Shark Named 'Kelly Sharkson' Revealed on Kelly Clarkson's Show

Through Finn & Friends, the couple behind the gesture seeks to build empathy for sharks, channeling book sales to conservation causes.

Overview

  • Andrea and Darrell Clulow disclosed the shark’s name during the Jan. 15 episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show.
  • The couple helped tag the female shark during a research expedition last summer before adopting it.
  • They are promoting Finn & Friends, a children’s book and organization focused on teaching that sharks are valuable, not monstrous.
  • The book features interactive elements including a word search and pages for kids to draw sea animals.
  • A portion of proceeds will support shark research, ocean conservation, and education, reflecting an effort to counter fear after a widely reported 2022 Australian attack.
