It may be hard to believe but Kelly Clarkson won American Idol thirteen years ago! And she’s as relevant and powerful as ever, with a new song and a strong sense of self to go along with it. Recently the notoriously controversial and negative, Katie Hopkins, had some disparaging remarks about Kelly’s figure and she came back with the most perfect responses.
The British reality TV star implied that Kelly wasn’t holding baby weight from the birth of her daughter River Rose, but instead was eating too much. “She’s tweeted something nasty about me? That’s because she doesn’t know me. I’m awesome! It doesn’t bother me. It’s a free world. Say what you will,” Kelly told Heat magazine, as reported by Us Weekly. “I’ve just never cared what people think,” she added. “It’s more if I’m happy and I’m confident and feeling good, that’s always been my thing. And more so now, since having a family — I don’t seek out any other acceptance.” Yas, Kelly, shut her down and be proud of the talented woman you are!
