“Am I overwhelming you with my energy?” Watch Kell…

Is there a sweeter or more wholesome human alive in 2024 than Kelly Clarkson? The Texan singer/songwriter won the first season of American Idol, delivered one of the greatest pop singles of the Noughties with the brilliant Since U Been Gone, and now hosts her own chat show, during which she has memorably covered songs by Metallica, Soundgarden, Blink-182, The Offspring, Radiohead, Whitesnake and more in the ‘Kellyoke’ section of the show.  

This week, Clarkson had Weezer‘s Rivers Cuomo and Patrick Wilson as her guests, alongside actress Brooke Shields, and honestly, we’re not sure if we’ve ever seen anyone exhibit more happiness. 

First, Clarkson gets to perform Weezer’s ‘Blue‘ album classic Say It Ain’t So with her house band, Cuomo and Wilson, the drummer switching to guitar for the occasion: to say that the host is a bit excited is an understatement. After pulling off a killer version of the song, Clarkson sinks to her knees, throws ‘The Horns’ at her band, and exclaims, “I’ve literally never been cool in my life until now!”
