I’ll admit it. I voted for Justin Guarini. I really thought he was going to win it all. It was the very first season of American Idol and I fell in love with the show instantly. And I fell in love with Justin Guarini. I’m not ashamed. He was talented! He was cute! He had that…hair! But halfway through the season, the real star emerged. Kelly Clarkson was the cute one from Texas with the amazing voice. SHE went on to win it all. She is still the face of American Idol. The very first winner.
Kelly’s been away from the pop spotlight for awhile. She had some serious mega hits including, my favorite, “Since You’ve Been Gone.” But then she left and did some country. Her duet with Jason Aldeen, “Don’t You Wanna Stay,” topped the country charts. But what is most exciting is that she’s back with a brand new pop song. “Mr. Know It All” is a fun, tell-em-off anthem. She’s mad at the boy. She’s mad at the tabloids. It’s time to sing about it! You go, girl!
Here’s the brand new video. Happy Friday.
