‘American Idol’ Winners: Where Are They Now? From Kelly Clarkson to Laine Hardy

Kelly Clarkson is continuing to bring us her incredible covers series, Kellyoke.

In a candid conversation with Demi Lovato, Kelly Clarkson opened up about her depression amid her divorce from Brandon Blackstock. The conversation occurred on the Wednesday, June 24, episode of the former American Idol winner’s talk show, The Kelly Clarkson Show. In the episode, Clarkson opened up to Lovato, who was a guest, about her mental health and her “daily” struggle with depression.

Demi Lovato dropped by The Kelly Clarkson Show on Wednesday (June 23) and it's safe to say the chat was a mutual love fest with host Kelly Clarkson.

Kelly Clarkson and Demi Lovato praised each other for being outspoken about their mental health struggles.“I have similar issues, and I suffer from depression,” the American Idol alum, 38, told the “Anyone” singer, 27, on The Kelly Clarkson Show on Wednesday, June 24. “I think a lot of people, especially in the creative world, or just from childhood, you’ve been kind of trained to, like, just keep going and you can handle it.

Kelly Clarkson gushed about the experience of being a mother less than two weeks after she and Brandon Blackstock called it quits.“There is no greater gift than being a mama, and that comes with countless roles,” the American Idol alum, 38, told viewers during Carter’s ShowHER Love virtual baby shower on Thursday, June 18.

Kelly Clarkson and her band are taking fans back to the ’60s with a cover of “Be My Baby”.

Hollywood is stepping up and out to give Juneteeth the recognition it rightfully deserves, and Kelly Clarkson is no exception. The talk show host and first American Idol winner chose wisely when picking the song she wanted to perform on June 19th during her much beloved ‘Kellyoke’ segment, paying homage to one of the greatest Black artists of all time.

Kelly Clarkson is weathering the often treacherous waters of divorce and has been looking to close friends for support amid her public split from husband Brandon Blackstock, according to a new report. “Blake [Shelton] has been supportive and the friend she has needed, as always,” a source close to the “American Idol” alum told Us Weekly on Wednesday.

This Voice judge is no longer entertaining anyone’s opinions about her body—except her own. Years after Kelly Clarkson’s body shamers compared “naked” models to the star in an effort to get her to mimic them, the 38-year-old recent divorcée is opening up about that unnecessary pressure.
