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!
