Biography

Kelly Clarkson - an adorable twenty year old young woman from Texas. Is a true American Idol. Known as Kellbell by her friends, she has goofy personality that everyone just falls in love with. Don't let that fool you, because boy, can she sure sing!

When Kelly was younger, she wanted to be a marine biologist, at least until she saw Jaws. While living in L.A. two years ago, she was an extra on the television show called Sabrina, the Teenage Witch, and was paid to record demo tapes for Hollywood record producers. She does promotional work for Red Bull by passing out free samples and works as a cocktail waitress at a comedy club in Arlington, Texas.

When asked why she should be Idol-ized, this beautiful talented singer said "I have the pipes, I have the stage presence, and I have the drive,". Singing isn't Kelly's only interest, she has always wanted to pick up on the guitar because she thinks it's just the coolest instrument.

Her lucky charm is a silver bracelet inscribed with the words 'Own the Power', given to the semi-finalists on American Idol by Paula Abdul.

"Like every other girl in the world, my most embarrassing moment had to do with a guy completely turning me down. His loss!" as Kelly giggles when asked what her most embarrassing moment was.

Kelly's favourite singer is, "Reba McEntire. What a voice!", and her favourite song is "Kissing You" by Des'ree. The first concert that she had ever attended was a Celine Dion concert.

When asked what she would change about herself, she simply said she doesn't need to. "I'm happy with myself. Of course, there are little things here and there that I wish were smaller and bigger, but I don't know one person who is perfectly satisfied with their physical appearance."

This 20-year-old single Texan girl from Burleson has come a long, long way, and with the help of you and me, she became the American Idol. Why did she want to be the American Idol? "Being on a stage in front of millions is the biggest rush for me. It's like I'm kind of nervous at first, but once I get out there I never want to leave the stage. I also think that the industry could use a little class."
