Kelly Clarkson “Already Gone” Video Plus Beyoncé Controversy
The music video for Kelly Clarkson’s new single “Already Gone” has been released and she’s none too pleased about the whole thing even though she looks really beautiful. If you heard the song and felt like you were having déjà vu you aren’t imagining things. The music for the song is remarkably similar to that of Beyoncé’s song “Halo.” This isn’t a case of Kelly copying someone else – both singers got the shaft. Kelly that she… More »

Kelly Clarkson Performs on Saturday Night Live – Video
American Idol season one winner, Kelly Clarkson, performed two songs off of her new album All I Ever Wanted during her appearance on Saturday Night Live yesterday. I have to say that, as a plus-size woman myself, I’m perfectly fine with Kelly’s weight but I do wish that she could find some more flattering clothing. This blue shirt/dress/disaster did not look good on her in my opinion but I digress… Kelly first performed “My Life Would Suck Without You”… More »

Kelly Clarkson “All I Ever Wanted” Out Today – Review
Kelly Clarkson’s new album “All I Ever Wanted” will be released today but you can listen to it over on AOL for a limited time. I know a lot of us have already heard most or all of the songs but I like doing album reviews so why not?
