Quote

I'm from a small town where everybody always has something to say - you shouldn't sing secular music, you shouldn't do this or do that. A ton of shouldn'ts.

In Texas, we practically come out of the womb in jeans.

I love healthy stuff and junk an equal amount. Whatever I'm craving, I go for it. I'm never trying to lose weight - or gain it. I'm just being.

Image
My friends and family are my support system. They tell me what I need to hear, not what I want to hear and they are there for me in the good and bad times. Without them I have no idea where I would be and I know that their love for me is what's keeping my head above the water.

The fact that I've managed to find a husband who understands and respects everything I do is astonishing.
Kelly Clarkson
Image
I stand before you and my heart is in your hands, And I don't know how, I'd survive without your kiss, 'cause you've given me a reason to exist
Kelly Clarkson
Image
I've just never cared what people think. It's more if I'm happy and I'm confident and feeling good, that's always been my thing.

Everybody always says that I'm the girl next door, which makes me think that y'all must have a lot of weird next-door neighbours.

My experiences remind me that it's those black clouds that make the blue skies even more beautiful.

I'm not that girl who's really concerned with it. I've dated a bit and it's just draining to me. If it's not going to happen natural, obviously it's going to be someone in the industry because that's the only time people ever really see me.

Confidence is seen, not heard.

I'm cute - and God I hate that. Because that's not cool. I'm like your niece, and nobody wants to date their niece. It's the chubby cheeks. The whole reason people voted for me on American Idol is because I'm an everyday, normal girl.

I was a poor kid, and my mom was a single mother of three.

Books have always been important to me - my mom was a first grade teacher, so I grew up reading all the time.

Really, what I try to instill in my fans is to be healthy and happy. I have no desire to be super-skinny.
Kelly Clarkson

I have a big fear of change, or negative change, anyway. I'm basically the same person I was when I won 'Idol,' or when I was 10.
Kelly Clarkson

If I can wake up everyday before I die and know that I don't have to serve anyone food or drinks, I will be happy!

It's amazing to impact people's lives - it's a cool thing to have the spotlight and be able to reassure people, to say, It's OK to be you.

I’m from a small town so, like, everyone’s married with children or about to have children. So it’s a little hard when you go home and people are like - and that’s why people think I’m gay - because they’re like ‘Why aren’t you married?’ And I’m like, ‘it doesn’t happen for everyone right off the bat.’

My kids are obviously growing up very privileged, but I want them to have a servant's heart. We do community service as a family, and I also call them out on things like getting impatient when they stand in line - because they hardly ever have to. But that's just the reality of what they were born into.

Music isn’t just heard, it is felt.
