When Jerry Springer paid a visit to “The Kelly Clarkson Show” in 2020, he and Kelly Clarkson got pretty candid about something embarrassing they’d both done — box office bombs! Yep, Springer and Clarkson both have (in their opinion, of course) bad movies in their rearview mirror, which they can laugh about now. “You also made a movie,” Clarkson told the former “America’s Got Talent” host, as he jokingly hit back, “And so did you, Fancy Pants.” “Mine was contractually obligated. It was horrible! How was yours?” Clarkson then asked, to which Springer admitted he hated his movie, adding, “It was called ‘Ringmaster’ and it came out right when my show was really doing well and so they wanted to make a movie about, [a] Ringmaster, because really it’s a circus, my show.” They both then bonded over their tragic movie pasts, calling their projects (in their words, not ours) “horrible.”
Springer’s “Ringmaster” came out in 1998 and didn’t exactly set the box office on fire. In fact, it pretty much bombed, only recouping $9.2 million of the reported $20 million it took to make it, per Box Office Mojo. As for Clarkson’s movie mishap, she was referring to her notorious post-“American Idol” release, “From Justin To Kelly,” which she starred in alongside “Idol” runner-up Justin Guarini. That pulled in $4.9 million at the box office in 2003, according to Box Office Mojo, much less than its $12 million budget.
