Kelly Clarkson refuses to fall prey to body shaming and dares to be challenged on her weight gain
Becoming America’s sweetheart after winning American Idol in 2002, Kelly Clarkson is unapologetically happy with her physique and refuses to be caught up in the beauty circus that demands physical perfection of celebrities.
Clarkson, the multiple award-winning singer and TV host, suggests that artists change the narrative from one that currently allows aesthetic judgements to one that values talents above else.
Only 20 years old when she impressed the hard-to-please Simon Cowell, Clarkson–then a fledgling in the entertainment world–experienced a boom in her career, collecting numerous successes along the way.
