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.”

Brad Paisley has called Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding “one of the least pretentious weddings he’s ever seen”.
The country star attended the ceremony alongside his actress wife, Kimberly Williams-Paisley. They joined around 1,000 guests at New York City’s Madison Square Garden earlier this month as the global pop icon married the American football star.
Although the celebration attracted enormous attention and involved tight security and a stunning makeover of the famous arena, Paisley said the occasion never came across as excessive.
“Ironically, (it) was one of the least pretentious weddings that I've ever seen or ever will see,” Paisley told The Associated Press during an interview. “It meant a lot to be (invited). It was, kind of, a big thank you from her to invite us.”
Paisley, who chose Swift as an opening performer for his tour when she was a teenager in 2007, said he was delighted to be included in what many considered the biggest celebrity wedding of the year.
“They were very clear with the invite, and I took this personally when I got the invite, because in the invite, it said, ‘If you're getting this, you mean a lot to us,’” he revealed.
The musician also explained that guests were not told the wedding’s exact location until the date drew nearer.
“It was really fun to watch the cat and mouse game of, like, ‘We can tell you roughly where it's going to be, we're not gonna say what building... and here's the date. If you're in, we'll tell you more,’” he continued. “I went to my wife, I said, ‘Want to go?’ and she said, ‘Absolutely, we gotta be there!’ So, we did it, it was RSVP yes.”
Other famous attendees included Brad Pitt, Gigi Hadid, Bradley Cooper, Ed Sheeran, Sabrina Carpenter, Hugh Grant, Haim and Tom Hanks.
