Kelly Clarkson In US Weekly

Posted on by

Kelly Clarkson Dishes On Weight Loss In US Weekly. Sure, Kelly Clarkson isn’t technically a country artist, but she spends so much time with some of our favorites (Reba McEntire…Jason Aldean…) that it can feel like she is at least sort of country. So, its interesting to us over here at CMNB that Kelly has found her way onto the cover of US Weekly. The 30-year old American Idol alum is dishing out the details on her recent weight loss and new fit shape. And why the weight loss you may (or may not) be wondering to yourself? Kelly credits her new found desire to shed the extra pounds to her developing relationship with Nashville-based beau, Brandon Blackstock, also known as Reba’s stepson and further known as the guy that manages Blake Shelton. Okay, its great she lost some weight, way to go Kelly! What we really want to hear about is what new music she’ll be making now that she is so securely embedded in the Nashville elite. I guess only time will tell…do you want Clarkson to release country music? Let us know below!
