Kelly Clarkson Biography

Kelly Clarkson is one of the most popular and richest Pop Singer who was born on April 24, 1982 in Fort Worth, Texas, United States. Pop singer who gained recognition for winning the first American Idol competition in 2002. Her debut single “A Moment Like This” became the song of the year, as well. In 2018, she became the judge on The Voice

She and Carrie Underwood both gained fame after winning American Idol.

Kelly Brianne Clarkson (born April 24, 1982) is an American singer-songwriter, actress, author, and television personality. She rose to fame in 2002, after winning the first season of American Idol, which earned her a record deal with RCA Records. Clarkson’s debut single, “A Moment Like This”, topped the US Billboard Hot 100 chart and became the country’s best-selling single of 2002. It was followed by the release of her debut studio album, Thankful (2003), which debuted atop the US Billboard 200. Trying to reinvent her image, Clarkson parted ways with Idol management and shifted to pop rock music for her second album, Breakaway (2004). After numerous top 40 radio number-one singles, such as “Since U Been Gone” and “Because of You”, the album sold over 12 million copies worldwide and earned Clarkson two Grammy Awards.

Jon Lisi from PopMatters cited Clarkson as one of the forces of female domination in pop music of the 2000s. He explained that “Clarkson’s anti- sexual image appealed to those who were uncomfortable with Britney Spears’ overt exhibitionism. When Clarkson performed “Since U Been Gone” at the 2005 MTV Video Music Awards, for instance, she only showed her midriff, and it was clear that she was marketing herself to an alternative group of young females who liked pop music’s conventional sound but didn’t want to be confronted with sexual imagery.” Mickey Rapkin of Billboard magazine, who called Clarkson a role model and compared her vocals to golden-era Aretha Franklin, stated that “[Clarkson] has never shied away from speaking her mind, whether in her propulsive pop anthems or on her filter-free Twitter feed.” Clarkson has also been an influence on numerous other singer-songwriters. Singer Demi Lovato, who cited Clarkson as her musical inspiration, said “[Clarkson] stays out of the tabloids. You hear about her through how talented her music is, not what’s going on in her personal life.” Country music singer Kelsea Ballerini cites Clarkson as her inspiration and her most favorite female artist of all time, calling her “the best vocalist in the whole world.”

She was born to Jeanne and Joseph Clarkson, and has a stepfather named Jimmy Taylor as well as a brother named Jason and sister named Alyssa. She married Brandon Blackstock in 2013, but filed for divorce in 2020. The couple had a daughter named River Rose in June of 2014 and a son named Remington Alexander in April of 2016.

In an interview in 2012, Clarkson referred the inaugural season as “ghetto”, explaining: “On our season we were like kids in camp. Nobody knew what to do. The show was ever-changing every day. They did one season of Pop Idol in the UK but America is a very different market. They dropped us off in a mall and said ‘find some clothes to wear on national television’. I am maybe the closest to white trash you can get. What do I buy? White pants I guess? I definitely looked like a cocktail waitress.” Clarkson went on to win the competition on September 4, 2002, at the Kodak Theatre (now Dolby), earning 58% of the votes against runner-up Justin Guarini.
