appearing on “The Kelly Clarkson Show.” “Nine guests canceled because somebody got sick. So … I called up my chef friend and I said, ‘We’re not doing Thanksgiving.'” According to the lifestyle guru, she has cooked several turkeys on various TV programs and was getting tired of preparing the dish anyway. “I’ve also cooked 14 turkeys already for my TV show, and I still have to [cook] one more turkey on the ‘Today’ show,” Stewart continued. “So forget it.”Stewart did, in fact, stop by the famed morning show as a part of its eighth annual All-Star Thanksgiving special and dished out her way of making “the juiciest roasted turkey in the world.”When asked by Clarkson, 41, if she was “all turkeyed out,” the mogul responded in the affirmative. “I am all turkeyed out,” Stewart agreed, laughing.

Stewart still plans to score several delicious meals on turkey day, however. “I made a plan,” Stewart said. “Friends, of course, invited me to their home, so I’m going to about five different homes to taste different courses.”“Those friends must be so stressed out,” Clarkson laughed. “Oh, I hope so,” Stewart responded with glee. “If you were coming to my house, I would for sure lie and say I cooked it and have somebody else do it,” the “Since U Been Gone” singer admitted.Even though the media mogul has decided to cancel her Thanksgiving dinner, Stewart will leave her luxurious 153-acre estate, Cantitoe Corners, in Westchester County, New York, open to the public.

The residence, which often appears in the lifestyle juggernaut’s sizzling Instagram, was acquired by Stewart in 2000 for a whopping $15.2 million.
