Kelly Rowland, The Sherri Show,

It’s Kelly Rowland! Of Course ‘The Sherri Show’ Gave Her A ‘Gorgeous’ Dressing Room

The "Sherri" show welcomed Kelly Rowland with a "gorgeous" dressing room after she walked off "Today" last week.


Sherri Shepherd addressed fan comments speculating that she provided Kelly Rowland with an upgraded dressing room after the singer’s recent exit from the Today show over dressing room issues.

“I guess her dressing room was acceptable,” one fan remarked on the Sherri show’s Instagram post of the Feb. 19 interview with Rowland, who gave the talk show host her flowers for being a ”safe space.”

Shepherd clarified from her personal account, “oh we gave her a gorgeous room!❤. It is Kelendria Rowland🔥🔥🔥.” Shepherd even spotlighted a backstage moment on her “After Show,” showing the inside of the dressing room that was prepared for the “Motivation” singer.

According to Page Six, all the noise about the dressing room stemmed after the 43-year-old entertainer walked off the Today set before co-hosting with Hoda Kotb on February 15.

“Her dressing rooms weren’t up to par,” an inside source revealed. “Kelly Rowland and her team were not happy…so they decided to pull her off the show, leaving Kotb without a guest host for the 10 a.m. hour.”

The source said Rowland’s team allegedly played “musical dressing rooms” before inquiring about a green room on another floor that was already occupied by Jennifer Lopez. “They didn’t want that. [The show] basically offered up as much as possible, but they weren’t happy with it, so they walked…”

Though advertised to co-host that day, Rowland appeared in an early segment before departing. US Weekly reported that Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager made it clear on the Feb. 20 episode that there were no hard feelings.

“I just want to say this: I have great love and admiration for Kelly Rowland. I adore her, and I want her to come back on our show, and I want her to host again,” Kotb said.

“She is welcome anytime…She’s the best,” Hager, 43, added.

Kotb said Rowland was welcome to share her dressing room and that Today loves the Destiny’s Child alumna.

Fans weren’t overlooking any details from Rowland’s Today appearance. Before last week’s walk-out, viewers blasted host Savannah Guthrie, who seemed fixated on asking Rowland questions about Beyoncé‘s recent shift to country music instead of her upcoming movie, Mea Culpa. Some speculated this may have played a factor in the abrupt exit.
