REBA McENTIRE & REX LINN CELEBRATE HALLOWEEN WITH KELLY CLARKSON — COUNTRY FUN, COSTUMES, AND LAUGHTER ON SET
Los Angeles, California — It was a Halloween party full of music, mischief, and southern charm as Reba McEntire and her fiancé Rex Linn joined Kelly Clarkson on The Kelly Clarkson Show for a festive, laugh-filled celebration. The country legend, her longtime partner, and the talk show host turned the studio into a haunted hoedown — complete with spooky décor, themed cocktails, and plenty of good-natured fun.
Reba, ever the queen of stage presence, arrived in true country style — dazzling in a sparkly orange-and-black outfit inspired by her Oklahoma roots. Beside her, Rex Linn kept things light with a playful costume that had the audience howling with laughter. Kelly Clarkson, never one to be outdone, joined in the fun with her own creative Halloween getup, setting the tone for a show filled with humor and heart.
The trio swapped stories about their favorite Halloween memories, with Reba revealing that she and Rex go all-out decorating their home every year. 💬 “We love Halloween — it’s one of those holidays where you just get to let your hair down, laugh, and be a kid again,” Reba said. “Rex is the biggest prankster — he’s worse than any teenager I know!”
Rex chimed in, laughing: “Reba scares easy, but she gets me back every time. Last year she hid behind the kitchen door with a foghorn — nearly sent me into orbit.”
Kelly couldn’t stop laughing as the couple’s warm, teasing chemistry filled the room. Fans online were quick to point out how naturally the two fit together — calling them “the most lovable power couple in country music.”
Between the laughter, Kelly surprised Reba with a spooky twist — a montage of her most iconic Halloween-themed performances and TV appearances, including her legendary role on Reba and a few clips from her recent tour.
But the highlight of the show came when Reba and Kelly joined forces for a mini duet of “The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia,” giving the audience a powerhouse performance that brought everyone to their feet. Even Rex couldn’t resist cheering and pretending to hold up a lighter during the big finale.
💬 “This is what Halloween’s about,” Kelly said after the applause died down. “Music, laughter, friendship — and a little bit of mischief.”
Fans flooded social media afterward, calling it “the most fun Halloween special ever” and praising Reba for her timeless charm. One viewer wrote, “Reba’s laugh is contagious, and seeing her so happy with Rex just makes my heart smile.”
As the show wrapped, Reba shared a simple message that summed up the spirit of the day:
💬 “Whether you’re dressed as a ghost or a cowboy, just have fun — that’s what life’s about.”
For Reba, Rex, and Kelly, Halloween wasn’t just about costumes and candy — it was a celebration of joy, love, and the laughter that keeps us all young at heart.
