-- Kelly Clarkson -
“I'm the perfect amount of guarded. I don't reveal too much, and I never reveal who the songs are about. They are real life. People get that. I date a lot of musicians and they do the same thing. People that work with me - who I write about too - they get it. It's my creative outlet, my therapy.”
-- Kelly Clarkson -
“I think one thing you could probably say for all my albums is that they're all pretty eclectic pop. There's always a little bit of urban influence, some dance, a little bit of country, singer-songwriter, pop-rock. I like everything! On every album you can find that.”
-- Kelly Clarkson -
-
“Even though I'm a pop singer, I really have more the life of a country singer.”
-- Kelly Clarkson
