Kelly Clarkson offers ‘Idol’ advice

As the original American Idol, Kelly Clarkson has the sort of insight on the show that no one else has.

And when she sat down with Access Hollywood’s Maria Menounos on the set of her new NASCAR commercial, Clarkson said that taking your lumps from the judges is all part of the process — and she understands it makes for good TV.

”It’s the best part, obviously. It’s the beginning shows, and people are just horrible,” she said.

Just like the rest of America, Kelly is getting a good laugh out of this year’s early Idol rounds.

‘You feel bad for laughing but at the same time, it’s like, `Are you joking?’ ” she added.

”A lot of people are giving Randy [Jackson], Paula [Abdul] and Simon [Cowell] some flak saying they’re too mean,” Menounos told Clarkson. “What do you think?”

”A little harsh,” Clarkson said. “They are nothing compared to what critics are going to say about you. If you think that’s mean, just stop now because it gets a lot worse.”

Of course, it’s nothing two Grammys and seven million albums sold can’t cure — just ask Clarkson.


Kelly Clarkson Revs Up for Nascar Deal

Pop star Kelly Clarkson is teaming up with the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing (NASCAR) for a series of events in 2007.

The Walk Away singer will perform a concert before one race meeting, appear in TV spots and she’ll also get involved with NASCAR’s charitable efforts.

It’s the first season-long marketing deal NASCAR officials have entered into with a music artist.

The Grammy Award winner will perform on 18 February (07) on a live Tribute to America special prior to the Daytona 500 race.

She will also serve as spokeswoman for the fourth annual NASCAR Day on 18 May (07) and she’ll wrap up the racing season by performing at the Nextel Cup’s Champions banquet on 3 December (07).


Kelly Clarkson Goes Punk

Pop star Kelly Clarkson’s new album will have a punk edge – thanks to rock legend Mike Watt, who is playing bass on the record.

Watt – currently performing with Iggy and the Stooges – agreed to the collaboration after hearing Clarkson’s powerful vocals.

And he wasn’t put off by her resume – because he hasn’t even heard of American Idol.

Watt says, “I heard that Kelly won some game show, but I was really impressed how she sang her a** off.”


Kelly Clarkson pumps up the bass

“American Idol” Kelly Clarkson has collaborated with punk rock veteran Mike Watt for her upcoming album.
Watt was recruited to play “fuzz bass, fills and solos (and) just making things fatter” on the album, Gigwise.com reported Monday.
Watt was the founding bassist form The Minutemen and is playing with the reunited Iggy and the Stooges.
“I ended up playing on six of the songs. I had no idea what it was going to be like, but it ended up being pretty interesting,” Watt told Gigwise.com. “I heard that Kelly won some game show but I was really impressed how she sang her ass off.”
“It was intense. I’m really glad I had the experience — it was trippy and everyone gave me much respect,” he said.


Coming this winter: American Idol karaoke game

Karoake Revolution is releasing an American Idol version of its game for PlayStation 2, complete with original American Idol tunes and judgements from Randy and Simon. Players can cover one of 40 songs, including Taylor Hicks’ “Do I Make You Proud”, Bo Bice’s “The Real Thing”, Ruben Studdard’s “Flying Without Wings”, and Kelly Clarkson’s “Breakaway”. You can also channel William Hung, by singing “She Bangs”. Once you’ve finished your song, Randy and Simon will have some remarks for you. Paula Abdul’s not involved, but you can cover her ’80s hit “Straight Up”.

This sounds like a game for the pre-teen set at slumber parties or their very first boy-girl parties. I can see it now: an 11-year-old girl’s night is ruined when Simon tells her she’s the worst singer ever.


When Did Kelly Clarkson Become So Hip?

Over the past few months, former Evanescence guitarist Ben Moody has found himself taking less and less flak from rock fans for producing part of Kelly Clarkson’s album Breakaway.

“Now it’s cool to like Kelly Clarkson, so I’m in the clear”, Moody said. “She’s kind of popular now.”

Clarkson, of course, has been popular in pop circles since winning “American Idol” four years ago. What Moody means is it’s slowly become de rigueur for artists and music fans outside of that world to cheer on Clarkson, who is nominated for three MTV Video Music Awards this year (see “Green Day, Gwen, Missy Nab Most Nominations For MTV Video Music Awards”) and will also perform at the show.

In an informal survey of rockers and other hipsters, nearly all of the artists polled copped to liking at least something about the Burleson, Texas, singer. (Sorry Kelly, System of a Down still have no idea who you are.)

So how did the 23-year-old former Red Bull girl transform herself from the next Jessica Simpson into a genuinely cool rock-and-roll singer?


Kelly Clarkson gets “hammered” on stage at a Metal Skool concert

Kelly Clarkson, the first and, really, the only American Idol, went to a Metal Skool concert Monday. There, she didn’t behave like the demure Texan we know and love. Instead, as Access Hollywood reports, “the world was introduced to the new Kelly”, as she “gets crazy.”

These are euphemisms for “being drunk off her ass,” and it’s odd that Access Hollywood is stepping around that, considering that in one of their two video clips, Kelly climbs on stage and chugs whiskey from a bottle.

At the concert, Kelly was in the crowd, when the lead singer noticed that she was in the audience. “You’re a pretty big star, so it’s gonna be fun. Come on up,” the he tells her. On stage, he explains why she’s there. “Under the circumstances of us needing a major fucking recording contract, we have to suck up to fucking stars like this,” he says. “There’s only one reason why a star of her caliber comes to a Metal K. It’s to make her image more fuckin’ edgy, dude.”

Someone brings over a bottle of whiskey, and she starts to chug it with the lead singer of Yellowcard, Ryan Key, and then runs around the stage with the bottle still in her hand before peeling off her outer shirt, revealing just a plain white shirt. She then sings a word, basically, and the Metal Skool guy says, “Kelly, you are hammered, because that was not the key I sang.”

In the second video, Kelly feels up Ryan Key as she’s dancing around him, sings Sweet Child O’ Mine with the everyone on stage, and plays some air guitar. Even when “hammered,” Kelly can sing. Simon Cowell must be very proud.


Kelly Clarkson still America’s No. 1 “Idol”

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) – As hard as it may seem to counter critics who chide “American Idol” as little more than glamorized karaoke, original “Idol” Kelly Clarkson offered a convincing argument to the contrary in front of a capacity crowd Tuesday night.

Singing “Breakaway” from the middle of the Verizon Wireless Amphitheater accompanied by nothing more than an acoustic guitar, it was a chance for the multiplatinum phenom to get up close and personal with a crowd that has helped make her America’s sweetheart songbird since winning the televised competition in 2002.

“Take a risk, take a chance, make a change and breakaway…” she sang, the lyrics to the title track of her sophomore release soaring into the nighttime sky and offering an explanation, of sorts, for the 70-minute set that they would help bring to a close. In stark contrast to the cheeky dance moves and packaged pretenses that mark the “American Idol” television empire, Clarkson seemed determined to stand on the merits of her soulful tones and compelling vocal eloquence, rather than the upbeat frenzy of her many radio hits, including standout closer “Since U Been Gone.”

AC/DC’s “You Shook Me All Night Long” rattled the rafters as the house lights went out, and the deafening roar of the predominantly female crowd reached a fever pitch, but Clarkson subdued the venue by opening the set with the raspy texture and moody ambiance of “Addicted.” The midtempo bounce and punchy chorus of “Behind These Hazel Eyes” offered an invigorating rush that carried through bluesy rocker “Maybe” and the pop-rock, feel-good anthem “Gone.”

It was the middle of the 14-song set, though, that offered the best insight into where Clarkson may be heading as “Because of You” exposed a fragile dynamic to her pristine vocals and charming pop sensibilities. When a curtain dropped and exposed a swampy, Southeastern twilight — complete with an onstage dock — Clarkson’s passionate cover of Ray LaMontagne’s “Shelter” and soulful run through the title track of her debut release, “Thankful,” offered every indication that the singer is more than just a made-by-TV nightingale. A zydeco vibe fueled “Home,” which culminated into a hard rocker that offered the perfect lead to Clarkson’s breakout single “Miss Independent.”

So inspired was the performance, and so capable and impressive the vocals, it was easy to forget that Clarkson was discovered by a nationwide TV audience. That is, until she performed “Go,” a throwaway track she claimed to have wrote “with Ford,” which was accompanied by a longform commercial masked as a music video airing on the background screens.

Corporate sponsorship notwithstanding, Kelly Clarkson far exceeded her “American Idol” expectations.
