Kelly Clarkson posted this on WhoSay yesterday. Guaranteed she didn’t take a long time to write it. Not because it’s bad, or anything like that. On the contrary, it is straightforward and passionate – she maybe had one person read it over and then threw it up, shaking a little with rage but feeling better that she did something about it. Full Story

It might actually be impossible to replicate the coolness that is Kelly Clarkson.   When she wins awards, she still geeks out like a newbie – but there’s never any doubt that she knows she deserves it.

I Do Not Hook Up is on my running playlist right now. Full Story
