Kelly Clarkson on SNL

When are Kelly's octuplets due?

I don't think her voice is shot, Dave, I think the belt they cinched in round her midriff to pull it in was restricting her breathing. Kelly should either let it all out and be comfortable, or hit the Gym. Anyways, she's still 10 x better than anyone in this season.

I'm sure her weight gain has something to do with her voice, it seems like she's out of breath most of the time.

I'm not sure if weight has anything to do with it at all. It's not like the woman is 300 pounds. She probably does too many interviews, appearances, etc. Her voice needs to be rested.

how come she's been singing it lower than it's supposed to be? is she too lazy to hit the notes or did they edit her voice on the album?

she's still very talented, but sheesh. just sing the song the way you're supposed to.

Yeah, her voice is ragged (which is why she's lowered the song). Poor Kelly. She's the only Idol winner I don't hate. Well, apart from Ruben of course but that's only because I saw him in a hotel bar one night and was making eyes at him but his brother there so I couldn't go over and make out with Ruben but still I hold a candle for him.

She's still a gazillion times better than anyone on the show right now! She's doing promo for her album, she's probably singing constantly and bound to be strained.

I still adore her. She looks more like the average population than any of the other stick-figures celebrities we have to look at. I'm so tired of people acting like anyone bigger than a size 6 falls into the obese category. One of the trainers at my gym is not a small woman by any means (probably 5'3 or 5'4 and around 170 or 180 lbs) but she's a tri-athlete - she eats super healthy and works out constantly.

And I totally didn't mean to start ranting, I'm just saying that her bodyshape doesn't mean that she's not working out regularly.

Is she too lazy to hit the high notes? Did the picture go out on your television? You don't double in size by being inspired and energetic! No dancing, no wiggling, barely still lifting that one leg on the "I mean what I sing" leg stomp.

Her lack of enthusiasm while performing last night, as well as the more aweful performance on AI just show how bored she is with the same music we're bored with. I mean, a guitar changly verse, rockin chorus, one note pause to sing one syllable, then rock/verse/chorus.... it's the same formula on "Since you been gone"... .that was 7 seasons ago already.

If I had to make a living singing the same song with different words for 7 years, I'd be gettin huge myself. Actually, I've been pushing the same buttons on the same machine at work for 13 years now, maybe I've discovered something about myself today.

Thanks VFTW.

I'm with you leelee - I like my men with some beef and think women look sexier with some curves as well. I thought Kelly was looking mighty fine here - not the wisest fashion choice mind you but then again she never did know how to dress - she always looks like she got dressed in the dark.

Kelly's voice has been ragged for awhile now. She works way too damn hard. I wish she'd take it easy for awhile.
