There’s a Wal-Mart in America where you may just catch a glimpse of your favorite celebrities.
Kelly Clarksonand the stars ofYellowstonespinoff1923frequent the same Montana location of the superstore, and Clarkson spoke about it withHelen MirrenonThe Kelly Clarkson Show.
While Mirren, 77, spends time in Butte temporarily to film the Paramount+ series, Clarkson lives on a Montana ranch about an hour “higher up in the mountains.”
“There’s one store in Butte, and it’s, like, Wal-Mart,” said Clarkson, 40. “So I love that Dame Helen has been to Butte.”
Clarkson added that, though she’s about an hour’s drive, that’s the closest store to her ranch. “That’s where I go to get groceries, cause where I live is like super remote. So, that’s where I drive to get milk.”
It turns out, Mirren is no stranger to the very same store, telling the singer and host: “I know that Wal-Mart well. I know it like the back of my hand.”

For Clarkson, the shared shopping experience was monumental. “I just love that you’ve walked the aisles of that Wal-Mart,” she said with excitement. “It’s just out of pocket for me.”
“Butte has this amazing history, an old mining town, as you know. When you look at the history of Butte, there were people from Moldavia there, there were Welsh guides, there were Scottish people, there were Irish people, people from the Basque region,” Mirren said. “So, that’s what the West was like — all of these different accents and cultures.”

Because of Butte’s melting pot history, Mirren plays her character, Cara Dutton, as an Irish woman.
1923has one season so far. A second season of theYellowstoneprequel is expected — though season 1 just concluded in early 2023.
