Kelly Clarkson stopped by Andy Cohen's Clubhouse to discuss her new album, becoming a mom and, of course, 'From Justin To Kelly.'

Piece by piece (and album sale by album sale), Kelly Clarkson is aiming for a high debut next week on the Billboard 200 chart. In fact, it’s looking like she might even debut at #1.

According to the latest sales predictions via Billboard, Piece By Piece “might move around 90,000 album equivalent units” by next week’s chart, which will be revealed next Wednesday. Her closest competitors? The Fifty Shades of Grey soundtrack, which has been selling strong for 3 weeks, as well as this past week’s #1, Big Sean.

Kelly’s last #1 album was 2009’s All I Ever Wanted, followed by Stronger in at #2 in 2011 and her holiday record Wrapped in Red at #3 in 2013. At the very least, it seems the “Heartbeat Song” singer should be debuting somewhere within the Top 3 — just like her past few studio albums.

What do you think of her projected chart feat, and will enough Kelly fans rally to get this one to #1? Sound off in the comments below.
