The reporters are always so predictable as Kelly crushing I Know You Won't every time she performs it.

I thought you were being facetious with your earlier post.

Looooooooooolololol at Kev  seriously boy her ovaries have been screaming babies since she hooked up with bb. Its been coming a long time. It susprises me that one could be selfish to hate on her for wanting a family over releasing more albums. |
I can totally see them ringing up his ex tho. They are so desperate and vain. Disgusting 
And what is this pregnancy meltdown? Some of y'all are acting like the bitches at the FC, it's her life. The thing that most people regret when they die is having spent to much time on work and career. I don't think Kelly's last thoughts will be "Damn, my country record could have totally been #1 fifty years ago".
But if she doesn't have a family, she will have lots of regrets later on in life.

According to the parallels with Pink's discography, we should be getting a baby+love album sometime soon anyway.

fff I'm screaming over the meltdowns.
Like, Kelly endured a lot over the years. The very least we can do is support what SHE wants. While I'm conflicted about chances of a tour next year, I can wait (sides, I need to earn a M&G for my first concert with her anyway).

Interview in Time Magazine. Someone said it comes out on Friday. Short videos at the source.

Kelly Clarkson: ‘Not A Feminist’
The singer-songwriter talks about Christmas, working with famous in-laws and why she's not a feminist.
Don’t call the singer of Miss Independent a feminist. In an interview with TIME, Kelly Clarkson says she doesn’t consider herself one.
“I wouldn’t say [I'm a] feminist, that’s too strong. I think when people hear feminist it’s just like, ‘Get out of my way I don’t need anyone’,” she says. “I love that I’m being taken care of, and I have a man that’s an actual leader. I’m not a feminist in that sense… but I’ve worked really hard since I was 19, when I first auditioned for Idol.”
Then again, the former American Idol winner is not afraid of contradictions. After all, she was a Ron Paul supporter, (but voted for Obama twice.) She’s a pop singer, but feels more at home with country-music folks because she thinks they’re nicer. She calls her music “ballsy.” And although she’s just 30—and it’s only just November—she’s already releasing a Christmas album. “[This] is my favorite album,” she says, “which is hilarious, cause it’s Christmas songs, but it is.”
Clarkson, who recently married, also showed off the copy of Jane Austen’s ring that her now-husband Brandon Blackstock had made for her and talked about working with her new stepmother-in-law Reba McEntire.
You’ve just released a Christmas album, Wrapped in Red. Isn’t that something artists do in the twilight of their careers?
Yeah, greatest-hits albums, too. But a Christmas album is fun because you don’t get labeled anything. So there’s rock ’n’ roll on there, there’s R&B, there’s country, there’s pop stuff. I have a hard time being cheesy, but you can be cheesy with Christmas music, so I felt I could be vulnerable. It’s my favorite album.
That you’ve ever made?
That I’ve ever made. Which is hilarious, ’cause it’s Christmas songs.
In the 10 years since you broke out, female singers have dominated the charts, but they’ve also become more provocative. How have you resisted that?
There’ve always been women in the industry who have pushed the envelope — Cher, Madonna, Annie Lennox. I don’t think anything different is going on. People say, “Oh, you never go for the whole sex-appeal thing.” Well, I don’t ever not go for it, either. I just go for who I am. People in the industry have tried douche moves with me, but of course they’re going to, because they make money when girls do that.
Do you have any advice for Miley Cyrus?
I honestly don’t, because we’re nothing alike — I wasn’t a child star. I have no idea what her life was like or what she goes through.
Who do you go to for advice?
I’ve always been kind of the gypsy girl, even from when I was a kid. I was really bad at time management and knowing my limits, touring-wise or workwise. Reba [McEntire] really helped me. It is funny, I do relate way more to country stars. Sometimes I’m at a pop event, and I love all the artists there, but — I don’t know if my personality’s just different; I’m super open, and I’ll talk to anyone — but sometimes I feel everybody is too cool for school.
Are you saying people in country are nicer than people in pop?
I am absolutely 100 percent saying that… And I love pop music and the people in pop music.
Let me get this straight: Reba is your stepmother-in-law. And she’s married to your manager. And you sang with her on this album?
It doesn’t really weird me out that she’s my mother-in-law, ’cause we’ve been friends for years. Although I guess that’s weird. She has seen me at my worst, my best, my awkward moments; she knows I say everything that’s in my head. She’s really been helpful in my career. It is very incestuous, though.
You’re a stepmom. How are you preparing for that?
I’m part of a family that’s been divorced, married, divorced, married, so it’s fitting for me to have stepkids. Brandon [Blackstock] and I have already been living together, and we already do the soccer games and the homework and the equestrian events and the recitals. I love it so much, I want a baby. I’ve never wanted a baby in my life.
Do you consider yourself a feminist?
No, I wouldn’t say feminist — that’s too strong. I think when people hear feminist, it’s like, “Get out of my way, I don’t need anyone.” I love that I’m being taken care of and I have a man that’s a leader. I’m not a feminist in that sense… but I’ve worked really hard since I was 19, when I first auditioned for Idol.
How do you normally vote?
I voted Republican at first. And then I voted for Barack the last two times. I feel like the parties have switched on what they set out to do. I’m probably more of a libertarian. I was for Ron Paul. I just love the guy that says it like it is and isn’t trying to skirt around things and make them look pretty so he can get voted for. I’ve never been the polished type.

I know some people will have a problem with the whole feminist thing, but she has stated that several times over the years.

Don't see what's wrong with her clarifying things. Feminism is such a touchy subject even though there are some who take the thing way too far.

She's definitely a feminist but I don't think she want to associate herself with the radical feminists. And bleh at the political question. I guess she had to answer it since she was asked.
Mess at the meltdowns!!! Poor Karma. I like him. Hope he comes back soon.

I understand what she is trying to say about feminism, but "Not a Feminist" is not a great headline, hope there isn't too much backlash The problem is that everyone has different views on what exactly feminism is. There are definitely major branches of feminism that I think need to sit the **** down,.
