Kelly Rowland Continues to Dodge Questions About Walking Off ‘Today’ Set

Kelly Rowland is passing on an opportunity to explain exactly what happened on the “Today” show … and as she makes clear here, she only wants to discuss her new movie.

The singer was directly asked about her recent “Today” controversy during an interview Wednesday with WGN News in Chicago — where she was plugging her upcoming movie, “Mea Culpa” … and based on this alone, you can tell she ain’t gonna spill the beans.

The news anchor asks Kelly if she can clear up what happened on “Today” — because, as he notes, there’s all these different reasons out there as to why she bailed on cohosting the show. Remember, some suggested she was actually peeved over Beyoncé questions.

Anyway, Kelly sticks to her guns here … and kinda dug her heels in on refusing to talk about it — and we’ll be honest, it’s kinda awkward. Check it out … she says straight up, nah.

Kelly explains that she’s not going to talk about it because she wants to keep the spotlight on her new Netflix film … though she does say she loves the “Today” show and Hoda Kotb.

Like we said … it’s bizarre that continues to refuse to just address the elephant in the room. In fact, you could argue that her trying to ignore it is only making the legend grow — and at this point, it seems to be all anyone wants to talk about … even though she insists on just promoting. On its face, her strategy seems to be backfiring … but she’s not cluing into this.

While Kelly’s not getting into the deets — we did get to the bottom of this ourselves … as we first told you, the true reason why she bolted from the “Today” set was, in fact, the dressing room thing. Namely, her not being satisfied with NBC’s rinky-dink rooms to get prepped.

Some have accused her of being a diva — but Hoda and co. appear to be falling on the sword for Kelly … profusely apologizing and begging her to come back, while also publicly acknowledging their dressing rooms do actually suck. It’s been a little cringe to watch, TBH.

Of course, Hoda and them have since invited Kelly back … and they’re hoping for a whole do-over, with refurbished and upgraded dressing rooms ready for the Destiny’s Child alum.

Based on what Kelly’s saying here … it sounds like she might, perhaps, take ’em up on it.
