Kelly Clarkson Covers "You're No Good" By Linda Ronstadt during 'Kellyoke.'
Courtesy PhotoKelly Clarkson kicked off the Tuesday (Dec. 7) episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show with a sultry version of Linda Ronstadt‘s “You’re No Good.”
Wearing a printed blue-and-red dress, America’s original Idol powered through the 1974 classic with support from a trio of backing vocalists. “Feelin’ better now that we’re through/ Feelin’ better, ’cause I’m over you/ I learned my lesson, it left a scar/ Now I see how you really are/ You’re no good/ You’re no good/ You’re no good/ Baby, you’re no good,” she sang on the first verse and chorus.
Clarkson’s able tackling of Ronstadt’s smash hit, which hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in February 1975, follows her recent and varied “Kellyoke” covers of Ariana Grande’s “7 Rings,” Pixies’ “Where Is My Mind?” and “Welcome to the Black Parade” by My Chemical Romance — as well as her very own NBC holiday special, Kelly Clarkson Presents: When Christmas Comes Around.
The hour-long festivity featured the pop star performing numerous tracks off her latest holiday-themed studio set, also titled When Christmas Comes Around…, including duets with Grande (“Santa, Can’t You Hear Me”), Brett Eldredge (“Under the Mistletoe”) and Leslie Odom, Jr. (“O Holy Night”).
The “Underneath the Tree” singer also teamed up with Grande last week to give fans an epic tease of Jimmy Fallon’s new musical variety show, That’s My Jam. Facing off against her collaborator and fellow The Voice judge, Clarkson put her ample “Kellyoke” skills to use by covering a rapid-fire round of pop diva mainstays such as Shania Twain’s “Any Man of Mine,” Alanis Morissette’s “You Oughta Know” and Toni Braxton’s “Unbreak My Heart.”

Mustard has seemingly hit back at comments from Drake‘s producer Gordo, with a little help from JAY-Z.
Gordo, who worked on several Drizzy albums including $ome $exy $ongs 4 U, For All the Dogs and Honestly, Nevermind, called out the “Not Like Us” hitmaker this week after noticing that he was no longer following him on social media.
“omg just noticed mustard unfollowed me on ig…. Sad day,” he wrote sarcastically on X. “headlining chella must of got to his head.”
Despite unfollowing Gordo, Mustard appeared to catch wind of his post and issued a snarky yet subliminal response on Instagram.
Alongside a caption which read: “We not the same,” the producer posted a video of JAY-Z in an interview saying: “Are you kidding me? Who are you guys talking to? What have you done to even have an opinion on what I been doing? You done nothing to even have an opinion.”

Mustard hasn’t exactly been quiet about his disdain for Drake throughout the 6 God’s beef with Kendrick Lamar which erupted last year.
The multi-platinum producer and DJ graced the stage at Tyler, The Creator‘s Camp Flog Gnaw last November, where he surprised the crowd by appearing to cue up Drizzy’s Take Care hit “Crew Love” with The Weeknd.
Before the song could kick into gear, however, Mustard jumped on the mic and yelled, “Sike!” before quickly pivoting to Kendrick, Future and Metro Boomin‘s “Like That,” the blistering collaboration that ignited the heated feud between the Hip Hop titans.
In an interview with the Los Angeles Times months earlier, the 10 Summers hitmaker took a shot at Drake’s character while ruling out a reunion with his “Who Do You Love?” collaborator.
“I don’t think I want to make a song with that dude. He’s a strange guy,” he said matter-of-factly.
Mustard would also offer Drake some advice on how to bounce back from the beef, saying to Big Boy: “I’m not speaking at Drake or for him, but a lot of shit that’s going on — the tactics, the things that you do just to get attention. You don’t need to do that. Just make music, man. Make good music and you’ll be fine.”
Mustard also made a surprise appearance during Kendrick Lamar’s historic Super Bowl halftime show performance, joining the Compton superstar for his climactic rendition of “TV Off” which he also produced.
