Good for you Kelly!! And to think HollyWIERD accepts you even though you’re not a size 2. Oh yea, I’m first !ha-ha.
Love Kelly. Play my ‘Love Actually’ CD just to hear ‘The Trouble With Love’. She’s amazing singer.
I know alot of IDIOTS are going to come on today and talk about her ‘weight’ just to be A**H***S, but there are alot of us out there that see an amazing singer PERIOD!
@Auntie:
ITA! Hollywierd seems to forget that Marilyn Monroe was a size 14 and she was and still is the number one SEX SYMBOL EVER!!

I’m one proud Texas gal! Go Kelly!!!
SHES SOOOOOOOO FAT
ITS DISGUSTING!
normally i’m all for celebrities who are not stick thin but she looks fat in a really UNHEALTHY way…i bet she’s a candidate for gastric bypass with her weight gain..
Wow mela, you have an UNHEALTHY opinion on weight. Kelly may be somewhat overweight but she is far, far from a candidate for gastric bypass surgery. She is not obese by any means.
she looks pretty
Those legs are like tree trunks.
Kelly is amazing. She is to singing what character actors are to acting - she can express herself so naturally in so many different genres. And she makes it look easy. I can think of no other singer with this kind of artistic range.
she’s amazing. nothing can beat that voice.
No, Jan#8 YOU have an unhealthy opinion on weight. While Kelly may not be obese, she certainly is not a healthy weight for her age and size. There is an alarminglly growing number of obese teenagers and young adults in America. I believe the number is between 18-22%, and growing. So in a few years a quarter of American’s young adults will be obese!! Some of these people look up to Kelly and just because she sings well then it’s ok to be fat ?! At least that’s what some of the comments here implies. Kelly doesn’t have to be a size 2, but for her sake she should eat healthy because if she’s, ummm, “plump” now. Can you imagine what she’ll be like in 5-10 years when her metabolism slows down?
Are they going to air those awards here in the U.S?
stopobesity shut the hell you stupid heath nut freak, let Kelly be, she’s just a little chunky that’s all, i have read stories about people seeing Kelly at GMA, or meeting her in public, etc and they says she’s tiny, looks healthy and hey Kelly’s like hey you don’t have to be a size 0 to be successful but knowing Kelly I doubt she’s meaning it like “hey kids it’s all right to be fat”. And Kelly is not fat, just a little chunky. You and the others who say she is you have no self respect.
All haters please f*** off.. shes amazing!!! kelly is the best
all haters f off! shes amazing!!!!!! kelly rocks!
if you don’t think anything is wrong with her weight, then don’t bring it up to begin with.
Kelly rocks, and the new album is amazing.
CG#15 - are you a fat slob?
Leave the girl alone
No one can be perfect like me

It’s alarming that this can be considered an okay weight. It’s not. Personally, Our societies are so accustomed to seeing fat people that an average weight is vilified. personally, I get tired of hearing that I am too thin, when in fact I’m a normal average adult weight.
.
She’s obese and needs to lose weight. Even she knows it. Look at the cape she’s wearing to hide her body. I’m in T.O. and it’s really warm here today, so a cape isn’t necessary.
GET OVER IT PEOPLE!!!! The weight thing is really getting old. WE GET IT! You think she’s fat. Same ole sh*t every single time a picture is shown of her.
Jared, maybe just take away the options of leaving comments on her. because it’s just wash, rinse, repeat every f-n time. And as much as I like to see new pictures of her, the comments on this site ruin it for me. I guess I’ll go find the pics somewhere else. The people that come on this site disgust me!
Reminds me of another blog site I went on, where the blogger ripped her a new one for her weight. Yet, she has a small picture of herself on the side panel, and she was 10 times bigger than Kelly. I bet it’s the same as some of the people that come here to comment as well.
Irish girl, this was yesterday, when it was cold and raining in Toronto. She ain’t trying to hide sh*t.
Seriously, what the hell happened to Kelly? Seems like her weight gain was sudden.
Oh, Steve. Stop being so sensitive! Is that really you Kelly? Or Kelly’s Mom? Nooo, Steve (yeah, like that’s your real name) is the president of Kelly’s fan club. We get it. You’re a big fan. If you don’t like what’s being said of Kelly’s weight then don’t read her posts. Ba bye!
And who am I? That’s one secret I’ll never tell … You know you love me. XOXO, Gossip Girl
Great singer but still a fat chick. She will never reach the career heights she can if she does not change her look. She can say she does not care all she wants. Well guess what Kelly…..people will not care about you back. No one wants to pay to see a young fat artist.
@TWPumpkin:
Sadly I agree. Image means everything in the pop world. For all of you in denial, Kelly will continue to have mediocre sales as long as she continues to ignore he obvious weight gain and negative image. Sad, but true.
Wow! the godlike omniscience of some of these posts! I’m to believe that at least one of you knows the innermost workings of her mind and health better than she does.
Those of you still obsessed with the weight and health of a person you’ve probably never even met should take your concerns elswhere - like maybe a qualified therapist. Has it occurred to you that even as a flawed human being (as we all are - even you, Irish Girl) she is still way more accomplished than probably any one posting here? Yes, fat and all, she’s accomplished more in 27 years than most people will in their entire lives. Is this what’s fueling your obsession?
BLUE WHALE!!!!!!!!!!LOL!!!!!!!!
dorie- how the hell do you know that? All we are saying is that the girl is fat. In todays world much of a stars success is based on how they look. People do not like fat singers. So shut your stupid pie hole!
This young woman’s career will never be as hot as it could have been. She plainly cannot keep her weight stable. I don’t think she cares enough. The weight issue means a lot. It means photoshoots and magazine articles lost. They don’t put overweight people on the covers. Kelly has an amazing voice. So does Clay Aiken. You can easily see how their “issues” have made a negative impact on their superstardom.
@stopobesity:
Anyone saying gastric bypass surgery is the answer for someone who is not morbidly obese has an unhealthy attitude about weight. Gastric bypass is a serious operation. To suggest someone like Kelly needs it is sick. Does she need to lose weight yes. But anyone saying she should have gastric bypass is coming from an unhealthy attitude about weight.
Jan I never said Kelly should get gastric bypass. Those words were not in my post. To clarify, I do have people in my life who have received gastric and Kelly is getting to look as big as them.
For clarification, how much do you think she weighs? i’d say close to 200lbs.
And for your personal referene, I have a relatively healthy attitude about weight. You can catch me running almost every day of the week. I love to work out and I love to eat and think people like jennifer lopez are great examples of celebrities who are not “stick thin” but healthy.
Face it, Kelly Clarkson is way over weight and I’d bet on it that any doctor would tell her to drop some weight. It’s too much for her tiny frame.
To be honest, I see that picture of Kelly Clarkson and think that a person has got to TRY to be that fat.
I work out and eat WHATEVER I want and i’m no where near ever being the size of Kelly Clarkson, even at my heaviest.
Honestly…she is putting down some MAJOR calories EVERY day to maintain her weight. I wonder what is driving her to eat so much (because she can’t be THAT hungry to justifiy that sort of calorie intake), poor thing.
I think most of you people have forgotten that Kelly has suffered from bulimia already so to think she looks this great at her weight right now is great. She’s comfortable and she looks happy. It’s stuff like this, that led her to bulimia.
she just looks like trash lately. its like she doesnt even bother to brush her hair or wear flattering clothes or put on some blush. its just gorss. its not even about the weight, its about how she presents herself lately. its so trailer park tacky
I agree with Katie - fine if she feels good with this weight (yeah, ok), but try a bit harder to look like the part of a pop star. There are a lot of meaty girls (was that nice enough) who dress well to flatter their “curvy” figures. She should do the same and maybe people will back off about her looks.
@steve:
THANK YOU! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!!
@alyson:
Don’t bother KC! The idiots who continually bring up her weight won’t listen because they HAVE to say something negative about everything. Some people forget that the camera puts on 15 to 20 pounds on a person, hence the reason models have to be so rail thin. She’s a talented young lady and I’m happy for her.
SHE IS FAT!!!! STOP MAKING EXCUSES FOR HER!!!! IF SHE IS HAPPY BEING FAT THEN GREAT BUT SHE IS STILL FAT!!!!
Where can I see this show if I live in the US? Is it going to be streaming or ?? I would really love to see it. Kelly is a great singer, doesn’t really matter what her figure is like does it?
all ya’ll that are constantly going on and on about her weight are annoying! how insecure and jealous are u? ur probably bigger than her since all yall do is sit at the computer all day commenting on “how fat she is”. she never stood up front and claimed to be miss america she feels good about herself and what do you care anyway the main difference between u all and her is she doesnt waste her time commenting on your stupidity
u people that are constantly commenting about her weight are freakin annoying! you probably dont have any right to talk since all you do is sit at the computer telling everyone “shes fat”. she has never claimed to be more than what she is and shes content with that. the main difference between her and you idiots is she doesnt waste her time commenting about u…. you rock kelly, keep doin your thing!!!
She is overweight plain and simple. She would look and feel so much better if she got healthy. Go for a walk, go to the gym stop eating fried food or what ever she eats. She is much too young to look like that and be in the public eye as a performer.
HEY MO MO
SHE IS THE STAR NOT US. WE HAVE EVERY RIGHT IF SHE WANTS US TO BUY HER RECORDS.
She is an amazing singer and talented artist but she is overweight and that is unhealthy! You can say what you want but that’s the truth…
Kelly is amazing! She has came this far without the haters, she doesn’t need them now.
Kelly is uber talented. But she’s over weight. She has what a lot of most people don’t, and that’s $$$ the means to get a nutritionist, trainer, or heck, even a shrink. Kelly doesn’t have to be rail thin because I don’t think that’s her natural body type, but she also doesn’t have to be over weight either. I can understand her fans defending her weight, but don’t you think the extra weight will take a toll on her energy when she’s on stage and also on her health. If you don’t you’re lying to yourself.
She is a great singer, but that doesn’t excuse her from being called out. She is NOT fat. She is overweight, though. I think it’s a two way street. Pencil thin starlets put out a poor message on body image, but so do girls like Kelly. It is NOT healthy to be thick. Everyone needs to maintain a healthy weight if they want a good quality of life and longevity in their older age. And the truth is, in this industry being thin (or AT LEAST average) is important. Her record isn’t selling all that great and it’s not about the economy or her music. It’s about her image. She’s tarnishing her star power with her weight increase. This industry is all about image and she’s hurting herself there…
-there can be no doubt that Kelly is a HUGE JUMBO talent
U don’t have to be thin to be beautiful, look at jennifer hudson, she’s looks awesome, but kelly clarkson is looking very close to being obese. It’s a little unsettling that people would look up to someone projecting such an unhealthy image.
@Tands: sad but true. :(
I saw Kelly in concert last year. Honestly it was HORRIBLE. I felt like someone screamed at me the entire time. She was terrible in a live performance - she just bellowed.
what the heck is she wearing…..a crutin??
shes got talent yo! something everyone else is lacking in the industry. shes amazing and so brave to stand up for plus sizes. you go girl! keep up your amazing work. love you. xoxo
You go Kelly!!!
@TW PUMPKIN - What do you mean, “todays world”? I think you mean the pop music world, where, in spite of being a bit overweight Kelly is doing just fine. And so is Jordin Sparks and Jennifer Hudson. And have you ever heard of Luciano Pavarotti or Aretha Franklin? The truth is that people WILL pay money to see talented performers because if you care about music that’s what you go to the concert for. If you care more about trendiness and sex appeal fine, but don’t go forcing your value system on everyone else. After all, you only have to go to the shows you want to see.
Oh, and by the way Mela, you did say she was a candidate for gastric bypass - in post #7. And I’ve seen people who weigh 200 lbs - Kelly is nowhere close to that.
she shouldn’t wear jeans
she reminds me of mandy moore!
anybody here agrees?
@Irish Girl: really it does not matter what a standard is as long as the person is happy ( which she looks) and healthy thats all that matters people need to stop caring about standards and just be comfortable with whatever size they are, too skinny, average, chubby, whatever!
Tandy: Her album has been out a little over 3 months and she has sold well over a million worldwide. WTH are you talking about? Its selling quite well.
Why are people so nasty when commenting about her? Its strange. I mean, she is so sweet, works really hard, and sings amazing.
she’s cute!
