Kelly Clarkson
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.

And while most of the contestants have been relative unknowns, they have gone up against established stars such as Jewel and Sisqo — who have already been eliminated — as well as Bolton, who has been repping his home state of Connecticut.“I find it funny that people are not sure what I’m doing in the contest,” said the New Haven native. “I was excited to do it.

It’s kind of brought me back to my roots in trying to create something that I think the world will enjoy … You learn, aspiring to be an artist in this business, that there are a lot of great singers out there, but they don’t have careers if they don’t have hit songs.
