so shocking to me that he's never had it before.
03:56 I would have thought that would have been
03:57 like a second or third time around.
03:58 - Right.
03:59 - Boy, we really messed that one up.
04:00 Yeah, but never too late. - Come on, people.
04:02 - You know what, he's aging like a fine wine, yeah.
04:05 - Love it, well, thank you so much.
04:06 - Maybe better older, yeah.
04:07 - Can't wait for this channel
04:08 and hopefully bump into you in 30 Rock.
