Kelly Clarkson Screams For Vengeance, Charity

It’s not on the “wildly inappropriate” level of Missy Elliott dedicating “One Minute Man” to Aaliyah at the 2001 Video Music Awards, but Kelly Clarkson’s halftime performance at yesterday’s Cowboys-Jets game was certainly full of curious messages. A screamy run-through of the “see ya” troika of “Since U Been Gone,” “Walk Away,” and “Never Again”–in honor of raising awareness of one’s fellow woman? While she’s backed by skimpily clad cheerleaders, which only called more attention to Kelly’s black shroud? Kelly, Kelly. I thought hiring Reba McEntire’s manager would help you not make these sorts of bad decisions, but now I’m starting to worry. Also, really, isn’t there another song off My December that you can pretty up for these sorts of appearances? I know that you’re allegedly working on your big pop comeback, but you could at least try to keep flogging it around town.
