Kelly Clarkson

Uh . . . Benefield is in heaven today!  Saturday night at the CMA Music Festival, Kelly Clarkson previewed a brand new country single.  Take a listen to "Tie it Up!"  I love it (no suprise) and I think you will too.  LISTEN!

I knew Chad would be happy to hear this when I sprung it on him this morning. Kelly Clarkson is recording a Christmas album! Country singer Ronnie Dunn let the cat of the bag when he told his fans on his Facebook page he is singing one of the tunes with her...

Seven contestants remain on American Idol and odds are looking more and more like this is most definitely a girl's year to win.  Of the seven contestants remaining, five of them are female and just two are male.  And, let's be honest, Idol has had far more success with its female winners than it has its male champs anyway.  Is any Idol out there putting up the sales numbers and topping the charts

Kelly Clarkson sure is in love. Her fiancé is Reba McEntire's stepson and Blake Shelton's manager Brandon Blackstock, so she's certainly marrying into a country family. The singer shared a cute photo of herself and Blackstock while on vacation in Hawaii and on Valentine's Day no less.

Today, the performance of the National Anthem at the Super Bowl is just as big a media spectacle as the half-time show and the game itself.  Huge stars are asked to deliver rousing renditions of "The Star-Spangled Banner" as the whole world watches to see if they mess up the words, lip-synch or perform live.  In the last few years, we have seen amazing renditions by Kelly Clarkson, The D

I haven't posted a shameless Kelly Clarkson video in a few weeks, so I am long overdue.  Okay.  I have a handful songs that I consider some of my favorite of all time.  On that list are songs like "Purple Rain" by Prince, "Take My Breath Away" by Berlin and more I will share in a future blog.  But, another song on that list is most definitely "Foolish Games" by Jewel.

Chills.  Tears.  And now I have to put this into words?  What??  Okay, let's make this easy.  WATCH THIS!!!  There were some awesome performances today at President Barack Obama's inauguration, but Kelly Clarkson's performance of "My Country, Tis of Thee" was a monstrous homerun.  Check it out!

Last Friday, we held our 2nd annual Big BKR Smackdown and let you guys pick YOUR favorite songs of 2012.  We took thousands of votes over the course of 12 hours until we finally narrowed the Top 92 songs of the year down to the #1 song of the 2012.  Check out your Top Ten by CLICKING HERE!  As the year officially comes to its close, I have decided to share my picks for the Best Songs of 2012.  Som

Why didn't they think of this sooner? You have Vince Gill, one of the greatest voices of all time, and a guy who will gladly duet with anyone, doing a duet with Kelly Clarkson, one of the greatest voices of all time.

So, I told y'all over the weekend that Kelly Clarkson had gotten engaged to Brandon Blackstock. Well, she's tweeted a photo of her ring and oh my goodness, that puppy is Hugalacious!! (Yes, it needed its own word, ha!) So, go ahead... take a look! But, I'd put on some sunglasses first!

She was just quoted talking about how ready she was to be married! Well, she got what she wanted, a walk down the aisle! But, which country starlet is it?!?

I'm afraid when Chad reads this he may just kill over. We all know that Kelly Clarkson is the apple of his eye, but it looks like she's looking at someone else!
