Live Performance: Kelly Clarkson joins The Wreckers on stage.
March 14, 2007 — The audience at Billy Bob's in Ft. Worth, Tex., experienced one of those rare magical live moments when The Wreckers were joined on stage by pop star Kelly Clarkson for their song "Cigarettes." According to the club's general manager, Robert Gallagher, "Saturday night's show with The Wreckers at Billy Bob's was one of the most electric nights I have ever seen. The 4000-plus crowd was going nuts for The Wreckers and out comes Kelly Clarkson to sing with them and the crowd came completely unglued. It's absolute magic when something like that happens. The crowd that night will never forget the excitement felt. It was a very special treat."
Online, fans have been buzzing about the surprise duet since it happened. There has been a flurry of activity on both Kelly Clarkson's and The Wreckers' message boards, where threads on the "Texas Surprise" have exceeded 15 pages of raves. You can catch the performance on YouTube.com, where it became one of the site's most viewed and highest rated entertainment videos yesterday. The Wreckers' brand new single, "Tennessee," debuted on the R&R chart last week.
